This document presents the findings of a combined Master Facility Plan and 10-Year Health Life Safety Report for District 65 school sites, conducted by StudioGC. The plan outlines an estimated $598.2 million in capital needs projected over the next 49 years, addressing both health and life safety items and broader facility requirements. It incorporates a 4.5% annual cost escalation, considers sustainable solutions like geothermal heating/cooling, includes learning environment elements, and accounts for asbestos abatement and extended building component replacement lifecycles. The objective is to provide the School Board with a detailed understanding of the district's long-term facility needs and facilitate discussion on implementation strategies.

The committee meeting focused on shaping Out-of-School Time (OST) programs, establishing a shared understanding of the subcommittee's charge, and defining an evaluation framework. Discussion topics included the categorization of OST programs into district-funded, community partners, and private partnerships. The committee established an analysis framework centered on four pillars: access and equity, student impact, operational effectiveness, and the quality of community partnerships, with a focus on collecting data to inform future recommendations for cost-effective programming.

The meeting included a review of superintendent remarks, recognition of district staff, and public commentary from community members regarding sustainability, achievement reports, and equity. The board approved updates to the Early Head Start and Head Start Program Governing Bylaws. Additionally, the meeting featured an update on culturally responsive teaching and a comprehensive presentation on the district's Achievement and Accountability Report. The discussion on building safety was postponed to a future date.

The committee discussed the reconciliation between the FY18 tentative and final budgets, noting adjustments in operating revenue due to changes in Corporate Personal Property Replacement Tax. Key updates included the impact of Senate Bill 1947 on state funding and pension cost shifts, the district's financial reserve outlook, and ongoing administration transparency efforts through community public sessions. The committee also acknowledged the upcoming public hearing regarding the budget.

The committee reviewed the meeting outline, data highlights, and the TregoEd process for King Arts. The work session included group discussions to analyze data and address confusion regarding the development of King Arts alternatives. The committee focused on developing criteria for the success of King Arts based on available data and discussed next steps regarding future meeting formats and clarity of outcomes.
