Discussion
of Proposed Capital Project for County School Projects and Other County
Projects: The School Board
and the Board of Supervisors discussed proposed capital projects and heard a
presentation on debt service and availability of funding for projects.
Mrs. Morikawa asked if the cost estimates
presented for schools include land acquisition. Mr. Goodman said the estimates do not include land. Mrs. Morikawa inquired about available real
estate. Mr. Goodman told School Board members that the county is aggressively
pursuing property for the two elementary schools. He added that he believes these land issues will be resolved in a
short period of time.
Mr. Politis said the figures for the two
elementary schools seem inflated. Ms.
Biggs inquired about proposed capacities for the elementary schools. Mr. Politis asked if land would have to be
acquired for the Auburn project. Mr.
Berenato replied that this would depend on what is done in that area and how
the land is zoned.
Members of the Board of Supervisors agreed to
discuss the county projects and the amount of funding which could be made
available to the school division at its next meeting.
