3. Public Participation
Mr. Andy Wecker

This is a meeting of the Board of Education in public for the purpose of conducting the School District's business and is not considered a public community meeting. This is a time for public participation during the meeting as indicated in the agenda. (Please reference criteria for Public Participation, which is attached to the agenda.)

Minutes

  • Brian Christensen of 7177 Lott Road, Sunbury came in late to participate in public participation - he spoke after the final business item votes.
  • Mr. Christensen asked if the Board had already settled on the ballot.
  • Mr. Wecker indicated the Board is moving through the process and stated that Public Participation is not for questions and answers but for a person to share thoughts, comments or concerns. He said that he would be more than happy to talk with him outside of the meeting.
  • Mr. Christensen again asked if the decision had already been made and would it matter what he had to say.
  • Mr. Schneider shared that Public Participation is not dialoguing with the Board that it is for the participant to talk and if questions are to arise that can be discussed outside of the meeting.
  • Mr. Christensen stated that he worked for a janitorial and maintenance supply company, which a lot of his clients are school districts. With this experience, he feels that the overhead and administrative costs for the intermediate and middle school are extremely high for each building both only housing two grades. He doesn't feel that building a whole new high school just to have a new high school is the answer. He feels there are other options, such as adding on to perfectly good infrastructures. 
  • Mtr. Wecker stated that several of the Board members were on the Facilities Planning Committee and would be happy to speak to him outside of the Board meeting.
