Mark Zapp presented a resolution from the York Learning Center requesting board review and seeking a vote at the authority level later this month; the resolution would raise the district'level payment from $67,000 to $100,000 and lists a tuition rate of $7,200. Zapp said the IU has budgeted a major renovation to the campus of approximately $50,000,000 and that the additional fee request relates to those capital needs.
Board members asked whether member districts could opt out and what the fiscal impact would be if several districts declined. Zapp said removing a member would require a vote of the full authority and acknowledged he had only just received the latest materials because of an email miscommunication; he offered to gather other districts' votes and return updated information before the board's Aug. 24 voting meeting. "Our fee to the York Learning Center would go from $67,000 to the proposed $100,000, and then the tuition rate of $7,200," he said, adding that the authority had requested the change and that follow-up information would be provided.
