SO I MEAN THAT, THOSE SAFETY DRILL SCHEDULE WAS ACTUALLY GIVEN OUT WHEN WE DID THAT PE ON SAFETY AND SECURITY. SO I'M NOT EXACTLY SURE IF THERE'S SOME OTHER TOPIC THAT NEEDED TO BE ADDRESSED, BUT THAT THE ACTUAL DRILL SCHEDULE IS PUBLIC INFORMATION. SO IT'S REALLY, IT SHOULD BE A SCHEDULE THAT'S DIVULGED IN PUBLIC. I DON'T EVEN KNOW IF YOU NEED TO EVEN HAVE IT ON THERE CAUSE IT WAS ALREADY DONE IN THAT PE SO I WONDER IF THERE'S SOMETHING ELSE, IF YOU STARTED ASKING QUESTIONS THAT TAKE YOU DOWN ANOTHER ROAD. YEAH, THAT'S TRUE. I WAS GOING TO SAY MAYBE INSTEAD OF NOTATING, IT S THE SCHEDULE WE SHOULD JUST PUT, SAY, WELL, WE COULD PUT IT WITH RESPECT TO THE FOIA. IS THAT UNDER 30 DASH FOUR DASH 20 C, IT SAYS INFORMATION RELATING TO SECURITY PLANS AND DEVICES UTILIZED BY PUBLIC BODY IS REQUIRED TO BE CLOSE TO THE PUBLIC. SO WE COULD, I GUESS WE COULD SAY INFORMATION RELATED TO SECURITY PLANS. OKAY. THAT WOULD BE WHAT THE CONVERSATION IS GOING TO BE INFORMATION RELATED TO SECURITY OR SECURITY DRILL SCHEDULE AND SECURITY PLAN. I'M I'M NOT SURE. I WOULD JUST SAY SECURITY PLAN. YEAH.

SO DOCTOR ARE THINGS THAT STAFF WOULD BE REASONABLE TO DO WOULD BE 30 MINUTE THAT THERE'S NOTHING ELSE UNDER, UM, UNDER THE EXECUTIVE SESSION, IS THAT CORRECT? NO. OKAY. SO LET'S ADJUST THE TIME THIRTIES. OKAY. AND I'M CHANGING IT TO INFORMATION RELATING TO SECURITY PLAN. RIGHT. THEN WE COME OUT INTO PUBLIC SESSION IF POSSIBLE ACTION, AGENDA, BUDGET, LEGIONS, MOMENT OF SILENCE, STATEMENT OF MEDIA NOTIFICATION. THEN WE HAVE OUR FIRST PUBLIC COMMENTS AND WE HAVE THE CHAIRMAN'S REPORT AT THIS TIME. I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING IN PARTICULAR THAT I CAN THINK OF THAT WILL BE UNDER THERE, BUT I MAY BY TUESDAY OF NEXT WEEK. UM, AND WE HAVE THE APPROVAL OF THE MINUTES FROM OUR LAST BOARD MEETING. OKAY. THANKS. ALL RIGHT. AND THEN WE HAVE THE COMMITTEE REPORTS, AD HOC BOARD, SELF EVALUATION, FINANCE OPERATIONS WITH A CONSTRUCTION UPDATE. OPERATIONS MIGHT HAVE MORE, BUT I KNOW FOR SURE WE HAVE THE CONSTRUCTION OF DATA ON THERE. ONE OF THE PE WHATEVER IT IS, HOPEFULLY OKAY. ON TO THE CONTINUATION, BUT I THINK THAT'S FROM YEAH. THERE'S THAT BECAUSE OF THE CONSTRUCTION UPDATE OR IS THAT I NEED TO TAKE THAT OFF. OKAY. ANYWAY. YEAH. OKAY. UM, I'LL LET YOU GO THROUGH THESE. SO WE HAVE A MAP UPSTATE ABOUT, UH, ESSENTIALLY, UH, CURRENT RESULT NATION AND THEN, UH, YOU KNOW, HOW WE'RE GOING TO WORK OUT THINGS WE'RE PUTTING IN PLACE TO SUPPORT STUDENT NEEDS BASED ON THE CURRENT CONVICTIONS. SO THAT SHOULD BE TITLED MAP UPDATE. OKAY. THAT'S FINE. AND THEN, UH, WE HAVE A TSI PRIORITY SCHOOLS UPDATE. SO ROBIN, UM, I WOULD GUESS, UH, IF YOU'RE ON THE AGENDA THAT THOSE ARE TWO SEPARATE THINGS. SO MAYBE JUST SAY TSI AND PRIORITY SCHOOLS UPDATE. AS RIGHT NOW, IT LOOKS LIKE TO MAKE TWO BULLETS UP. IT'S MAKING IT CLEAR THAT IT'S TWO SEPARATE ITEMS WE'LL DO THEN, UH, THE, UH, PACK UP. THEY DON'T MEET UNTIL AFTER THIS MEETING. OKAY. SO NOTHING PROBABLY BETTER SERVED ON THE NEXT ON NOVEMBER. SO LET ME, UM, I'M JUST LOOKING AT THE FUTURE AGENDA TOPICS. LET ME PULL THOSE UP RIGHT QUICK. YEAH. I HAVE NO HARD COPY HERE IN FRONT OF ME. IT SAYS OCTOBER, NOVEMBER. YES. THE FRONT PAGE. OKAY. SO WE'LL SAY NOVEMBER. OKAY. SO THAT WOULD BE LIKE NOVEMBER 10TH, THEN THEY'RE NOT READY YET. OKAY. UM, THEN UNDER THE STORE RESPONSIBILITIES, WE HAVE THE LOVELY, UH, ACTION REPORT. WE HAVE A HUNDRED K REPORT AND WE SHOULD PROBABLY HAVE AN IMPACT FEE UPDATE FOR THAT. THAT WAS ONE OF THE THINGS WE HAD AS UNDERSTANDING TOPICS [00:15:01] FROM THE TIME YOU HAVE ANY MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THAT AT THE MOMENT SHE DOES NOT. BY THEN SHE MADE THAT THE COUNTY COUNCIL MEETING I CAN READ AND HEAR THAT TYPE OF UPDATE THAT CAN BE HANDLED BY EMAIL. I GUESS IT HAVE TO BE AT A PUBLIC MEETING. WELL, I THINK THE PUBLIC WOULD LIKE TO KNOW THE PLUS WE ALSO HAD A BOARD MEMBER SENT REQUESTS ABOUT THAT TODAY TO BE ON THE AGENDA. I DON'T HONESTLY THINK WE CAN. WE DON'T KNOW WHETHER THERE WILL BE ADEQUATE INFORMATION FOR AN UPDATE OR NOT. SO LET'S HAVE A PLACEHOLDER. YEAH. SO WHAT IS IT? WHAT ARE WE ADDING? YEAH. OKAY. RIGHT, RIGHT. YEAH, EXACTLY. THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT, THEN WE'RE ON TO, I'LL LET YOU CONTINUE, BUT THE MOMENT I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING. SO WOULD YOU LIKE THAT REMOVE, REMOVE OTHER MATTERS OR JUST CALL FOR OTHER MATTERS? DO YOU HAVE SOMETHING? OKAY, SO LET'S HOLD OFF FOR A SECOND. I DON'T ANSWER. ALL RIGHT UP MR. SMITH. SO WE'RE NOT DISCUSSING ANY COVID-19 UPDATES. I DON'T HAVE A PARTICULAR UPDATE AT THE MOMENT WHERE WE'RE IN HYBRID. TALKED ABOUT THAT LAST WEEK. UH, I DON'T, I DON'T HAVE ANYTHING IN PARTICULAR. WELL, I JUST KNOW THAT SOME OF THE OTHER DISTRICTS WERE, I MEAN, OTHER OTHER PLACES WE'RE SEEING THE NUMBERS GO UP AND I'M WATCHING THE NUMBERS ARE GOING UP IN SOUTH CAROLINA. SO I THINK WE SHOULD LEAVE WITH THAT. IT'S CLOSE TO THE BOARD MEETING AND DECIDE THEN WHETHER WE SHOULD THE BROTHER, WE DON'T WANT TO LEAVE. I HAVE IT A LOT, BUT I THINK AS OF NOW I SHOULD STATE WITH THE NUMBERS GOING UP RIGHT NOW. BUT THEN ONCE I BEGAN TO GO BACK UP IN SOUTH CAROLINA. SO I MEAN, WE, WE NEVER KNOW WHAT THE CHANGE COULD, COULD POSSIBLY BE IF YOU WON'T LEAVE IT ON THERE, THAT'S FINE. AND, UM, YOU KNOW, WE CAN, AS WE GET CLOSER TO THE MEETING, IF THERE'S NOTHING, NOTHING, NOTHING TO ADD OR SAY, WE CAN REMOVE IT, I GUESS, RIGHT BEFORE WE PUBLISH. RIGHT. THAT'S WHAT YOU'RE SAYING. YEAH, THAT'D BE FINE. YEAH, THAT'S FINE. SO, UH, IF YOU, IF YOU LEAVE OTHER MATTERS AND LEAVE THE COVID-19 UPDATE ON THERE, AND THEN AS WE GET CLOSER, BEFORE WE PUBLISH THE AGENDA, THERE'S NOTHING TO ADD. IF THERE'S NOTHING THAT WE CAN REMOVE IT AT THAT TIME. THANK YOU, MADAM CHAIR. UM, I THINK YOU NEED TO LEAVE IT ON THERE BECAUSE I THINK AT A MINIMUM WE WOULD WANT TO GIVE AN UPDATE ON CASES IN OUR SCHOOLS. UM, CAUSE I KNOW THE PUBLIC IS VERY INTERESTED IN HOW MANY CASES WE HAVE IN OUR SCHOOLS. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. SO THEN WE'RE DOWN TO THE BOARD BUSINESS ACTION AND UM, UH, YEAH, THERE'S, THERE'S UM, KIND OF, I THINK THIS MIGHT BE WORDED A LITTLE BETTER [00:20:01] POSTPONE PROM COMING OUT OF EXECUTIVE SESSION AND THE LAST DAY, THE LAST ONE BULLSHIT PULSE BALL FROM COLONEL GUYER OUT OF EXECUTIVE SESSION ON OCTOBER SIX. NOPE. NO, THAT WOULD BE THE FIRST BUSINESS ITEM. AND THEN THE NEXT THING THERE'S DISCUSSION OF CHANGING THE DATE OF NOVEMBER WORK SESSION BECAUSE SEVERAL MEMBERS HAVE APPROACHED ME ABOUT THAT AND ASKED ME TO HAVE THAT ON THE AGENDA. SO WE WILL, THEY WANT TO LOOK AT THE FEATURE TOPIC. YOU WANT ME TO PUT THAT UP NOW TO SEE IF YOU WANT TO? SO, UM, I HAVE, UH, ON THE USE OF, OR WELL BRANCH, UH, ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL REMEDIATION PROJECT FROM THAT WHOLE, SO THAT WE NEED THAT. WE NEED TO HAVE AN ITEM ON HERE. OKAY. SO YOU SAID 80% BONDS BONDS FOR BRANCH REMEDIATION WORK. OKAY. WELL RIGHT. ELEMENTARY AND WHALE BRANCH. MIDDLE. YEAH. MIDDLE SCHOOLS. MEDIATION WORK. OKAY. IF YOU GET THAT YES. USE OF 8% FUNDS FOR BALL BRANCH ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL READING ME MEDIATION WORK FOR MEDIATION. YOU CAN BE MORE SPECIFIC BEFORE MEDIATION OR WE CAN SAY FOR REMEDIATION WORK, MEDIATION WORK RELATED, RELATED TO MOLD ISSUES BECAUSE, OKAY, SO THEN THERE'S THREE, THREE ITEMS UNDER THERE. YEP. YOU HAD ON THEIR REVIEW OF THE DISTRICT'S EMERGENCY PLANS USING 8% FUNDS. DO YOU WANT THAT ON THIS MEETING OR ANOTHER ONE? YEAH. WE'VE ALREADY GOT QUITE A BIT ON HERE, BUT I'M GOING TO CHANGE THIS TO NOVEMBER. I DON'T THINK SO. I THINK THAT THAT COULD FIT ON HERE. THIS MEETING HAS THAT FULL SAY NEW SUPERINTENDENTS BEFORE IT IS PROBABLY PRETTY LENGTHY IT'S THE PRIORITY SCHOOL UPDATE IS INSTEAD OF LINDSEY, IT'S JUST GONNA BE LIKE SCHOOLS AT PRESENT THE MAP UPDATE. YOU JUST SAID, YOU'RE GOING TO TAKE MEASURES ON WHAT THE DATA IS. THAT'S GOING TO BE FAIRLY LENGTHY. I THINK THE IMPACT OF THE UPDATE IS GOING TO BE LIKE, YEAH, LET'S SEE. I GUESS, LOOKING AT THE END OF THE THING HERE, I THINK THE OPERATIONS COMMITTEE IT'S GOING TO BE, WE ALSO HAVE THE CONSTRUCTION UPDATE. THAT'S USUALLY 45 MINUTES. [00:25:01] AND THEN WE HAVE A LONG, LONG LIST OF THINGS THAT MAY OR MAY NOT COME FORWARD. WHAT'S KIND OF TALKING ABOUT EMERGENCY FUNDS WITH, I THINK THE TARGET OF THIS IS SO FOR, UM, HURRICANES AND OTHER EMERGENCIES. SO I THINK IT'S A LITTLE DIFFERENT TARGET. UM, IF I'M INTERPRETING WHAT INTERNAL GOVERNMENT WAS AIMING AT AND WE MIGHT'VE DODGED THAT BULLET THIS YEAR. SO I DON'T THINK THERE'S URGENCY TO THAT YET. KNOCK ON WOOD FOR ME. OH, I GOT A SYNTHETIC STUFF HERE IN NOVEMBER. WHAT DATE IS THAT? IT'S THE 10TH OF NOVEMBER. IT'S NOT THE SAME NIGHT AS ELECTION NIGHT MARINE CORPS BIRTHDAY. IT SEEMS WHAT MAYBE THAT, UM, IT DOES SEEM TO ME THAT WE HAVE A VERY LENGTHY AGENDA ALREADY. UM, WE ARE GOING TO COVER, COVER THAT TOPIC, MOLD, THE MOLD REMEDIATION DISCUSSION WOULD BE GOOD TO HAVE THAT WORK SESSION IN NOVEMBER. I THINK THAT'S PROBLEM THERE. AND IT'S AN AWFUL LOT. I THINK IT'S TOO MUCH TO PUT DOWN. AND WHEN SHE SAYS IN ONE SESSION PERSONALLY, THIS IS, CAN YOU SPEAK UP A LITTLE BIT? YES. SORRY. THERE'S ALMOST RATHER SAY, UM, ALREADY. LET'S SEE HOW IT GOES AND THEN IT OR NOT AT ALL FOR NOT SEEMS LIKE A LOT. OKAY. THAT'S FINE. I'M FINE WITH THAT. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. AND THEN WE LOOK AT THE FUTURE AGAIN. IF EVERYBODY CAN TAKE A LOOK AT THOSE SPEEDING, WE'LL SCHEDULE A SET SCHEDULE. WE'RE LOOKING AT THEM. I PLAN ON NEXT MEETING WILL BE NOVEMBER THE REVIEW OF THE DISTRICT EMERGENCY PLAN EFFICIENCY STUDY. YEAH, WE ALREADY HAVE WE ALREADY. YEAH. SO WHEN WE COVER AN ITEM THAT'S ON HERE, DOES IT STAY ON HERE OR I CAN TAKE IT OFF THE GRANT, THE FUNDING PROCESS WE'LL REVISIT IT LATER, BUT WE DIDN'T COVER. WE COVERED, FOR EXAMPLE, THE BOARD VIDEOTAPES THAT WAS COVERED, GOES TO THE OPERATIONS COMMITTEE FIRST AND THEN THEY BRING IT FORWARD TO THE PORTFOLIO. RIGHT. UM, SO THE LAST, UM, THE LAST TWO WERE THINGS THAT CAME OUT OF THE BOARD MEETING, UH, FOR FUTURE TOPICS. SO THE LESSONS LEARNED THEY STAY THERE. THEN MALES WAS THE, YET THE NEXT ONE. SO THE LESSON LEARNED ON THE QUIET TIMES, THAT SEEMS LIKE A THING. ONCE AGAIN, WORK SESSION, THAT WOULD BE A GOOD DISCUSSION OF WHAT DID WE LEARN? HOW ARE WE GOING TO CHANGE? THAT'LL TAKE YOU AT LEAST AN HOUR MO PROBABLY LONGER. YEAH. THANK YOU. AND THEN YEAH, THE MOTION THAT THE POLICY COMMITTEE REVISIT THE PROCESS. I DON'T THINK THAT WAS EMOTION. I THINK IT WAS A SUGGESTION. AND I TALKED TO MEL [00:30:01] AND SAID, WE REALLY SHOULD DISCUSS THAT DURING THE FIRST READING WHEN WE GET TO THAT SECTION OF THE POLICY. YEAH. SO THAT WILL BE FIRST READING. OKAY. THE LAST ONE ON HERE, UPDATE ON IMPACT. EXACTLY. SO I PUT IN OCTOBER 20 OTHER THINGS ON THE LIST THAT I DON'T HAVE. WELL, I CAN'T THINK OF ANY I'LL REMOVE THE ONES THAT WE ALREADY HAVE AND THEN PUT THE DATES ON THE NEW ONES. SO I GOT EMAILS FROM CONSTITUENTS ASKING ABOUT THE START TIMES THAT THAT MADE ME VISITED LAST, YOU KNOW, BEFORE COVID PAIN, I THINK IT WAS WITH THE OPERATIONS, MAYBE IN OPERATIONS IS GOING TO ARRANGE SOME, UM, PUBLIC TO COMMENT BY CLUSTER 30. WE JUST WE'LL GET BACK TO THEM. SO TO ME THAT IT WAS STILL IN THE OFFER. WASN'T IT STILL IN THE OPERATIONS COMMITTEE, DAVID, YOU HAVE A GOOD RECOLLECTION OF WHERE IT WAS. WE DID, WE DID THE SURVEY, WE WERE GOING TO SCHEDULE COMMUNITY MEETINGS, BUT WE NEVER DID. AND THEN START TIMES BECAME RIGHT, BECAUSE OF COVID. SO WE'RE GOING TO RE YOU KNOW, WE SHOULD REVISIT THAT FOR NEXT YEAR. AND NOW WE, WE, WE CAN'T HAVE THE COMMUNITY MEETINGS UNTIL THE COVID CLEAR. SO THAT'S PRETTY MUCH WHERE WE ARE OR RENTAL HOLD UNTIL, UNTIL THE VIRUS CLEARS SO THAT WE CAN HAVE A NEXT STEP, WHICH IS THE COMMUNITY MEETINGS. I THINK EVERY CLUSTER WAS GOING TO HAVE THEIR OWN MEETINGS. RIGHT. SO THAT WOULD BE OUR RESPONSE. SO, I MEAN, THAT'S THE RESPONSE I'M GIVING TO PEOPLE THAT ASK ME ABOUT IT. I THINK THE SAME AS YOU, MAYBE SOME SEPARATE, OKAY. LOOKS LIKE THAT WOULD BE COMPLETION OF THIS AGENDA. SO THE NEXT STEP, THE NEXT AGENDA SETTING MEETING, CORRECT? MONDAY, NOVEMBER 2ND. YEAH. AND THAT'S THE NIGHT WE'RE ELECTION SCHEDULED FOR NOVEMBER 2ND AT FOUR. IF THAT WORKS FOR EVERYBODY. YEAH. WORKS FOR ME AS WELL. OKAY. ALL RIGHT. SO THAT WILL BE OUR NEXT AGENDA SETTING MEETING. AND SO I'VE GOTTEN SEVERAL REQUESTS FROM BOARD MEMBERS THAT OUR HARD WORK SESSION IS THE FIRST WEEKEND OF THE THANKSGIVING WEEK, WHICH IS NOT GOOD FOR A NUMBER OF PEOPLE. AND SO THE PREFERENCE SEEMS SO FAR. WHAT I'VE HEARD IS TO MOVE THE WORK SECTION EARLIER WEEKEND. THAT'S SOMETHING THAT'S GOING TO COME UP AT THE 20TH MEETING BY BOAT. I HAVE 14, I HAVE SCHEDULED A SESSION MEETING. UH, I CAN MOVE IT IF THEY CAN MOVE IT, I CAN, UM, SEE IF THEY'LL GET [00:35:01] ME A DIFFERENT DIFFERENT DAY, RIGHT. OR I COULD STEP OUT A LITTLE BIT, WELL, MAYBE CONTINUE TO COME BACK AND FORTH DIFFERENT GROUPS OUT IN THE COMMUNITY THAT ARE, UH, I THINK I CAN DO ONE OF THOSE. SO THE 13TH WILL BE FUN. I DON'T THINK WE SHOULD BE DISCUSSING THIS. NOW YOU CAN START THINKING. YEAH, I AGREE. * This transcript was created by voice-to-text technology.
