Notes and funding
- The board identified capital reserves as the funding source for a potential RLPS enrollment purchase if it is later approved; the board chose to table the authorization until further study. - The METS contract renewal and the facility rental rate change are effective immediately as board actions taken at the March 26 meeting.
Ending: The board adjourned following the votes. Staff were directed to return with follow-up materials on the budget, and a full-board meeting with RLPS was scheduled in April.
