Subcommittee votes: traffic study referral, tabling capital and nutrition items, job description approvals

Several formal actions at the March 9 meeting produced immediate next steps for the full committee and administration.

Traffic study referral: A motion to refer a district‑wide traffic study (RFP for studies at all schools) to the full committee passed on a roll call. The committee said the RFP should request proposals for traffic studies and that staff should bring final contractor deliverables back for action.

Tabling of capital plan and nutrition presentations: The committee voted to table items 3.05 (capital plan) and 3.06 (nutrition) until the next monthly meeting and requested that nutrition administration appear then to respond to outstanding questions.

Job descriptions and personnel items: Committee members approved a new carpenter/painter job description with flexible/second‑shift options and a $2/hour differential for second‑shift work; the union had been consulted and indicated agreement. Members passed that motion by roll call. The refrigeration/appliance technician item was tabled so members could review backup invoices and better assess which contracted repairs could be handled in‑house.

Transportation referral: Staff asked the committee to refer a parent‑app proposal (GPS/notifications) to the full committee for procurement review; members supported referring that item for a fuller cost and contract review.

Adjournment: The subcommittee adjourned after votes to refer and table several items; members set many of the referred matters for discussion at next month's meeting.
