Please allow me to clear up tonights meeting. It is technically one meeting. Workshops are typically separate meetings. Tonight we start with a workshop then go into two formal agenda items.

You should also know that Kolb Elem. will NOT be a highlighted topic tonight, but will be at the next scheduled regular meeting. As stated above in another comment, the workshop is setting a budget review process and the two items are board meeting procedures and Measure L advisory committee structure. Hope that clarifies.

One meeting broken up into a work study session and a special board meeting. It appears Public Comment is after the work study session. Here is the link to the agenda for tomorrow’s meeting.

Looks like there is one meeting on the district web-site and not two. If we want to hear or comment about Kolb Elementary should we show up at 6:30 or at the second meeting – if there is a second meeting as Mr. Ledahl says? This is confusing or what?

Tomorrow’s Special Board meeting can be found on the district website under School Board Agendas. Here is the specific one for tomorrow: http://dublin.csbaagendaonline.net/cgi-bin/WebObjects/dublin-eAgenda.woa/wa/showMeeting

There will be a board workshop at 6:30 PM whose purpose is to discuss the assembling of the budget committee called Financial Advisory Committee. Here the board will review and discuss the process to be used for addressing the creation of a budget in the face of state cuts.

This will be followed by the actual meeting where two topics will be discussed. First is a review of the Board Meeting Schedule and Board Room Useage for 2009. Second is Measure L Citizens Oversight Committee – Selection Process and Guidelines.

Hope this helps.

I hope everyone is planning to attend the Jan 6 meeting. Perhaps there we can get specific information on how to attend and participate. We need to make sure they build Kolb so we are not so overcrowded. See John Z other posting – overcrowded by as much as 450 students?

HHHmmm... I watched the last school board meeting Mr. Ledahl and it was clear that you opposed a special meeting to discuss the budget crisis. You seemed to oppose almost anything the others wanted. Maybe that is why they don't post here - because you do.

You are right (sort of), there was a special meeting to bring the new members up to speed but the district calendar on the website lists it as Dec 15.

So, now that John Z brings out the date you come out with some info.

I am glad that the rest of the board didn't listen to you or we would never have that meeting.

Thanks John Z for bringing this to our attention.
