Board adopts resolutions to pursue state School Facilities Program funding
Summary
The board adopted two resolutions authorizing applications to the State Allocation BoardSchool Facilities Program: general SFP application (Res. B24-2506) and facility hardship/seismic mitigation (Res. B24-2507). Each resolution requires a five-year master plan to be approved and submitted within 90 days of application processing.
The governing board adopted two resolutions authorizing the district to apply for School Facilities Program funding from the State Allocation Board.
The board approved resolution B24-2506, which authorizes filing an application to the School Facilities Program (SFP). The resolution requires the district to submit a five-year school facilities master plan, approved by the governing board, within 90 days of application processing.
The board also approved resolution B24-2507 to apply for SFP funding targeted at facility hardship and seismic mitigation. That resolution carries the same requirement that the district submit a five-year master plan and acknowledges the districtmust accept program conditions if awarded funds.
Board discussion noted the master plan must be developed and submitted within the statutory timeframe after application processing; staff said the master plan is in development and the district will return to the board with specifics. Board members asked about eligibility criteria for hardship funds; staff said several criteria apply, including the status of bond funding encumbrances, and that the districtwould assess whether it meets the hardship criteria before pursuing specific projects.
Votes and motions: the board moved and seconded adoption of each resolution; both resolutions passed. (Motion for B24-2506: adopt resolution to apply to SFP; outcome: adopted. Motion for B24-2507: adopt resolution to apply to SFP hardship/mitigation; outcome: adopted.)
Ending: Staff said they will continue developing the five-year master plan and present a timeline and recommended project priorities to the board at a later meeting.
