Local resident praises board's cost-cutting and urges early RFI transparency
Summary
Richard Sclaren, a 28-year resident and business owner, thanked the board for reducing the LES proposal's cost and urged the district to publish RFI results and comparisons before a fall vote so the community can see potential provider options.
During public forum, Richard Sclaren (S14), who identified himself as a 28-year resident and as representing Goldens Bridal, praised the board and superintendent for presenting a lower-cost alternative to implement UPK and for maintaining the gym for community recreation.
"The presentation tonight confirms... there is a more financially cost effective way to do that," Sclaren said, and he urged the district to publish RFI responses, suggesting that doing so "will... confirm that this might be the best path forward." Trustees received the comment and noted staff will continue meetings with RFI respondents and additional community outreach.
