DISCUSSION 

BP/AR 1340: Public Records Act

Participants looked at the use of technology policy and reviewed language of proposed PRA policy. This may come back for action based on today’s input. 

Wellness Policy

Jezra Thompson explained that as our lunch program requires us to have a wellness policy. Participants reviewed the existing related policies and discussed what should be captured. This item will come back to the committee in January 2018.

Deletion of AR 1312.3

AR 1312.3 has been replaced by AR 1311. This will go on the Nov. 15 meeting agenda for information. (attached without track changes)

LCAP
Daniels explained that for the last 3 years the LCFF budget has been underspent by at least $200,000. It doesn’t make sense to continue building an already healthy reserve. The goal is to use reserve to create ongoing spending. Participants discussed and reviewed language with respect to supplemental funds.

Staff will be bringing an analysis of underspent funds. 

Update Policy Calendar
Policy Calendar was updated.
