Updates on the Fight for Quality Public Education in Brevard County, FL

2023-09-12 - School Board Work Session

0:00 (upbeat music)

0:30 (upbeat music continues)

5:33 - Good morning.

5:34 The September 12th, 2023 board work session is now in order.

5:37 Paul roll call, please.

5:38 - Mr. Susan.

5:39 - Here.

5:40 - Ms. Wright.

5:41 - Here.

5:41 - Mr. Trent.

5:42 - Here.

5:43 - Ms. Campbell.

5:44 - Here.

5:45 - Ms. Jenkins.

5:46 - Here.

5:46 - Please stand for the Pledge of Allegiance.

5:50 - I pledge allegiance to the flag

5:52 of the United States of America

5:54 and to the Republic for which it stands,

5:57 one nation under God, indivisible, with liberty

6:00 and justice for all.

6:03 - Thank you for everybody that’s watching today.

6:06 We’ve got a 7,000 policy review.

6:08 We added a public speaking discussion afterwards.

6:11 And then any quick board comments,

6:14 wanted the board to know that Dr. Rendell moved forward,

6:16 which was much needed in allowing staff to get ahead

6:20 of our policies because, you know,

6:23 they’re the ultimately the ones that make the recommendations

6:25 and stuff like that.

6:26 And if we have anything to add.

6:28 So Dr. Rendell had our three individuals

6:30 that head up the departments for each one of them

6:33 that we’re covering today.

6:34 So the process is gonna go that I’m going to read

6:37 the actual policy, ask Dr. Rendell if he has anything

6:41 to add, and then if we have anything to add for them,

6:43 then we’re gonna move on to the next one,

6:45 if that’s okay with you guys.

6:47 Okay.

6:47 - Yeah, my password is making me reset,

6:51 like at this very moment.

6:54 - So you need a minute?

6:55 - No, we’re good, just keep going.

6:58 I have my notes.

6:59 - Okay.

7:00 - I’ll work on that.

7:01 - Okay.

7:02 So the first policy is gonna be 7100 facilities planning.

7:06 BPS has a current policy.

7:08 NEOLA has a separate update.

7:12 Facilities recommendation, Dr. Rendell.

7:16 - Thank you, Mr. Chair.

7:17 I’m gonna have Ms. Han respond to the next few of these.

7:21 And we don’t have this process perfected.

7:23 We don’t necessarily have a recommendation

7:25 for each policy that’s on the list,

7:27 but for many of them, we do.

7:29 So we’re gonna give you the recommendations that we have

7:32 for the ones that we do have recommendations for.

7:34 So Sue.

7:36 - Yes, thank you, sir.

7:37 For 7100, we would recommend that the board refer that

7:40 to staff for some analysis and updating.

7:42 We did update the administrative procedure in 2022.

7:46 That was a detailed guide for the development

7:48 of the student combination plan, and that’s working fine.

7:51 But the policy language may want to look at some

7:55 of the language in NEOLA as well as introduce some language

7:58 around charter and choice and how those play

8:00 into facilities planning.

8:02 So I’d like an opportunity to look

8:04 on at this one a little bit.

8:06 - So the recommendation is to allow staff to look it over

8:09 and then bring it back to us.

8:10 Does anybody else from the board wish to make any comments?

8:13 Also would like to recommend that if you feel

8:15 like you have something that you may have missed

8:17 or something like that, please feel free to reach out

8:20 to Miss Sue Hand during the process of her review

8:23 after we leave the meeting today.

8:24 If you feel like you have to say something,

8:26 that would be good too.

8:27 So at this point, does anybody else wish

8:29 to speak about 7100?

8:31 - Yeah, just briefly.

8:32 I noticed in letter B, you wanna talk about the microphone?

8:35 Oh, yeah.

8:36 And it says that you’ll report to the board

8:40 on the enrollment by grades during the school year monthly.

8:43 I think we, or we used to get updates.

8:47 I can’t remember what they’re called, but we get email.

8:49 But it’s not broken down by grades.

8:51 So maybe we could refine that language

8:53 ‘cause I don’t really need to know every month

8:56 how many fifth graders, how many fourth graders,

8:57 but more along the lines of the students count.

9:01 That’s not the name of the document,

9:03 but that we get maybe make that more along the lines

9:06 of what we’re actually doing.

9:07 It does break it down regionally and by grade bands

9:12 or elementary, middle, all that.

9:14 But I don’t wanna put something in policy

9:17 that we’re not holding everybody to

9:18 or would want to hold everybody to.

9:20 - Yeah, I’d be happy to do that.

9:22 And then the other thing I wanted to look at

9:23 is the state law requires us to provide information

9:29 every so often.

9:30 I feel like it’s monthly about the number

9:33 of available seats in each grade

9:35 that has to be published on our website.

9:37 So that may play into what we put into policy as well

9:40 that we at least respond to state law, which we are doing.

9:44 - If I could pull up the yellow ones in front of me,

9:46 which I will be able to in a few minutes.

9:47 I think it gave us some choices monthly

9:49 by semester or whatever.

9:50 I’m cool with semester or whatever.

9:54 - All good.

9:54 Anybody else wish to comment?

9:56 Okay, rolling on to Dr. Rendell.

9:59 You got the Mr. Hand’s gonna,

10:02 how do you want me to follow up?

10:03 - She’s gonna go to all the way to 7120, 7130 actually.

10:07 - And you’d like me, you need me after every meeting,

10:10 after every one to kind of mention,

10:12 “Hey, here’s what I heard.”

10:13 Or do you feel like you’re comfortable about-

10:15 - I think we’re recording it.

10:16 So I think we’re good.

10:17 - Perfect, all right.

10:18 7101 building permits in the code enforcement office.

10:20 Dr. Rendell.

10:22 - Yep, Ms. Hand’s gonna take, like I said,

10:23 all the way to 7130.

10:26 - Okay.

10:27 - Again, we’d like you to refer this one to staff.

10:30 I would like to look at some type of a hybrid

10:32 between what BPS has and NEOLA.

10:35 We contract our building official services right now.

10:38 So I may want to broaden the language

10:40 to just is explicit about allowing for that.

10:44 I’d also wanna check the building code reference.

10:46 It’s in NEOLA, I think it’s updated.

10:48 So there’s a couple of things

10:49 that I wanted to look at with this one

10:50 and nothing major in terms of our operations,

10:54 but I do wanna have an opportunity

10:55 to have the policy reflect our actual work.

10:58 - Okay, does anybody else wish to comment on this policy?

11:02 Hearing none, we’ll move on to 7110 student accommodations.

11:06 Ms. Hand.

11:07 - Yes, 7110 as a policy, in my opinion, is fine as is.

11:13 I do think the administrative procedure,

11:16 the boundary change procedure was updated in April of 2022,

11:21 and that procedure is working well, so that’s fine.

11:24 The administrative procedures around school closures

11:28 have not been updated in some time.

11:30 We did not update on that in 2022.

11:32 I think those need to be updated,

11:35 but I wanted to go through the facility planning process

11:38 that we’re about to get started shortly,

11:40 and that would probably be part of that process.

11:44 So in terms of the policy update,

11:45 I think the policy is okay as is,

11:47 but this particular procedure does need to be updated.

11:51 - Would you like to send us the old copier?

11:53 Would you like us to wait

11:54 until you make a recommendation for a new one?

11:56 - I think you might as well wait,

11:58 ‘cause I do think that the procedure

12:00 really needs to be quite different than what it is now.

12:03 - Okay.

12:05 All right, next one up is 7110AP,

12:09 school attendance boundary procedures,

12:11 closure scope, school closure analysis.

12:13 I understand, I understand you guys.

12:15 Are we all okay with the current way

12:17 that we’re gonna do it, is this update 7110, Ms. Han?

12:20 And those will all be contained inside of there?

12:22 - Yes, so 7110, the policy I think is okay.

12:26 - Just wanna make sure I’ve got this list

12:27 I’m going through.

12:28 - Yep, so the 7110 administrative procedure is okay as is,

12:34 and 7110A and B administrative procedure needs,

12:38 both of those need to be updated.

12:40 - Okay, next one up is 7130,

12:42 implementation and management of school concurrency.

12:45 Ms. Han.

12:46 - This is solely a Brevard policy,

12:48 there’s no Neola reference,

12:49 because this is a reflection of our interlocal agreement

12:52 and defines how we do school concurrency.

12:54 This is based on our interlocal agreement

12:56 and our opinion is it’s fine as is.

12:59 - Yeah, and there’s a couple of administrative procedures

13:01 attached to it that we might need to update,

13:02 so I wanted to say thank you.

13:04 Is there anybody here that wishes to speak to 7130?

13:07 No, okay.

13:09 Next up is gonna be 7217, weapons.

13:14 Dr. Rendell.

13:15 - Yeah, so we would like you to refer that to staff,

13:18 both 7217 and the subsequent sections.

13:23 We have the chief of schools and student services

13:25 reviewing this right now.

13:26 - Okay, and you said subsequent sections,

13:28 would that be the next one, which is 7230,

13:30 or is that subsequent sections just being 7217?

13:34 - Oh, the 7217.

13:35 - Okay, is there anybody that wishes to speak

13:37 to the weapons 7217?

13:39 - Yeah, that one had not only July updates,

13:41 but also a September update that Ron had just sent us,

13:45 so we’ll make sure we incorporate all that in there.

13:47 - Yep, we’re good.

13:49 All right, next one up is 7230, gifts, grants and requests.

13:54 Dr. Rendell.

13:55 - So human resources is looking at that,

13:57 so we’d like to refer it to staff

13:59 and we’ll give you something back.

14:00 - Okay, does anybody wish to speak to 7230?

14:05 - I like ours.

14:06 - Okay.

14:07 - Oh, I did have on this, I think it’s this one.

14:11 There is a section that, I think it’s on,

14:16 I just don’t have it close enough, here we go.

14:18 Thank you.

14:19 There’s a section that says,

14:20 it talks about the grant procedures,

14:22 and I was trying to find that.

14:24 It’s actually in Administrative Procedure 6111,

14:29 so if we can maybe, if we’re going back into it,

14:32 if we can hot link that.

14:33 And then we also have 9230, which is the same thing.

14:40 So when we do ‘em, maybe we have one or the other,

14:45 or make them match at least, so that we’re not,

14:49 ‘cause from what I can tell, they’re just about the same.

14:52 - Yeah, and Miss Lazinski corrected me, she’s got this one.

14:55 - Okay.

14:56 - And so.

14:57 - Go ahead, Miss Lazinski.

15:01 - Miss Campbell, I agree with you.

15:03 There are like three different policies

15:05 that kind of reach out to the different areas,

15:08 and what we wanna do is to be able to take a look at ‘em,

15:13 and make sure that it makes sense in the policies in there.

15:16 The biggest thing is to make sure PTOs, and boosters,

15:20 and those understand what the rules are,

15:22 and people are taking the correct responsibility.

15:25 - I appreciate that, that’s awesome.

15:27 - Yeah, and just so everybody knows,

15:28 Dr. Rendell and I had met, and there’s a series of those

15:31 that you’re gonna run into,

15:32 where they are in multiple spots, right?

15:34 So what staff’s doing is they’ve identified

15:36 each one of ‘em, they’re in the process of saying,

15:39 hey, they’re in three different spots,

15:40 let’s pull ‘em together, where’s the appropriate place,

15:42 and everything else, so you may see more of that

15:45 as we get moving.

15:47 Okay, 7240, Dr. Rendell.

15:51 - Yes, we’re gonna go back to Miss Hand for a little while.

15:54 (laughing)

15:55 - 7240, I looked at that, and in my opinion,

15:58 that’s fine as is.

16:00 - Is there anybody here that wishes to add anything

16:03 to 7240 site acquisition?

16:07 - There was a place, I just had a question.

16:11 Sorry, I’m behind on my clicking.

16:13 There is a part that Paul that says,

16:16 talks about an executive session,

16:18 discussion of possible school sites

16:19 may be carried on an executive session, is that?

16:23 Is it because it’s a legal meeting?

16:27 - The rationale would be because if it gets out publicly,

16:31 that the board may be looking at some sites

16:33 that could jeopardize, I guess, a fair negotiation process,

16:40 ‘cause now there’s gonna be increased demand.

16:41 I would have to double check to make sure

16:43 that that exemption still is there.

16:46 - Right, I mean, NEOLA still has it in there,

16:47 but it was just kind of one of those things that triggered,

16:50 I was like, wait a minute, that’s not one of those things

16:51 you do your training of what you can’t–

16:52 - They haven’t updated there since 2002,

16:55 so I’m assuming it’s still there,

16:56 but those are set to sunset every five years,

16:59 so I would wanna double check and make sure it didn’t sunset.

17:02 So that was my question, other than that, it’s fine.

17:06 - Okay, anybody else in reference to the policy?

17:12 Okay, next up is going to be 7250,

17:17 commemoration of school facilities.

17:21 - Yes, sir, that had a substantial upgrade in June of 2022,

17:24 and we’re pretty satisfied with the way that’s working.

17:27 May address the reference to leading and learning,

17:32 but other than that, the procedural aspects

17:34 of the policy are fine.

17:36 - There was some reference recently, okay, I’m sorry,

17:38 did you have anything else?

17:40 Did anybody else have anything to say on this topic?

17:43 - No, ours is more detailed, so I prefer ours.

17:46 - There was some concern wrapped around a couple

17:48 of the policies in saying that once you named a facility,

17:52 you were not allowed to name another facility

17:54 for five years inside of your school.

17:56 Is that anywhere that you see?

17:58 Because that came to me from one of our principals

18:01 that was trying to rename something.

18:03 Are you seeing that, did you see that anywhere?

18:05 Like if I named my library, I can’t name another facility

18:07 for five years inside of my school.

18:08 - Let me take a look at that, that wasn’t the intent.

18:11 - Yeah, I think that’s exactly what I think.

18:13 I think what they were trying to say is you can’t rename

18:15 the actual facility, and I think that that is the intent

18:18 of the policy, I just wanted to make sure

18:20 that we get some sort of clarification over that,

18:22 because we have a couple of schools that are trying

18:24 to name a couple of things, and we just wanna make sure

18:26 that that’s okay, anybody else on that?

18:29 - Yeah, that says schools that complete the renaming process

18:32 under this section may not be considered for renaming

18:35 for at least five calendar years, following board action.

18:38 So I think that’s just saying you can’t rename a school

18:43 within five years.

18:48 - Well, I just think that we need a little bit

18:50 of clarification on that one, and that would be good.

18:52 Next up, does anybody else wish to have anything on 7250?

18:56 Next up is 7300, property custodianship.

18:59 Ms. Han.

19:01 - I believe that may be Ms. Lisenski.

19:02 - Yeah, Ms. Lisenski’s taking that one.

19:04 - Okay.

19:07 - There you go.

19:09 - Okay, for this one, it is not an IOLA policy.

19:13 However, we do wanna make sure that we are making sure

19:17 that principals and directors are managing

19:22 and taking care of their assets and equipment,

19:26 and knowing where they are, those kind of things.

19:29 And then there’s a C and D,

19:30 which really don’t fit in here.

19:35 It talks about making sure that the lights,

19:38 and the water, and the power, and everything is there.

19:40 So I think I would like to look at moving the A and B

19:47 into another policy to make it all one,

19:52 and then work with facilities on C and D.

19:56 - This is NEOLA’s template.

19:58 - I’m sorry?

19:59 - This is a NEOLA template.

20:00 - They’re exact, they’re identical.

20:01 - Yeah, they’re the same.

20:02 We just filled in the gaps and designated–

20:04 - Oh, I’m sorry, I thought there was no, okay.

20:06 - Yep.

20:07 - So the NEOLA, I don’t know why they put those–

20:10 - Yeah, you can make changes, it’s fine.

20:12 But yeah, it is, just to clarify, it is a NEOLA template.

20:15 - Okay, thank you.

20:17 - Okay, so we’re gonna work on that one and bring it back.

20:19 - Yeah, that’s what I was gonna say, checking it out.

20:21 All right, next up is 7305, easements.

20:24 That’s mine, and I would like to recommend

20:26 that you refer that to staff.

20:28 The policy is really okay as it is,

20:30 but every once in a while we have a request for an easement

20:33 where we should be compensated for the value

20:35 of that easement, and so I’d like to potentially incorporate

20:37 some language around getting an appraisal

20:39 and getting appraised value for the value of the easement.

20:43 - Could we be putting in there also,

20:45 as far as the advertising and stuff like that that we have,

20:48 any kind of definitions for,

20:50 we run into the Department of Transportation

20:52 and some of those others.

20:53 Is this an area that we could enter into that,

20:55 or do you think that this is just specifically

20:57 for the transaction? - This is just specifically

20:58 for easements. - Okay, all right.

21:01 Okay, anybody else have anything to say on easements, 7305?

21:06 All right, next up is 7310, disposition of surplus property.

21:10 I’m assuming this goes back to Ms. Lesinski.

21:12 - Yes, that’s correct.

21:15 - This one we are very happy with,

21:17 and there’s just gonna be a couple minor changes.

21:20 - Yeah, administrative procedure updated in 2010.

21:23 I’m sure that that’s where it’s gonna go.

21:24 Does anybody else wish to speak to this policy?

21:28 - Are we at 7310? - Mm-hmm.

21:30 - We don’t have D.

21:32 We don’t have the rest of the disposition part.

21:38 Is that what you’re just saying?

21:39 Ours ends with one paragraph of disposition,

21:42 and then the NEOLA template has a lot more,

21:46 so we can incorporate those sections.

21:49 I think those are a little more specific

21:50 with how we get rid of stuff, for lack of a.

21:57 - Yeah, and I think we have a pretty strong, robust process.

22:01 I would find that if it’s not anywhere in our policies,

22:03 but did you understand what Ms. Lesinski,

22:05 what she was trying to say?

22:06 She’s just trying to say that there’s a NEOLA portion of it.

22:09 It may be in another place to deal with the disposition.

22:12 - Right, and that falls under procurement,

22:17 but we can make sure that this is all in one,

22:19 so it makes sense.

22:20 - Yeah, just like we were talking.

22:22 - Okay.

22:23 - Okay? - Mm-hmm.

22:25 - Okay, and thank you, Ms. Wright, for pointing that out.

22:28 The next one is 7320, acquisition, removal, disposition,

22:31 sale, or exchange of major tangible personal property.

22:35 Ms. Lesinski?

22:37 - So that’s actually under the chief operating officer,

22:40 chief of operations, so he’s gonna review that

22:42 and bring it back.

22:43 - Okay, anybody else wish to have anything to say

22:45 about this one policy?

22:48 - Yeah, I would like to chime in on this one.

22:49 Rashad, you know where I’m going with this one.

22:51 (laughs)

22:52 I think we received emails,

22:53 and so just making sure we tighten that thing up

22:55 so that we no longer are disposing

22:57 of something that could be used or donated.

23:00 That’s been something that the community

23:01 has been very vocal about taking pictures of,

23:03 so anything we can do to just tighten that up would be good.

23:07 Thank you, appreciate you.

23:07 - That was in 7310, though,

23:09 or that was the one that I was talking about,

23:12 that we have one paragraph on disposition,

23:15 and the NEOLA template has quite a bit more.

23:19 And that we would want to include.

23:21 This one, what I had written down was that

23:23 we don’t have that section on school memorials and gifts

23:27 that we probably need to add in there,

23:29 which would kind of be in a couple of your (laughs)

23:34 rhymes. - Yeah, it was kind of

23:35 in an earlier policy, too.

23:36 - The memorials, the gifts? - Yeah.

23:38 - Yeah, I think, blend. (laughs)

23:42 But as long as we have it in there somewhere,

23:43 ‘cause that one– - We’ll try to make sure

23:44 everything matches.

23:45 - Yeah, that one had a 2020 update,

23:47 so I don’t know if that was the newer language

23:48 that needed to happen. - Probably.

23:51 - So we’re good with taking a look at it,

23:52 bringing it back, and any cross-references,

23:55 cleaning up, right?

23:57 Okay, next up is Policy 7410, Dr. Rendell.

24:02 - Yeah, I think that’s you. - That one’s back to me.

24:04 So I’d actually like to suggest some fairly

24:08 significant changes to this policy that are over and above

24:11 what’s in NEOLA or what’s in our current policy,

24:14 and those relate to institutionalizing our best practices

24:19 of doing periodic facility assessments,

24:22 doing facility asset management programs,

24:25 and then incorporating something about standards

24:28 for building and grounds maintenance.

24:29 I mean, that’s been a big issue for us here in Brevard

24:31 over the last several years, and I think we’re moving

24:34 towards trying to fully resolve that issue.

24:37 It certainly has budget implications,

24:38 but I feel like from a policy perspective,

24:41 if we incorporate those things, then it is setting a message

24:45 in terms of how we develop our budgets,

24:47 that those things are important, so I’m gonna suggest

24:49 that we incorporate at least those three things

24:51 into this policy.

24:53 - And I wanted to say, in this policy,

24:56 Ms. Han took over and started a process

24:58 where she was putting QR codes on many of our,

25:02 many of our maintenance things, like HVAC systems

25:06 and stuff like that, and prior to that,

25:08 we would just find out this thing broke,

25:10 and then they would have to go out and try to figure out

25:12 what it was, what year it was, what a replacement,

25:16 and now we’ve done a good job, or you have done a good job,

25:19 I’m saying, of QR coding most of them to where we know

25:22 that there’s a cycle of we need to buy this many

25:25 at this time to make sure we cover it

25:26 and you’re getting there.

25:27 I just wanted to say thank you for that.

25:28 That was a huge undertaking, and I don’t know

25:30 if the new board members know about it.

25:32 - Well, thanks.

25:33 This is really a best practice in facility management,

25:36 and we’re doing pretty well in comparison to other districts.

25:39 I’m really proud of the program that our folks

25:40 have developed, so I’d like to give it a little bit

25:46 more weight in policy other than where it is now.

25:49 It’s just something that we’re doing.

25:52 - Well, I really appreciate that.

25:53 Anybody else have anything to say to 7410 Maintenance?

25:56 All right, next up is 7420 Sanitation and Housekeeping.

26:00 Dr. Rendell, is this what you’re saying?

26:01 - That’s me. - It’s again Sue, yep.

26:02 - That’s me, and I recommend just leaving that as is.

26:05 - Okay, does anybody else wish to add anything to it?

26:09 - 2020? - Yeah, Neola has an update.

26:13 We didn’t update it since 2020, 2002.

26:17 - We’ve updated ours since then.

26:19 - If you feel, ours just says Neola 2002.

26:23 We revised it on the 14, but Ms. San,

26:25 if you feel confident that this is something

26:27 that we should keep, then this is your area.

26:29 I’m okay with that.

26:31 All right, anybody else?

26:34 Nope, all right, moving forward, 7421 Restrooms

26:37 and changing facilities. - So we do not have

26:40 a policy currently, so we’re looking

26:42 for board direction on this one.

26:51 - So this is an update that came to us

26:52 from Neola that we said we needed it.

26:56 I’m sorry, go ahead, Ms. Campbell.

26:57 - Well, I was going to ask, is this,

27:02 I mean, we’re complying with state law.

27:05 I was gonna ask Paul, do we need this

27:08 to clarify for clarity for our staff,

27:12 and do we need, well, first, do we need

27:14 to have the policy for compliance?

27:16 I couldn’t find anywhere where it said,

27:17 it just said if I spend such time,

27:19 you have to report how you’re handling things,

27:22 but I didn’t know if we needed the policy for compliance,

27:24 so that was one question, but then secondly,

27:27 really to Dr. Rendell, do we need this for clarity

27:29 so that all our district staff can understand

27:33 this is how we’re handling things?

27:35 - Yeah, typically policy helps you answer

27:37 all those questions, so typically you would want

27:39 something in policy, clear definitions,

27:41 black and white, that kind of thing.

27:42 - Yeah, yeah, I’m in favor of us including this

27:44 for clarity for public and for staff.

27:48 - Anybody else?

27:49 - I support including it as well.

27:51 - Okay, I do, too.

27:52 Dr. Rendell, if you can look back at it,

27:53 there’s a couple of options on there,

27:55 I think maybe bring back a formalized policy.

27:56 - Yeah, we’ll take a look at the,

27:59 I think there’s three different options to choose from

28:00 and different language in there,

28:02 and we’ll bring you back something.

28:03 - Okay, all right, with that,

28:05 next up is 7430, risk reduction program, Dr. Rendell.

28:10 - That is with finance, with Cindy.

28:12 - Ms. Olsinski. - Ms. Olsinski.

28:22 - We definitely wanna keep this one

28:24 and actually work with facilities and robust that

28:28 because we wanna make sure that we’re reducing risk

28:31 as much as possible.

28:32 - Sure.

28:34 Okay, so send it to you, you guys will bring it back to us.

28:36 Dr. Rendell, just out of curiosity,

28:39 the turnaround on some of these policies,

28:42 is there a, just for the board to know,

28:44 are we looking at 30 days of having staff look at ‘em?

28:47 What are you thinking?

28:48 - Well, really, we’re looking at the cycle that you’re in.

28:50 As you get through each series of policies,

28:52 we try to fall right in line when you get,

28:57 when you’re done with the sevens,

28:58 you get to the eights and so on, we bring ‘em back.

29:01 Some of these, we can fast track if we need to.

29:05 - So if we are coming up with the eights,

29:07 maybe the idea is that the 1000s are on the deck

29:10 and coming for renewal, you know what I mean?

29:12 - Correct, if you think about next week’s workshop,

29:15 we’ve got some 1000 policies that have been revised

29:18 coming back for public hearing and stuff like that, so.

29:20 - Yeah, the first public hearing’s next board workshop

29:24 for all of the ones.

29:27 - I think for the most part, the idea would be

29:30 that, you know what I mean, we have some sort of a plan

29:33 moving forward of the 1000s are here,

29:35 the 2000s and everything else, so I appreciate that.

29:38 - We can send you kind of a calendar,

29:40 like when we believe these policies will be ready

29:42 to bring back to you.

29:43 - With the understanding that some of ‘em

29:44 take a little bit longer than others

29:46 and some of ‘em may need to reach out

29:47 for further clarification and stuff,

29:49 but for the most part, just a generalized one would be good.

29:54 Okay, next up is 7430.01, Environmental Health Program.

30:00 We don’t have a policy, NEOLA has one.

30:03 What do you think, Dr. Wendell?

30:06 - I think Sue was ready to jump in on that.

30:07 - Yeah, I’ll grab this one.

30:08 I’d like to take a look at that.

30:10 I’ll take the lead from a department point of view,

30:12 but we’ve got several other departments

30:14 that might have been put into this potential policy,

30:16 so we’ll come back to you with a recommendation on it.

30:20 - Okay, so the, I’m sorry, go ahead.

30:23 - We have this at 8400 a lot,

30:25 I mean, that I could tell it was very similar, at least,

30:27 and that we did update in 2020, so we can take a look

30:30 and see if that’s, we haven’t got to 8,000s yet,

30:32 so I don’t know what the templates look like,

30:33 but if we can see if that’s our,

30:36 if we already have all that content there,

30:38 then maybe we don’t need the new policy.

30:44 - We’re good with that, Ms. Ham?

30:45 - Yes, sir. - Okay.

30:47 Moving on, 7434, Smoking and Tobacco-Free Environments.

30:51 Again, there’s a NEOLA policy that we have.

30:55 We do not currently have one,

30:56 but I do know we have some rules around smoking

31:00 and stuff like that, and Ms. Ham,

31:01 do you wish to, is this your area?

31:04 - It is not, I don’t believe it.

31:06 - Okay, Dr. Rendell, I apologize.

31:08 - Yeah, no, this is, both falls under operations,

31:11 it also falls under chief of schools,

31:13 it also falls under risk management.

31:15 So we’re reviewing this, and we’ll bring it back.

31:17 - Okay.

31:18 - So before we get off this one, we have this at 3215,

31:21 and then we had this conversation in the 5,000s about,

31:24 ‘cause in the student section,

31:25 I remember Ms. Rygman said, let’s have it both places

31:28 so it’s very clear, people look at, so.

31:29 - Right. - But I don’t think

31:30 we need it in three places, so.

31:33 So we have it in the 3215, which I think is a staff section,

31:37 and we’ve got it, and we’ve talked about adding it

31:40 in the 5,000s under the student section.

31:42 - Student section, correct.

31:43 - And we most recently updated it in 2021,

31:45 so I think we might be good with–

31:49 - And the idea is to always make it mirror.

31:51 If it’s in 3,000s and 5,000s,

31:53 the language should all be set.

31:54 - Right, and honestly, I mean,

31:56 I guess it is a facilities-type thing,

31:58 but really, it’s more of a behavior-type thing,

32:00 so I think that where those other two sections

32:03 is a more appropriate place.

32:06 - Yep, and again, I think these are the ones

32:09 we’re gonna come across many of these

32:10 where staff can give us the recommendations.

32:12 Thank you for bringing that up, Ms. Campbell.

32:14 Next up is 7440, buildings and ground security.

32:17 I’m assuming, but I’m gonna ask Dr. Endell,

32:20 who has this one?

32:20 - It’s all operations and that whole section of the 7440s,

32:25 we’re reviewing all of that.

32:27 I don’t know if Mr. Wilson has anything to add right now,

32:30 but yeah.

32:32 - Would you like me just to say 7440, 7440.01, 7440.0203,

32:39 all are gonna be reviewed by Mr. Wilson and come back,

32:44 or do you guys wanna–

32:44 - One of them, I think Russ said he wants

32:46 to have a conversation, right,

32:47 over the video surveillance and electronic monitoring.

32:50 - Yeah, it’s just a cross-functional one,

32:51 so it’s Rashad, myself, and Ms. Campbell.

32:55 - Yeah, okay, well then we’ll just say,

32:56 so 7440, Rashad’s gonna work on it

32:59 and bring back a recommendation if need be.

33:01 Is that right, Dr. Endell?

33:02 - Correct.

33:03 - And then 7440.01, video surveillance

33:05 and electronic monitoring.

33:07 Did you have something to say, Mr. Cheatham?

33:12 - Well, he wrote that on the spreadsheet.

33:13 He said discussion was needed, so that’s why.

33:14 - Hang on just a second.

33:15 I don’t wanna get off of 7440 yet.

33:17 - Okay.

33:19 - Don’t rush, ‘cause we might have to comment along the way.

33:23 - I didn’t have anybody speak up.

33:24 - I didn’t get a chance.

33:25 He didn’t pause long enough.

33:28 I see the note, must remove resident mobile homes.

33:30 I saw that in there, like, what on earth?

33:33 So is that some, I know that we used to do it

33:35 because there was a mobile home on the campus

33:37 of Central Middle School that just recently

33:39 got removed literally in the last year,

33:40 and I, somebody was living in there,

33:41 and I always, it was just some kind of random,

33:44 so how did that come about?

33:46 Why, are we still, is that the only place

33:47 where it was done, or do we still have people

33:51 living on our campus?

33:52 - There’s approximately 16 in the district.

33:55 - And are there people who live there,

33:56 just people who apply to live there?

33:58 - No, they were long, I guess long before

34:00 any of us got here, they were security for the site.

34:04 So they agreed to monitor the site,

34:07 and they would check the doors and the property

34:10 to make sure nothing was going on at night

34:12 when it was closed, and this is all before

34:15 the new security requirements and fencing

34:17 and cameras and all of that, so they’ve just

34:20 never been terminated, so they’ve just continued

34:24 to function in that capacity.

34:26 - Are we paying them, or are we just providing–

34:27 - No, they get free rent, they basically get

34:29 a lot to put their trailer, and they monitor

34:32 the property in exchange for the free lot.

34:36 - It is inventive, and I’m, but I mean,

34:43 we still have people?

34:45 - So we do have about 16 of those mobile homes

34:49 on our campuses, on 16 campuses.

34:52 We did make the decision earlier to let them know

34:54 that we’re gonna terminate this policy

34:57 at the end of June, so this will be the last year

35:00 any of them– - Of June of 2024.

35:02 - June of ‘24. - Okay, so they’ve got

35:04 some time to relocate. - Right.

35:05 So we are going to stop this practice.

35:07 This is something that was done years ago,

35:10 as Mr. Gibbs mentioned, to provide an extra layer

35:13 of security for our campuses, usually at night

35:16 and on the weekends, you know, when we’re not occupied,

35:18 so these individuals were allowed to live there,

35:21 basically rent-free, in return for providing

35:24 a security service. - Right.

35:26 - In a lot of the cases, that security service

35:28 is actually not provided, and so we’re not seeing

35:31 the return on investment, so to speak,

35:33 even though we don’t really have an investment,

35:35 but really, with the new security procedures,

35:38 we don’t want anybody living on our campuses.

35:40 - Right, right. - So this is something

35:43 that was supposed to be phased out years ago,

35:46 and it never had gotten phased out,

35:48 so now we’re phasing it out.

35:50 - Well, that solved a mystery for me.

35:52 I don’t know why I didn’t ask that question before,

35:55 but thank you, I appreciate that.

35:58 - So I did want to tell you guys,

36:01 when I was a teacher at Space Coast,

36:02 they used to do reverse sound, so what would happen

36:05 is the sound from Space Coast High School

36:08 would go back into the house of the person

36:10 that was staying there in between there and Enterprise,

36:12 so if there was a loud noise at night, it would pop,

36:15 and they would know to check, call security,

36:17 stuff like that, so those were some of the things

36:19 that people had put in place with these individuals

36:21 to make sure that they were safe,

36:23 and it did actually end up catching a couple of kids

36:25 trying to play pranks and a couple other people

36:27 trying to break in, so it was actually pretty good.

36:29 The one that I did want to tell you guys about

36:30 that was pretty funny was we had one that was staying

36:33 at a location and then put it up for sale

36:35 and tried to sell it, and that was a whole ordeal

36:38 that we had to deal with, it was in my district,

36:39 and it was pretty funny because,

36:41 and it wasn’t even the person

36:42 that we had originally signed it with,

36:44 it was somebody else who had been living there

36:46 after that person had deceased, and it was (laughs)

36:50 and there was a whole battle,

36:51 and it was an interesting thing,

36:53 so I think we’re at a different place now

36:56 for our security and stuff like that,

36:59 so we’re in a different place altogether,

37:00 so thank you for doing that,

37:01 but I did want to put some context to some of it.

37:03 There are some good things and there are some bad things,

37:06 and then there’s one that was growing chickens

37:07 on the thing, and that was an interesting thing, too.

37:09 - Science.

37:10 - Yeah.

37:11 - No, it wasn’t science, it was not.

37:12 - It actually seems like it would be counterintuitive now

37:15 because if you open it to a driveway

37:17 ‘cause someone lives there,

37:17 then you’re opening the fence, external fencing,

37:19 to let other people, so I think this is a good time

37:22 with all the new rules, absolutely.

37:23 I’m supportive of that.

37:24 - I have a quick question just to chime into this.

37:26 Sue, I’m sure you know this, but as far as the residents

37:28 that are living on these 16 different properties,

37:30 is there any way you can give the board some feedback

37:32 on how long these people have been there?

37:33 I mean, is this gonna be someone that’s been on campus?

37:37 I mean, I just think about a family that’s been there

37:39 for 30 years or something, and they’re like,

37:40 “Oh, now you have to move and we’re kicking you out.”

37:42 And so, just so you can give that to us

37:45 so that we know that and prepare for that coming up,

37:47 that would be good.

37:48 - I have those contracts currently

37:50 ‘cause I drafted the notices, so I can email you all

37:54 like how long everybody’s been on

37:56 and what the properties are that they’re located.

37:58 - Okay, thank you.

37:59 - In most cases, I don’t think that the schools

38:01 actually had communications with many of them before,

38:04 so I think that this is something,

38:05 all the ones I’ve ever had,

38:07 they were not communicating back and forth.

38:08 They were just there, and it was kind of an odd thing,

38:11 so I just wanna kind of add that context.

38:14 There are maybe some that they have relationships,

38:16 but I don’t know.

38:17 - The ones I know about, they typically are not families.

38:19 They’re generally single individuals.

38:21 - Okay, all right, I would just like to know that.

38:23 - Sure, all right.

38:26 - So that was just 740, 7440, and 7440-01.

38:32 I believe Russ does wanna make a comment.

38:34 - But I did wanna finish up on that one.

38:36 We do have some custodians that actually live in those,

38:40 so there is one that I know of,

38:42 so that we may wanna take a look at

38:44 because that may be an added incentive

38:46 for somebody that’s working there to be there.

38:48 - The issue with having a security trailer on site

38:51 is that they’re not separate from the campus,

38:54 and so this is someone’s home,

38:57 and they can invite literally anyone at any time

38:59 onto the campus and not go through our security protocols,

39:03 so that’s the reason why we think

39:05 this is no longer an appropriate security function,

39:09 and in a few cases, we’re looking at doing some fencing

39:12 around the security trailer

39:13 to make sure that they are separate from campus

39:17 in those cases where we’re concerned about them

39:19 being like a safety hazard

39:20 where they’re close to the road or something like that.

39:22 - Yeah, okay, all right, thank you.

39:25 Next one up, Dr. Rendell,

39:27 Video Surveillance and Electronic Monitoring.

39:28 You had something to say?

39:30 - Mr. Cheatham, did you wanna jump?

39:32 - Yeah, I just wanted to comment.

39:33 It’s cross-functional between ET operations and facilities,

39:37 so we’ll be reviewing it and bringing that back to the board.

39:40 - Okay, anybody else wish to have anything

39:41 to say on that one?

39:43 - The difference that I noticed

39:45 was the parental consent part, so we need to have that.

39:50 I mean, basically anything that we would be recording for

39:54 is going to fall under that educational purposes

39:57 and things like that, but I’m gonna just guess

39:59 if that was that 2021 update

40:01 ‘cause that falls under the year that we were doing

40:05 the Parental Rights Bill.

40:10 So that’s the section that I noticed that we do not have.

40:17 - You good? - Yeah.

40:19 - Okay.

40:21 Good, Mr. Cheatham?

40:23 All right, moving forward, 7440.01, damage or loss.

40:27 Dr. Rendell.

40:29 - Just so again, this is something

40:30 I believe staff’s gonna review and bring back.

40:32 This is Ms. Lasinski, any comments or?

40:36 - No, that’s something that we need to.

40:39 - Review and bring back. - Exactly.

40:41 - Okay.

40:42 - Okay, anybody have any questions on 7440.02?

40:48 - Yeah, theirs has a lot more legal ramifications

40:54 as far as what we can do if someone does damage.

40:57 I don’t know if you noticed that, Paul,

40:58 but there was in the NEOLA template,

41:00 even though they were from the same year,

41:01 it had more and we could potentially go out

41:05 to get damages and things like that.

41:08 So I’d like your advisement on that one too.

41:11 - It’s really, I know some boards are hesitant

41:14 to take legal action against students.

41:17 So that’s probably why the board in 2002,

41:20 they said, “No, we’re not gonna be suing

41:21 “our families for it.”

41:23 So they chose not to implement certain provisions,

41:26 but I don’t know how we’d find that other than trying

41:29 to dig up minutes if they still exist.

41:31 - Well, and it’s not that I’m looking to go,

41:33 but I can foresee a situation that might be bigger than–

41:37 - We can include it and use a language

41:39 that’s permissive like May.

41:41 So then it’s up to the board at the time

41:43 to decide whether or not it wants to take those legal steps.

41:47 - I think that’s probably a wise decision.

41:48 I mean, we had an incident with one of my schools last year

41:50 where a fire was started in the bathroom

41:52 intentionally by a student.

41:52 - Right, with the TikTok challenges and things.

41:55 Things have changed significantly since 2002.

41:57 - Exactly, I mean, they were dismantling our bathrooms

41:59 and doing all kinds of stuff, so it’s probably good

42:02 to have the ability to exercise that

42:04 should it be something that’s just so out there.

42:06 - Or at least just have it in policy

42:08 so people are aware that that’s a potential–

42:09 - It’s a potential, right.

42:13 - Good, anybody else?

42:15 All right, staff’s gonna bring back a recommendation.

42:18 And again, if anybody has anything in the process

42:20 to follow up with, please do so.

42:22 7440.02, damage or loss.

42:28 - 03.

42:29 - Yeah, we just did that.

42:29 - I’m sorry, 7440.03, small unmanned aircraft systems.

42:33 - We just wanted this on air.

42:35 - We just revised that one, so we just prefer to keep it.

42:39 - Yeah, it’s just straight to the law of the DOE

42:41 for not using those. - Yep, 7440.03.

42:43 - All right, all right, anybody else

42:44 got anything to say on that one?

42:46 Nope, all right, 7450, property inventory.

42:50 Dr. Rendell.

42:52 - Yeah, that was with, I believe with you as well, yep.

42:56 - Right, and this is another one

42:58 that we want to have our staff take a look at

43:01 and review and make sure that we include grant managers

43:05 and responsibility for the different areas.

43:08 - Okay, anybody have any comments on this one?

43:11 Nope, moving forward, 7455,

43:13 accounting system for fixed assets, Dr. Rendell.

43:17 - I think that’s the same with Ms. Lozinski.

43:18 We wanna review that, correct,

43:20 to some changes we’ve already identified.

43:23 - We wanna keep that update.

43:24 - Okay.

43:25 - Is there a difference between,

43:27 is there a purposeful difference

43:29 between using fixed and capital?

43:31 I was checking the statutes and they don’t really,

43:33 and the rule, they don’t really use one or the other.

43:36 Was that just a rebar decision or does it legally matter?

43:40 You don’t think so?

43:42 - Part of the changes was crossing out capital

43:44 and putting fixed, so.

43:45 - Okay, okay, and then there was,

43:50 there is an administrative procedure

43:55 and I gotta read my notes.

43:59 I said administrative procedure 7310.

44:01 Why do I have that in there?

44:08 Oh, the disposition.

44:10 If we go, if we update the disposition policy,

44:15 there was something in there that needs to be related to that

44:21 Okay, well, y’all look at that, I can’t remember what.

44:24 I didn’t write down enough notes to remember what it was.

44:27 Oh, the superintendent shall develop

44:29 administrative procedures to ensure proper purchase,

44:31 transfer and disposal of fixed assets.

44:34 That’s what I was saying.

44:35 We already have that administrative procedure at,

44:38 but not with this one, it’s at 7310.

44:40 So it doesn’t have to be with this one,

44:43 but if we’re gonna say something has a procedure,

44:47 in this case, we have it, it’s just not located here.

44:50 So do with that what you want.

44:51 Even if we just link it or something, that’d be good.

44:54 Did you guys understand that?

44:58 - Yes. - Okay.

44:59 So anybody else have anything to say?

45:02 Nope, 7455 is in the good.

45:05 Moving on, 7460 conservation of natural material resources.

45:10 Talked about this policy, having some discussion.

45:13 We’ve had some discussion around this too.

45:15 Ms. Suhan.

45:20 - Self in the NEOLA version, they’re sort of inert,

45:24 but we often have competing interests in this arena.

45:30 So for example, having a very strong recycling goal

45:33 might actually cost us more money.

45:36 Saving money might cause us to do draconian measures

45:40 around air conditioning.

45:42 So there’s often a competing priority in this arena.

45:46 So if the board would like to keep a policy

45:48 around consideration of conservation

45:51 in the context of other goals, I can write something

45:55 that says that, but wanted to just ask

46:00 what you all think about this policy.

46:02 - I had a lot to talk about on this,

46:04 but I’ll give you guys the opportunity to speak ahead of me.

46:07 - So if I’m hearing you correctly,

46:10 so like our practice of cutting off the air conditionings

46:15 for extended periods of time, every time I go out

46:19 with someone who is an air conditioning person,

46:21 they say, this is not good because you wouldn’t do this

46:25 in your home, it’s hard on the machines or whatever.

46:27 Is this policy driving that or is it just cost,

46:30 ‘cause I always thought that was cost savings,

46:31 but then in the end you have to balance the cost savings

46:34 of cutting the ACs off versus damage to your equipment.

46:37 - Right, so we’ve actually made decisions to not do that

46:41 because of the damage to our stuff.

46:45 And so we’ve been lowering our set points

46:48 and we’re running the air conditioning more

46:50 because we want our folks to be comfortable

46:52 in their buildings.

46:53 If we don’t do that, it leads to indoor air quality issues

46:56 and we chase those all around.

46:57 So there’s, like I said, a lot of competing interests.

47:00 I think I could wordsmith something

47:02 that addresses the fact that there are competing interests

47:05 and conservation is a good goal,

47:08 but it’s not the only goal.

47:10 And I think it needs to be in the context

47:12 of some of our other priorities.

47:14 - Right, no, I appreciate that.

47:17 And if your recommendation is to,

47:19 because like you said, it’s a pretty benign policy

47:22 in general, on the surface, right,

47:24 but if it’s causing problems and we’re not,

47:27 with us having to put this as a goal,

47:29 I’m fine with removing it.

47:31 - Anybody else?

47:34 No?

47:34 - No, I was just getting this ready.

47:36 - Okay.

47:38 - All right.

47:39 - I thought he was going for it, he was.

47:40 - Okay, so when I look at this,

47:42 we have solar, natural gas, battery,

47:45 we have all of these things, right?

47:47 And consistently, we have individuals coming and saying,

47:50 hey, we can make natural gas buses

47:52 and they can run and save you money and solar.

47:55 You won’t have to pay for electricity after five years.

47:57 And there are some things that when you look at them,

48:00 you’re like, hey, it’s our due diligence

48:03 to take a look at those.

48:03 And I know that you’re already doing that.

48:06 In like fuel sources and everything else.

48:08 I wonder if there’s an opportunity for us

48:10 to do like a every three year review

48:13 and have a, you know, bring forward,

48:16 hey, here’s what the newest technologies are.

48:18 Here’s where the cost breaks are on them.

48:20 That might be a little bit more of a formal process

48:23 so that we’re not missing some of those components.

48:25 What do you think about that?

48:26 - So, like I said, I think I can wordsmith something

48:28 that addresses that ‘cause we do exactly what you suggested.

48:32 So for example, we’re doing several roof projects.

48:34 We looked at solar.

48:36 It’s not going to save us money at this point in time

48:39 and it has the potential to damage the roof.

48:42 So, you know, there again, competing interests.

48:45 But yes, we certainly do want to look at new technology.

48:48 Same thing in fuel sources.

48:49 I know Mr. Wilson’s been looking at different fuel sources

48:53 and buses, you know, for the bus fleet.

48:55 You know, great best practice.

48:57 But we gotta be able to get natural gas.

48:59 We gotta be able to have electric charging state.

49:01 Like the source of those alternative fuels

49:04 has to be readily available too.

49:07 So I think what you’re suggesting, Mr. Susan,

49:09 might be a way to kind of keep the policy

49:11 but we would generate our own language

49:14 around those different competing interests.

49:16 - Yeah, and I think in just in practice

49:18 is to review any kind of innovative pieces in this.

49:22 Like even the recycling piece,

49:24 there’s some innovation inside of there.

49:27 I was in one county and the county government tied

49:30 with the school district and had this trash recycling program

49:33 that created energy and they were,

49:34 I mean, there’s some cool stuff out there, right?

49:37 But I wonder if there’s an opportunity to do that.

49:39 And then maybe there’s an opportunity

49:40 where we have a work session every three years

49:42 or something like that that says, or every two years,

49:44 this is what it is, this is what we evaluated

49:46 and stuff like that.

49:47 Since you’re doing it already, our public will know,

49:50 you know, these guys that come up and try to sell solar

49:52 and they try to do this, they try to do that.

49:53 Hey, listen, we already did that.

49:54 Here’s the workshop, here’s the individual,

49:56 here’s your opportunity to talk

49:57 to more of a formal process, that’s all.

50:00 - Yeah, and we are looking at different sort of

50:03 like energy conservation techniques

50:05 and are there opportunities to do little pilot projects

50:08 in our schools that tie to the STEM program?

50:11 So like that type of thing,

50:13 I think we have some good opportunities there

50:15 where we can try little things

50:17 and see if they are scalable throughout the district.

50:20 So I think I get what you are saying

50:24 and we’ll try to wordsmith something that will get us there.

50:28 - I think where the strong language,

50:33 the absolute language of mandate

50:38 the district implement strategies,

50:39 which will conserve all forms of energy used

50:41 and or ensure proper recycling.

50:43 We want, I think it would be good to at the same time,

50:46 you know, talk about all the things that we are doing,

50:48 but I’m glad you brought up thinking about the buses

50:49 because there have been some districts that said,

50:51 we’re gonna start implementing

50:52 until we get to all electric buses, for example.

50:54 But if you read the news reports that are coming out

50:57 in recent news, it talks about the cost of batteries

51:00 and all that, so we’re, you know, you’re causing as much

51:03 or more cost as you might be saving

51:05 and maybe even messing up the environment.

51:09 - On top of it too, worse.

51:10 So I’m not interested in being a guinea pig

51:12 and we’ll kind of let everybody work out the kinks

51:15 until future boards and generations can take a look

51:17 and they’ve got it kind of more perfected

51:19 on a better for the environment,

51:21 better for the pocketbooks of our taxpayers.

51:24 But I think those, if we can, if you’ve got words

51:27 that you can put in that would not tie us

51:30 into things that we may not want to do

51:32 or may be bad for the environment or bad for our budget,

51:36 I would appreciate that or removing it all together,

51:39 which was your original suggestion.

51:40 I’m fine with that too.

51:42 - You know, Ms. Han, you put together that process

51:43 for us to go to these large, like the one we have

51:46 on October 12th for the Veterans Memorial,

51:49 you know what I mean, for the veterans,

51:51 maybe there’s a process to do this too

51:52 that you can think of and then we can go there.

51:54 So that’s all, just a thought.

51:56 - Okay.

51:57 - Doesn’t have to be in the policy, but maybe,

51:58 you know what I mean, a review or something

51:59 every so many years or something.

52:01 - Okay. - Okay.

52:02 - I think I can craft something.

52:03 - Perfect, perfect.

52:05 Okay, does anybody else have anything

52:06 on conservation of natural and material resources?

52:09 - Nope. - Moving on, 7510,

52:11 use of district facilities, Dr. Rendell.

52:14 - Yeah, so we were gonna propose

52:16 just leave this policy as is.

52:18 We updated the administrative procedures just last year.

52:21 - Okay. - So we were just gonna leave.

52:22 - Everybody okay with that?

52:24 - Yep, yep, yeah, I appreciate that.

52:27 And Dr. Rendell, I’m sure as you do your municipality tours,

52:32 you’ll be hearing some concerns

52:36 when it comes to some of that district use.

52:37 So if you could just put it on your long list of things

52:41 to ask and touch base with as you do those tours,

52:44 just ‘cause I know that there’s some concerns

52:47 that may not necessarily be accurate,

52:49 but it might be a little bit of miscommunication and stuff.

52:51 - Yeah, we can try and clear some of that up, absolutely.

52:53 Thank you, yep.

52:54 I think I know some of the things you’re talking about.

52:56 (laughing)

52:59 Okay, moving on 7511, media broadcast

53:02 of student athletic competitions.

53:04 I do know that this is being reviewed currently

53:06 by our athletic department.

53:08 If anybody has anything to kind of mention,

53:10 but I think I would wait until he brings that out

53:12 to kind of then wordsmith it, okay?

53:15 If you guys are okay with that?

53:17 All right.

53:18 Moving on to 7530, lending of board owned equipment.

53:24 We have a new policy.

53:25 Dr. Rendell, what’s your deal?

53:27 Actually, Mr. Chiam’s gonna jump in on this one, I think.

53:30 - Yeah, this is another cross-functional.

53:31 You think of laptops,

53:32 but you also think about other equipment

53:34 that we lend out.

53:36 Some equipment we check out, but this is lending.

53:39 And this also, I think, includes risk management

53:41 because when folks use our facilities and things like that,

53:45 we’re just making sure those items don’t go missing

53:48 or leave our campuses.

53:50 - Ms. Zasinski, you have something to say.

53:51 - And there’s processes for accounting

53:53 to make sure that we are keeping track of our things.

53:56 So there’s several, it’s a combined policy

54:02 that we need to work.

54:03 - That’s great.

54:04 - I have a question and this might just be a technical issue

54:07 but when I look at our website for this policy,

54:10 it’s not there, 7530?

54:12 - We do not have that.

54:13 - Okay, all right.

54:15 - So we’re taking a look at the NELA template,

54:16 seeing what we wanna–

54:17 - Sorry, I was–

54:19 - Adopt.

54:19 - It’s an area with a lot of gray areas there,

54:22 so I appreciate you guys’ work on that.

54:24 Anybody else have anything to say?

54:26 - So what you guys are saying is you do recommend,

54:28 I think this is the one you did say.

54:29 - Yes.

54:30 - Oh yeah, we wanna adopt something.

54:32 - Gotcha.

54:33 - And you notice these numbers are starting to cross over,

54:35 so there was a renumbering done by NELA at some point, so.

54:39 - Yep.

54:41 No further comment, we’ll move on to 7530.01,

54:44 staff use of cell phones, pages, pages and two-way radios.

54:48 We have a NELA update since this year.

54:50 What is the direction, Dr. Lindell?

54:53 - Yeah, so our notice recommend not to adopt the NELA policy

54:57 to keep cars.

54:59 - And it doesn’t have any statutory laws that are to it,

55:02 so you guys are okay with that?

55:03 - Wait, I thought you had said to recommend,

55:05 but not version one, version two.

55:09 - Let me check.

55:10 - On the sheet that Russell sent, not to do version one,

55:13 which was the cell phone allowance, but to do version two,

55:16 which is the board-owned wireless communications device.

55:19 - Correct, because we don’t do cell phone allowances,

55:21 so we’re not doing version one and version two

55:25 will be replacing 7530.01 that we’ll get to next.

55:29 - With the July updates?

55:31 - Correct.

55:31 - Okay, I wasn’t sure if what you sent us on the email

55:33 included the July updates or not.

55:34 - So let me explain, so the items that I sent you guys

55:37 in the educational technology NELA templates,

55:40 there are tons of options, so instead of making you guys

55:42 go through every single one of those options,

55:44 what I sent you guys was our proposed,

55:46 our recommended selections for each one of those options,

55:49 so it kind of streamlined the review of those,

55:52 so as you look at those, it’s just the options

55:54 that BPS would recommend.

55:56 Once you approve those, then we’ll add the BPS language

55:59 that’s specific for our district afterwards.

56:01 - But that was my question.

56:01 When you sent that, and it was very helpful, thank you,

56:04 did that include those July updates?

56:07 - It’s the latest version that I have.

56:08 - The very latest, okay, okay.

56:09 It probably won’t include the September ones

56:11 ‘cause those just came out.

56:12 There were a couple of years that had the September.

56:12 - And these change all the time, so it’s technology.

56:15 They’re always changing.

56:16 - Right, right, so when you bring it back to us,

56:18 it’ll have the most basic. - Correct.

56:19 - Thank you for doing that, by the way.

56:21 - So anybody, oh, and anybody other comments on this?

56:25 Okay, moving forward, 7540,

56:26 computer technology and networks.

56:29 - Again, that’s Mr. Cheatham.

56:31 - So we’ll be replacing this with the NEOLA 7540 template,

56:35 and I provided the recommended changes to you guys.

56:38 - Beautiful, and thank you for those notes.

56:39 That’s exactly what you said.

56:40 Anybody have any comments on 7540?

56:42 - I think we skipped 7530.02.

56:46 - That’s what we were just on.

56:47 - I thought we were on 7530.01 version two.

56:51 - Well, we have–

56:52 - So we went to 40, and we’ll get to 4001.02.03.

56:55 - Right, right, right, okay. - Just given direction.

56:57 - Right, right, well, somewhere in there, I missed.

56:59 - 7540, you’re good on that direction.

57:02 We’re gonna bring that back, move it to 75.

57:05 I’m not sure where your,

57:08 I mean, he had given recommendation

57:09 that 7540.01, 7540.02. - We’re not there yet.

57:14 I know we haven’t gotten there yet.

57:15 - 7540.01, 7530. - Right, 7530, if you–

57:18 - Yeah, yeah.

57:19 - So we have 7530.01, which we went,

57:21 and he said that he was gonna work on tying that

57:24 into 7530, right?

57:26 He had mentioned that he’s gonna bring back

57:27 new template 7530.01, he went through that.

57:29 - Yeah, so 7530.01 will be replaced

57:31 by the new template 7530.01 version two.

57:35 - Right, and you don’t have a 7530.02.

57:39 - Right. - Naturally.

57:40 - Well, I didn’t hear the recommendation for that,

57:42 so you’re recommending that we add 7530.02.

57:49 - Correct. - Correct.

57:49 - Which it’s gonna replace, gotcha.

57:51 Okay, now, sorry, I just, nobody,

57:53 I didn’t hear .02. - No, no, no, I appreciate it.

57:54 - Anytime. - No, you’re right.

57:55 - Anytime you need clarification, just let me know, 70.

57:57 - 7540, Computer Technology and Networks, Dr. Endo.

58:01 - Again, that’s Russell.

58:03 - We’ll be replacing that with the NELO template,

58:05 and I sent you guys the recommended changes.

58:07 - Yep, you got that inside of here.

58:08 - It got rid of Myspace.

58:10 (all laughing)

58:12 - Needed a little update.

58:13 - I don’t know why it might come back.

58:14 (all laughing)

58:16 - Right, oh, yeah, do we have pagers?

58:18 - Still says pagers, yes.

58:19 - Do pagers still exist in that one?

58:20 - My note on this one is that on 7540,

58:23 there are a lot of administrative procedures,

58:26 and I would request that we check them

58:28 for accuracy and relevance,

58:29 because a lot of them are quite old

58:31 in the world of technology.

58:32 - So what we hope to do is approve the NELO policies,

58:35 and then we’ll go back through the administrative procedures

58:37 and make sure they match the changes.

58:38 - Right, match ‘em up.

58:39 - Okay, and I’m fine with deleting Myspace.

58:42 (all laughing)

58:43 - I don’t know, just for nostalgia.

58:45 I mean, you never know it might be used.

58:46 Now it’s not gonna be covered.

58:48 That’s when we’ll jump on it.

58:50 All right, 7540.01, Technology Privacy.

58:54 Mr. Chien?

58:55 - Yep.

58:56 - We are replacing that with the NELO template.

58:58 - 7540.01, anybody have any comments on that?

59:01 Nope, all right.

59:02 Moving on to 7540.02, District Webpage.

59:06 Mr. Chien?

59:07 - We are replacing that.

59:08 It has a new name, Web Content Apps and Services.

59:11 7540.02, the NELO template.

59:14 And again, I sent you guys the BPS recommendations

59:17 for those as well. - Yes, you did.

59:18 - Yep. - Right.

59:18 - Anybody have any comments

59:19 on the District Webpage component?

59:22 - I noticed that the,

59:24 I don’t think this was included in your,

59:26 the updates that you did the checkbox,

59:27 but the July and September updates included

59:31 the list of prohibited sites and apps that the DOE puts out

59:35 and specifically mentions TikTok.

59:38 So those are things we’ll need to update

59:40 as they updated that in the most recent rulemaking.

59:43 And that was, I won’t say, I won’t just repeat it,

59:45 but it was in 0.03, 0.04,

59:48 and then I think in 7544.

59:51 Any of those that talk about that, that–

59:54 - The TikTok.

59:55 - They gave that particular list, check the list,

59:59 so that way we don’t have to keep updating it.

1:00:00 But they did specifically say TikTok,

1:00:02 so I’m assuming they’re not thinking

1:00:04 they’re gonna take that off the list.

1:00:06 But we wanna make sure we include that language too.

1:00:08 - We’ll reference the state rule when we make the update.

1:00:11 - Right, right.

1:00:14 - So we’re good with that?

1:00:15 All right, moving on, 7540.03,

1:00:18 Student Network and Internet Acceptability

1:00:20 Use and Safety, Mr. Cheatham.

1:00:24 - We are using the NEOLA template with changes sent.

1:00:27 - Yep, you guys noticed.

1:00:28 You just put all these notes inside there.

1:00:30 If there’s any comments you guys have.

1:00:32 - And the staff, when the next one’s–

1:00:34 - Yep, same thing, I just need to move through it.

1:00:37 All right, next up, 7540.04,

1:00:39 Staff, Adult Network and Internet Acceptability

1:00:42 Use and Safety, Mr. Cheatham.

1:00:47 - Adopting the NEOLA template

1:00:48 with the changes sent to the board.

1:00:50 - Yep, anybody had any conversation on that?

1:00:54 Hearing none, we’ll move on.

1:00:55 7540.05, Electronic Mail, Mr. Cheatham.

1:01:00 - This was renamed by a NEOLA

1:01:02 district issued staff email accounts

1:01:04 and we are recommending to adopt the NEOLA template.

1:01:09 - Any comments on that?

1:01:11 All right, moving forward.

1:01:12 Internet Filtering Curse Policy, 7540.06, Dr. Enville.

1:01:19 - It’s the same thing as all Mr. Cheatham here.

1:01:21 - Yep, next.

1:01:22 - We’re gonna renumber, we’re gonna keep this policy,

1:01:24 but we need to renumber it

1:01:25 because NEOLA has a different policy in this chamber,

1:01:27 so we will renumber this policy and submit it.

1:01:29 - So you’re gonna renumber it?

1:01:30 - Correct.

1:01:31 - Any comments on that?

1:01:32 - No, I recommend it remain as is,

1:01:35 just with a different number?

1:01:37 - Correct.

1:01:37 - Okay, I mean, I didn’t see any problems with it

1:01:39 unless that statute still named that, CIPA,

1:01:45 the Children’s Internet.

1:01:46 - Yes.

1:01:47 - Okay, thank you.

1:01:48 - And I believe this was in an internal written policy,

1:01:51 so we just need to renumber it.

1:01:53 Because it was internal, we gave it our own number,

1:01:54 but NEOLA used the number.

1:01:55 - Gotcha.

1:01:58 - All right, moving on, 7540.07,

1:02:01 Network Change Management Policy.

1:02:05 I’m assuming this is Mr. Cheatham.

1:02:06 - It’s a BPS policy.

1:02:09 - Okay.

1:02:09 - BPS policy that we wanna keep in place.

1:02:11 - You wanna keep it in place, don’t see any updates.

1:02:13 There’s no NEOLA updates, we’re good to go.

1:02:16 Does anybody have any comments on that?

1:02:17 - I’m good with just marking it as reviewed.

1:02:19 - All right, moving on, 7540.08,

1:02:22 Mobile Computing Device Assignment and Use.

1:02:25 Mr. Cheatham.

1:02:27 - Remove policy, it’s covered in 7530.01, 7540.03,

1:02:32 and 7540.04 covers this policy, so we’re removing this one.

1:02:36 - Okay.

1:02:37 - Are we all good with moving to the other policy?

1:02:40 All right.

1:02:41 - Yeah, I just had a note that on this one,

1:02:43 on 7540.10, 7540.12, and on 7540.13,

1:02:49 they’ve got some administrative procedures

1:02:51 that if still relevant need to be put in

1:02:54 wherever they need to go,

1:02:55 because it seemed like they were important information,

1:02:58 as long as they’re updated.

1:02:59 - Got it.

1:03:01 - Good point, Ms. Campbell.

1:03:02 Next up, it’d be 7540.09,

1:03:04 District IT Incident Response Policy.

1:03:07 Mr. Cheatham.

1:03:09 - This is a BPS policy and we would like to keep it in place

1:03:12 but we will be making some revisions.

1:03:14 - Thank you.

1:03:15 Anybody have any comments on that?

1:03:19 - Oh, hang on, are we, what number?

1:03:22 - 7540.09, District IT Incident Response Policy.

1:03:25 - No, you gotcha, sorry, I was jumping on that.

1:03:26 - No, that’s okay.

1:03:29 - I’m good.

1:03:30 - Okay, anybody else?

1:03:31 Hearing none, let’s move on to 7540.10,

1:03:34 District Web Services Policy.

1:03:37 I’m assuming that’s Mr. Cheatham.

1:03:38 - Yes, it is.

1:03:39 We would like to remove this policy.

1:03:41 These items are covered in 7540.02.

1:03:45 - Okay, anybody else wish to speak to that?

1:03:47 Have any problem with that?

1:03:48 Good, all right, moving on, 7540.11,

1:03:51 Electronic Data Confidentiality.

1:03:55 - We would like to keep this in place.

1:03:56 - Keep it in place.

1:03:57 It seems that, anybody else have any comments on it?

1:04:00 - There may be some revisions

1:04:01 but we wanna keep the policy in place.

1:04:04 - Yeah, I’m good with it as is,

1:04:05 unless they have a recommendation.

1:04:07 - Okay.

1:04:09 Hearing nobody else, 7540.12,

1:04:12 Network Access from Personally Owned Computers

1:04:14 and Other Web-enabled Devices.

1:04:17 I’m assuming that’s Mr. Cheatham.

1:04:19 - We’re gonna replace this policy.

1:04:20 It is covered in 7530.02.

1:04:23 - Okay, does anybody wish to speak to this policy at all

1:04:25 before it gets revised and sent over?

1:04:27 All right, moving on, 7540.13,

1:04:31 Utilization of the District’s Website.

1:04:34 Mr. Cheatham.

1:04:35 - We’re replacing this policy, but 7543.

1:04:39 - Okay, anybody have a problem

1:04:41 with him replacing this policy, 7543?

1:04:44 All right, moving on, 7542,

1:04:48 Access to District Technology

1:04:50 or Resources from Wireless Communications Devices.

1:04:54 Dr. Rendell.

1:04:55 - It’s me as well.

1:04:56 - Mr. Cheatham, one more time.

1:04:57 - We’re recommending to adopt an EOLA template.

1:05:01 As the board members review it, some of these policies,

1:05:04 I cover a lot of social media and things

1:05:06 that we’ve been talking about as a district

1:05:07 for quite some time.

1:05:08 So if you have any changes or any concerns,

1:05:10 please let me know as we’re updating it.

1:05:13 - Perfect.

1:05:15 Anybody have any comments on this?

1:05:16 Gonna bring forward the EOLA template

1:05:18 with some changes and move forward with it.

1:05:20 All right, next up, 7543,

1:05:23 Utilization of the District’s Website

1:05:24 and Remote Access to the District’s Network.

1:05:27 Mr. Cheatham.

1:05:28 - Adopting EOLA’s template.

1:05:30 And again, with our remote work policies

1:05:31 and things like that,

1:05:32 I just ask the board to pay close attention

1:05:34 and any concerns that you have for that,

1:05:36 just send them our way and we’ll address them.

1:05:39 - Okay, all right.

1:05:41 That is the last of the policies that we have.

1:05:43 - There’s four more, 7544.

1:05:45 - Hang on a second.

1:05:46 - Two more, actually.

1:05:50 Use of social media.

1:05:53 - Oh, there we go.

1:05:53 I’m so sorry, guys.

1:05:55 Use of social media, 7544.

1:05:59 - We’re gonna adopt the EOLA template.

1:06:00 And again, just because it’s a hot topic,

1:06:02 as you guys review it,

1:06:03 anything you see that you’re concerned with,

1:06:05 let me know and we’ll make sure to incorporate that

1:06:07 into the policy.

1:06:09 - Yeah, I did have a question on this one

1:06:14 because I was looking at the options that you selected

1:06:18 and it looked like down,

1:06:21 I’m trying to get the updates.

1:06:25 I can’t get them pulled up fast enough.

1:06:28 In the one, there was down at the bottom,

1:06:33 it said like pick nine, 10, 11 or 12 or something like that.

1:06:36 You marked 11 and 12, which was the part,

1:06:41 it’s towards the bottom,

1:06:42 employee use of personal communication devices

1:06:44 that work for social media.

1:06:46 The first one says they’re permitted to use

1:06:48 personal communication devices to access social media

1:06:50 for personal use during breaks and meal times.

1:06:52 And then the second one says they can use it

1:06:54 during work hours, provided it does not interfere

1:06:57 with the employee’s job performance.

1:06:58 So Neil had suggested that that’s a,

1:07:01 you do this or do that.

1:07:03 So I didn’t know,

1:07:04 ‘cause it seems like you don’t really need,

1:07:08 if you’re gonna do the second,

1:07:11 you didn’t really need to do the first,

1:07:13 but I don’t know if there was.

1:07:16 - They kind of say the same thing.

1:07:17 So if the board had a preference,

1:07:18 that’s kind of why I selected both of them.

1:07:20 If the board had a preference, I’m fine with either one.

1:07:22 Basically, it’s saying that employees can use it

1:07:24 either on their free time or time,

1:07:26 whether or not involved with instruction.

1:07:29 The first one’s just more,

1:07:30 it’s more specific of during breaks and meal times.

1:07:35 The second one is just saying when kind of free time.

1:07:37 So it’s less specific.

1:07:39 But if the board had an opinion on one or the other,

1:07:42 that’s why I selected both.

1:07:44 But if you don’t, I’ll pick one and move forward.

1:07:46 - Okay.

1:07:48 - Do you guys have an opinion?

1:07:49 - I’m just, go ahead, I go first.

1:07:53 - Ms. Jenkins.

1:07:53 - I don’t feel strongly either way,

1:07:55 but I think it’s better to just do the more broad

1:07:58 and generalized one, because when you create policies

1:08:01 that you can’t really manage,

1:08:03 I think that’s kind of ineffective.

1:08:05 I mean, when you have secondary schools

1:08:06 where people have all different times throughout the day

1:08:08 when they’re free, the reality of managing that

1:08:11 is impossible.

1:08:13 Proving that you had free time

1:08:15 and you weren’t engaged in instruction is a lot easier.

1:08:18 - Right, I mean, I guess the difference

1:08:20 between the first option and the second option is,

1:08:24 are we going to say that a teacher on a planning period

1:08:27 can’t use her planning time or his planning time

1:08:29 to log onto Facebook and check their thing?

1:08:31 I mean, ‘cause that’s not technically a break.

1:08:33 - Right.

1:08:34 - That’s work hours.

1:08:35 I don’t know that I’m ready to jump on that,

1:08:38 ‘cause it’s their planning time.

1:08:39 If they waste it on social media, then that’s their choice.

1:08:42 They’ll still have to do the work.

1:08:45 I was just trying to think of where it might,

1:08:48 I was trying to think outside.

1:08:49 We always think about teachers.

1:08:50 I was trying to think outside of the classroom.

1:08:51 But if we have that in there that doesn’t interfere

1:08:53 with the employee’s job performance.

1:08:56 If you’re a bathroom monitor.

1:08:58 - So I could leave it broad,

1:08:59 or I can try to list more things in option number one.

1:09:02 But as I list them, I’m always gonna,

1:09:05 something’s gonna be missed,

1:09:06 or something’s gonna come up, so.

1:09:07 - Right, well, I just didn’t want them to conflict.

1:09:10 - Like burn down?

1:09:10 - And I guess they don’t conflict.

1:09:11 They just, the second one kind of adds more onto it.

1:09:14 - Yeah, I think option 12, or the second one we’re referring

1:09:17 to is probably safer.

1:09:19 ‘Cause again, with option 11 or nine,

1:09:22 depending on which page you’re looking at,

1:09:24 it just says breaks and meal times.

1:09:26 And then what’s a break?

1:09:28 - Right.

1:09:31 Yeah, and we have different groups of employees

1:09:34 who have different types of schedules and things like that,

1:09:37 so. - Yeah.

1:09:38 Yeah, Mrs. Jenkins is right.

1:09:40 The day of an elementary teacher is much different

1:09:42 than the day of a secondary teacher.

1:09:43 So defining what a break is, and meal time, and.

1:09:48 - Right.

1:09:49 - And next time we do this, again, this is the first time,

1:09:52 but I’ll include the number so it’s a little bit more clear

1:09:54 which option was selected on each one of these.

1:09:56 I apologize for that. - Right, yeah.

1:09:57 I was having to bounce back and forth a little bit

1:09:59 to see which one you got. - The other thing is

1:10:00 it doesn’t necessarily apply just to teachers.

1:10:03 It’s all of our employees, right?

1:10:04 So as long as it doesn’t interfere

1:10:07 with your job performance, I guess is.

1:10:10 - One other question for the board,

1:10:11 and a lot of the NEOLA templates,

1:10:13 it says it charges the superintendent,

1:10:16 but in some of them it says a superintendent or designee.

1:10:18 Do you guys have a preference on that,

1:10:20 or can I just work with Dr. Bendel to figure out

1:10:22 what’s the best approach?

1:10:24 - According to the definitions,

1:10:25 capital S superintendent implies designee.

1:10:28 - Okay.

1:10:32 - Is it good on 75-44? - Yeah, good.

1:10:34 - Pretty good.

1:10:35 All right, moving on to 75-50, joint use of facilities.

1:10:38 There’s some notes in here to move it to 8-10.

1:10:40 - 75-50’s mine.

1:10:42 I looked at 8-100, and that’s the NEOLA template.

1:10:46 75-50 is a Brevard policy,

1:10:48 and I think 8-100 is really the better approach.

1:10:52 So my suggestion would be to delete this policy.

1:10:55 I’ll take a look at 8-100,

1:10:56 make sure it incorporates this, I believe it does.

1:10:58 There’s a paragraph that talks about joint facilities.

1:11:02 So that’s my suggestion, is we delete 75-50,

1:11:05 and just incorporate what we need in 8-100.

1:11:10 - Yeah, and I wanted to take a second and thank Ms. Hand.

1:11:12 We went to the Space Coast League of Cities last night,

1:11:14 and went through all of the,

1:11:16 we met with the mayors and everybody else,

1:11:18 and spoke to our plan to visit the cities.

1:11:21 Right now, as we speak,

1:11:22 and emails going out to all the mayors,

1:11:23 the city managers and city clerks

1:11:25 to establish those meetings,

1:11:27 and we should be on the road here pretty quick.

1:11:29 It was well received,

1:11:30 and I want to say thank you to Ms. Hand.

1:11:32 Interlocal agreements and facility uses

1:11:34 is one of the hot topics that they were speaking to.

1:11:36 Some of them had brought up,

1:11:38 they would like to create satellite locations for adult ed,

1:11:43 in the fact that they could,

1:11:44 they said that they could put 30 people,

1:11:46 but they just can’t,

1:11:47 just 30 people could make it to that area,

1:11:49 but not make it all the way to the other area.

1:11:51 There’s gonna be some really,

1:11:52 really interesting conversations

1:11:54 that wrap around some of these meetings.

1:11:56 We were approached by some people from the community

1:11:58 that were saying things about supporting students.

1:12:00 I think it’s gonna be a great thing.

1:12:01 So I want to say thank you, Ms. Hand.

1:12:03 We had that policy, so.

1:12:05 With that, I think we’re in a good spot

1:12:07 to move towards the next part of our agenda,

1:12:09 which is to discuss public comment,

1:12:13 and I think I’m gonna give the floor to Ms. Campbell,

1:12:16 who would just speak on this topic,

1:12:18 and then we can go from there.

1:12:19 - Thank you.

1:12:20 Yeah, I did some more,

1:12:22 if anybody in the public was confused by the description,

1:12:26 it’s the public, it’s not a public speaking Bill 1069,

1:12:30 but it’s the public speaking aspect

1:12:31 of how that impacts us as a board.

1:12:35 Did some more thinking, talking, listening, soul searching,

1:12:40 and I have,

1:12:44 you know, I’m still gonna put my suggestion on the table

1:12:48 of just, you know, cutting off the cameras

1:12:51 for the live stream specifically for all public comment,

1:12:55 just so we’re treating everybody the same,

1:12:56 but then we would record it and to post it separately

1:12:59 with content warnings if necessary.

1:13:01 So we would always have those,

1:13:02 and I think staff does a really good job

1:13:04 of uploading things really fast.

1:13:05 I think we’re talking about like a day turnaround.

1:13:07 We’re not talking about a week before they get posted,

1:13:09 but you know, just something,

1:13:12 they should be up there quickly.

1:13:13 So I think, ‘cause that just gives us the,

1:13:16 we’re gonna treat everybody the same,

1:13:17 but this content might come out there.

1:13:19 But there is another option that I would,

1:13:23 if we could do that, and I think this is where,

1:13:27 Mr. Tran, I appreciate you taking the consideration

1:13:29 you mentioned the other night

1:13:30 about maybe we’ll just separate agenda and not agenda again

1:13:33 like we had before because of the changes,

1:13:35 but I actually think maybe we could have a,

1:13:38 I very much appreciated your point

1:13:40 of it’s not just the broadcast,

1:13:43 it’s who’s in the room,

1:13:44 because we also have children and students,

1:13:47 other teenage students who attend frequently,

1:13:50 and we want them to attend.

1:13:52 We encourage them, and we love to hear them speak

1:13:54 even when they’re not happy.

1:13:55 It’s students advocating for themselves and for their peers,

1:13:57 and I appreciate that.

1:14:00 So that point was well taken,

1:14:02 and so I wondered if we might have,

1:14:05 rather than agenda, not agenda,

1:14:06 because sometimes these will be on an agenda,

1:14:08 but if we can put the book challenge process

1:14:11 or someone who’s gonna come to do that part at the end,

1:14:14 and we don’t have it live streamed,

1:14:16 but we record it for posterity,

1:14:18 and anybody who wants to see it, we post it,

1:14:20 but that we have that conversation towards the end,

1:14:23 because then we don’t run the risk of exposing

1:14:27 not just the broadcast audience,

1:14:29 but our in-house audience to content

1:14:32 that we might not want them to be exposed to,

1:14:35 and again, I like these FCC rules.

1:14:38 I think they’re important,

1:14:39 and I don’t want to put that out

1:14:41 just for my own level of comfort,

1:14:44 and it’s not just, I know when we think about these things,

1:14:47 we think specifically about the explicit sexual content,

1:14:50 but I have to go back to my statement

1:14:52 that I made the other night,

1:14:53 which is there may be things that we don’t want to broadcast

1:14:57 that don’t rise to the level, or sink to the level,

1:15:00 of prohibited content.

1:15:02 They don’t sink to the level

1:15:03 of that sexually graphic explicit material,

1:15:05 but we still don’t want them going out over our airwaves

1:15:08 in a live broad stream, so that is where my mind

1:15:11 continues to go back to,

1:15:12 so whatever the board would like to consider,

1:15:18 but I do want to put both those out there.

1:15:20 One, that we just cut them off,

1:15:21 and I talked to Dr. Rendell about that

1:15:23 when I first had this concern last week,

1:15:25 and I suggested that might be a good idea,

1:15:29 just in general, to have them off

1:15:32 while we’re doing it, and post them,

1:15:34 but I would also suggest that maybe we could do that,

1:15:37 have it as a separate section,

1:15:39 but again, the non-agenda agenda thing

1:15:41 won’t necessarily help because we will have these.

1:15:44 If we do the policy change

1:15:45 that we were talking about a month ago,

1:15:47 then they will be an agenda item,

1:15:48 and that doesn’t solve that problem, so.

1:15:52 - Okay, so if I can clarify, Ms. Campbell,

1:15:55 you’re trying to discuss moving public comment

1:15:58 to be recorded and not go live,

1:16:00 and I’m also hearing you say

1:16:02 that there may be an opportunity

1:16:04 where in relation to book challenge material

1:16:07 and conversations, we would separate that to the end,

1:16:11 and would we record those also would be your recommendation?

1:16:15 Okay, so you would have two recordings

1:16:17 if anybody was to speak to book challenges,

1:16:19 so it’d be kind of like, okay, you have this,

1:16:22 you have public comment, and anybody that comes in,

1:16:24 unless it’s on the agenda, like you said,

1:16:26 we would move it to the afterwards,

1:16:28 and record that also, and have two recordings.

1:16:30 - No, I’m making two, well,

1:16:33 I’m just trying to clarify. - Maybe I should have made

1:16:34 one suggestion at a time.

1:16:35 It’s either or. (laughs)

1:16:37 My first suggestion was, if the board will go with me,

1:16:40 is that we stop live-streaming the public comments,

1:16:44 we just record them and put ‘em on later,

1:16:46 whether there’s a book challenge process in there or not,

1:16:48 so that would be my first suggestion,

1:16:49 that we just don’t record it.

1:16:53 The second, if we’re not willing to do that,

1:16:55 my second suggestion was, because of Mr. Trent’s point

1:16:58 of people in the room, right,

1:16:59 we gotta consider the audience in the room as well,

1:17:03 that we move all book challenges,

1:17:05 whether on the agenda or not agenda, to the end,

1:17:09 and part of that is going to require that, I think,

1:17:14 there’s no, how, you know, we’ve looked at the law,

1:17:17 and it says, “Challenge material.”

1:17:19 What, somebody could get up there and start reading,

1:17:21 and we don’t know, and here’s why I think

1:17:23 this is so important, because this is putting

1:17:26 all of the weight and the decision-making

1:17:28 on one person on the board

1:17:32 to, of the work that we’ve done in policy and whatever,

1:17:35 and again, not, we’re think, we always think

1:17:37 about the sexually explicit material,

1:17:38 but there’s so many other things that we don’t want to,

1:17:40 I wouldn’t want to be broadcast,

1:17:42 and we’re putting all the weight on the chair,

1:17:43 because they’re the one who’s gonna make the call

1:17:45 of not knowing, of knowing whether this is one of the books

1:17:49 or whatever, so we need to refine that either way

1:17:53 to confirm that this is a book that’s being challenged,

1:17:56 or is it even a book that’s on our shelves?

1:17:57 Is it a book, I’ve had some people say,

1:17:59 “Oh, you still have it.”

1:18:00 And I’m like, “No, we do not have it.”

1:18:02 But they’re still looking at an old reference

1:18:04 of where it is, so I’m trying not,

1:18:06 I’m sorry that I’m mixing some kind of things,

1:18:08 but I really feel like it, either or,

1:18:12 is what I’m looking at, Mr. Susan.

1:18:15 - Okay, I will say, just for a point of clarification,

1:18:19 I have no problem issuing and controlling

1:18:22 the board’s decision when these are coming up.

1:18:24 Like, that’s not an issue at all for me,

1:18:26 so if that’s ever kind of the weight of it

1:18:28 and everything else, I’ve never felt the weight of it.

1:18:30 I have no problem identifying the books

1:18:32 that are being challenged.

1:18:33 I have no problem doing all of that stuff.

1:18:35 But I will clarify for you that Ms. Campbell

1:18:37 would like to, one, make the recommendation to move,

1:18:40 not to record live, and two, in the event

1:18:43 that there’s a book challenges and stuff like that,

1:18:46 she’d like to have that possibly separated.

1:18:49 And then there was also a third component

1:18:50 which said that we would like to have a,

1:18:54 “Hey, if this is a book that you wish to speak to,

1:18:56 “then please notify the book,” and if it’s being challenged

1:18:59 or not, I’m okay with that component of it.

1:19:02 That would be nice to know ahead of time.

1:19:03 But those are the three things to discuss,

1:19:05 so I’ll leave the floor open

1:19:06 if anybody wishes to discuss it.

1:19:09 Anybody have any comments on it?

1:19:12 Ms. Jenkins.

1:19:13 - So, Mr. Gibbs, I have a couple of questions first.

1:19:16 - Yep.

1:19:17 - Legal questions.

1:19:19 So, if we decided to leave it as it was,

1:19:24 and if we had one meeting where clearly it’s abused,

1:19:29 and then we decide meetings forward to change it,

1:19:35 does that put us in legal jeopardy

1:19:36 because it’s obvious that we’re changing it

1:19:39 because of the behavior that was displayed?

1:19:42 - As I said at the meeting,

1:19:43 I think you could potentially run into a claim

1:19:46 for viewpoint discrimination

1:19:47 if you’re only impacting book review type material.

1:19:53 That’s something I would wanna look at

1:19:55 with the case law out there

1:19:56 and see if there’s any possible guidance on it.

1:19:59 If the decision is,

1:20:00 “Hey, we’re just gonna cut public comment,”

1:20:03 I don’t think so ‘cause everybody

1:20:04 that’s providing public comment is treated the same.

1:20:08 So, everybody would be non-livestreamed

1:20:12 and recorded and posted.

1:20:14 - Okay.

1:20:17 My other legal question would be,

1:20:19 are we going to put ourselves into a legal question

1:20:24 if we don’t do agenda, non-agenda,

1:20:28 but we do just book challenges separately?

1:20:31 - That would go back to if you just moved them

1:20:34 to the end of the meeting and livestreamed them,

1:20:36 then you’d probably be okay.

1:20:38 That’s separating agenda versus there,

1:20:40 but could someone make out a claim?

1:20:43 They could argue it.

1:20:44 I think that you would be on firmer ground

1:20:47 saying, “We’re just controlling our agenda

1:20:49 “by moving those toward the end of the meeting

1:20:51 “if someone wants to do that.”

1:20:53 - Okay.

1:20:55 So, I needed to ask those questions

1:20:57 before I formulate my final opinion here,

1:21:01 but I get where you’re going, Ms. Campbell,

1:21:04 with putting the book challenges at the end.

1:21:05 My concern is that’s gonna be a lawsuit waiting to happen.

1:21:09 Even if we’re on firmer ground, it’s not concrete,

1:21:14 and it would concern me that someone would say

1:21:16 if we’re only putting book challenges in one area

1:21:18 that we’re classifying those when we shouldn’t be

1:21:22 versus when we had agenda versus non-agenda

1:21:24 because we’re not required to do non-agenda.

1:21:27 So if we’re gonna do that,

1:21:28 I think it has to be one or the other,

1:21:30 and I’m not saying I’m for or against it either way.

1:21:33 That’s just my concern legally.

1:21:38 When it comes to live or recorded,

1:21:41 so originally when we had these conversations

1:21:43 about cutting the camera, I was always against it

1:21:47 because I think it fell into the trap

1:21:50 of lack of transparency for the community,

1:21:53 but if we’re recording it,

1:21:55 ‘cause that wasn’t part of the conversation last time,

1:21:57 then my concern goes away.

1:21:59 I don’t see the difference.

1:22:01 It doesn’t really matter if it’s live or it’s recorded,

1:22:03 and I guess my question would be,

1:22:05 we posted immediately after the live’s over,

1:22:08 so I don’t, and someone in GCR might yell at me

1:22:12 and tell me this is impossible,

1:22:13 but I don’t see why we can’t post

1:22:14 the recorded right away, too.

1:22:16 I don’t know why there would be a huge lapse.

1:22:19 So if, again, I would like to know the answer

1:22:23 to that question, ‘cause if that’s true,

1:22:26 if it could literally get posted right after the meeting,

1:22:28 then I have no problem with that.

1:22:29 I mean, I don’t see the concern there at all.

1:22:35 The other thing, too, that I think is important

1:22:37 for the public to be aware is this bill

1:22:41 isn’t necessarily saying that parents have the right

1:22:44 to read the passages aloud and be stopped

1:22:47 at a board meeting.

1:22:47 It has nothing to do with that.

1:22:49 The bill is intentionally written broadly

1:22:51 like every other piece of legislation

1:22:53 that has come through in the past two years

1:22:55 so that it can be manipulated and/or put in the hands

1:22:59 of other people to make these decisions

1:23:00 and create the ramifications,

1:23:02 and so what the bill is saying is that parents have a right

1:23:07 to have access to the book,

1:23:09 whether it be electronic or in hand,

1:23:12 and read it if it was objected,

1:23:14 which makes sense, so you’re not hiding the content

1:23:17 that has been objected to,

1:23:20 but it has already been abused in other counties

1:23:22 to be used a different way,

1:23:24 and that wasn’t the intention, in my opinion,

1:23:27 when you read it, but there’s nothing stopping them

1:23:30 from getting away from that legally, correct, Mr. Gibbs,

1:23:33 ‘cause it’s just broad?

1:23:34 - You can read it in numerous ways,

1:23:37 and that’s where the attorneys have come down

1:23:39 and is like, well, we read it this way,

1:23:41 but the plain definition of to read

1:23:45 is either read to yourself or read out loud,

1:23:48 so if your public comment period allows non-agenda topics,

1:23:53 they can come and read it out loud over their three minutes,

1:23:56 and if you stop them based on the plain language

1:23:59 and the rule, then you’re supposed

1:24:02 to stop use of that material.

1:24:03 - Yeah, so the reason I bring that up

1:24:06 is just for the public.

1:24:07 Because we’re talking about it one way,

1:24:10 the way it would be abused,

1:24:12 I just want the public to be aware of,

1:24:14 that’s the way it would be abused.

1:24:16 That’s not what it, at least I don’t think,

1:24:19 the main intention was here.

1:24:20 The intention was so parents had access

1:24:21 to those books that were being challenged,

1:24:23 and they had a right to access those books.

1:24:26 So I just want the public to be aware.

1:24:28 This isn’t a law that the state created intentionally

1:24:30 for parents to come read at the podium

1:24:32 and we’re trying to circumvent in any way.

1:24:35 And then I said this last time, but I’ll say it again.

1:24:38 I’m not concerned about the burden it puts on one person.

1:24:41 I just think it’s inappropriate that one person

1:24:44 makes that decision for the entire district.

1:24:48 I think that’s the whole point of the policy

1:24:49 and the committee that we had put in place.

1:24:52 Especially when it’s the consequence

1:24:55 of a very broadly written law

1:24:57 that has nothing to do with that exact scenario.

1:25:00 So I would be most in favor for leaving it alone,

1:25:06 and if it’s abuse changing it,

1:25:07 I’m just concerned about the legal ramifications

1:25:09 if we do that, because then the only solution

1:25:13 would be changing it to agenda, not agenda then,

1:25:16 according to what I just asked,

1:25:17 if someone else has a different clarification or question.

1:25:21 I’m most in favor for that.

1:25:24 Let the public react to this law,

1:25:27 and if they choose to react a certain way

1:25:28 and we as a board choose to respond to it,

1:25:30 I think that’s the appropriate thing to do.

1:25:32 But I’m also not against, that’s my number one choice,

1:25:36 but I’m not against Ms. Campbell’s choice of recording it,

1:25:40 as long as it’s posted exactly

1:25:42 when the live meeting is posted.

1:25:43 Which again, I don’t understand why we can’t do that.

1:25:46 That way there’s no delay

1:25:47 and there’s as little conflict as possible.

1:25:52 - So I’m hearing you say that you’re okay to move

1:25:54 to not record them live only if they can be released

1:25:59 fairly shortly after the meeting, is that true?

1:26:05 - Okay, I don’t need clarification of what I said,

1:26:07 so I’m gonna say it again,

1:26:08 ‘cause I don’t want it to get misinterpreted.

1:26:11 My number one choice is to let it be,

1:26:15 but if it’s abused, I expect this board

1:26:17 to have a conversation about the response to that.

1:26:21 Because I would hope that this board,

1:26:24 like Ms. Campbell said, respects that that’s not

1:26:27 why this law was written, to be abused that way,

1:26:30 to ban books off of our shelves.

1:26:32 And I hope this board will respect the policy

1:26:34 that they created themselves and the committee

1:26:36 they created themselves and the people they appointed

1:26:38 to the committee to have that conversation if it’s abused.

1:26:43 That’s my number one priority.

1:26:45 My second choice would be to record it

1:26:48 and post it immediately with the live stream.

1:26:53 - Okay, thank you, Ms. Jenkins.

1:26:55 Is anybody over here?

1:26:57 Mr. Trump.

1:26:59 - I think it’s good.

1:27:01 I believe we need to continue with the conversation

1:27:04 of first choice, second choice, yes,

1:27:08 I guess we could leave it alone.

1:27:11 I’ve always been a fan of splitting the public comment

1:27:17 of agenda, non-agenda items, and then not recording,

1:27:23 you know, not live streaming of the non-agenda items.

1:27:26 Ms. Campbell, it corrects, it’s gonna be on the agenda

1:27:29 at some point, books, and the good thing about that,

1:27:33 I don’t believe it’ll be meeting after meeting,

1:27:36 that it’ll be on the agenda, so maybe at that point

1:27:39 we would fall back on the chair to take charge of that one.

1:27:48 If we leave it the same way, I think we know which way,

1:27:52 I think I know how the public comment’s gonna go.

1:27:56 And we’d just be discussing this again at another time

1:28:00 if we leave it.

1:28:01 So I’m for splitting the public comment,

1:28:06 I am just off the top of my head,

1:28:08 I think that would be wise.

1:28:10 I mean, we have work to do, we have to govern,

1:28:12 and we’ve seen meetings, and you’ve seen longer meetings

1:28:15 than me, where it’s just, by the time we get down

1:28:20 to doing what we’re supposed to be doing,

1:28:22 it’s way into the evening, and that’s unfortunate.

1:28:27 So I just think it would be a better way

1:28:29 to run our meetings, but that’s just my two cents there.

1:28:33 - So you’re suggesting a third option.

1:28:35 (laughing)

1:28:37 - Well, you kinda had that, didn’t you?

1:28:38 And Ms. Jenkins mentioned it, too,

1:28:40 about this is where we can discuss it.

1:28:42 - Could you just clarify, you just wanna separate it,

1:28:45 but you don’t wanna stop the livestream.

1:28:48 - On non-agenda items, I would stop the livestream.

1:28:50 - You would? - Yeah.

1:28:51 - Okay, sorry, I couldn’t hear you.

1:28:52 - No, it’s fine, it’s just working.

1:28:54 - So yeah, I think that’s the same as Ms. Campbell.

1:28:58 I thought it was. - But not recording.

1:29:01 Recording and playing later?

1:29:03 - Yeah, I don’t mind if it’s recorded.

1:29:04 I think people need to hear it if they wanna hear it.

1:29:06 - Right, but it wouldn’t be livestreamed.

1:29:09 - Not livestreamed.

1:29:10 I mean, I think that would stop.

1:29:13 And it really isn’t about who’s speaking when.

1:29:16 I just don’t think it’s necessary.

1:29:18 I mean, if the objective for public comment

1:29:21 is to get us to hear something, then they’re achieving it.

1:29:25 If it’s anything other than that,

1:29:30 it’s not productive for us and it’s showing.

1:29:33 - Right, and we’ve had that conversation before.

1:29:35 You don’t have a constitutional right

1:29:38 to our cameras and microphones.

1:29:40 You have a right to our ear.

1:29:44 So I understand that.

1:29:45 When we did that before, that was what everybody,

1:29:49 so the difference factor would be the recording.

1:29:54 So I’ll hear you.

1:29:55 - Can I, I’m assuming this,

1:29:58 but I just want to ask a legal clarification

1:30:02 and then make a statement in case anyone’s listening.

1:30:04 So Mr. Gibbs, would there be an issue

1:30:07 if we are recording it and posting it

1:30:12 in its entirety in true form in terms,

1:30:18 is it just for live broadcasting

1:30:20 where we fall into that issue?

1:30:23 - What do you mean?

1:30:24 You two spill out all kinds of stuff,

1:30:25 so I don’t think we’re breaking any rules there.

1:30:27 - The FCC would only apply to our live broadcast.

1:30:30 At that point, you’re on the internet

1:30:32 and searching it out yourself, so you would be fine.

1:30:34 - So I guess I’m just gonna make a statement,

1:30:38 and I think it’s a fair assumption here,

1:30:40 but that the three people who made that comment

1:30:42 about recording it, the intention is for it to be recorded

1:30:45 and posted exactly how it is, no editing, no, yeah, yeah.

1:30:49 And I mean, I’m assuming that.

1:30:51 I just, you know, when people are gonna listen to this,

1:30:53 they’re gonna be really sensitive and concerned about that,

1:30:55 so I wanted to say it publicly for all of us.

1:31:01 - And in a clarification of mine,

1:31:03 when we talk about recording,

1:31:04 say recording non-agenda comments,

1:31:08 are we talking video and audio or just audio?

1:31:11 - Yeah, just like we do other things.

1:31:14 And to, hey, to jump in here, I mean, just other,

1:31:17 some of the other boards in the state

1:31:19 don’t have to deal with this

1:31:20 because they either don’t record

1:31:23 and broadcast their meetings at all,

1:31:25 and there are a few counties who don’t.

1:31:27 If you wanna watch the meeting,

1:31:28 you gotta be there in person.

1:31:30 Or they don’t livestream it, they record it,

1:31:32 and they upload it later.

1:31:33 So these rules don’t apply to them.

1:31:36 That doesn’t handle my personal code

1:31:38 of I don’t want it going out on my watch.

1:31:41 But it does, they don’t have to deal with the FCC rules,

1:31:43 like the counties like ours that livestream.

1:31:46 So it’s, some counties just don’t have to deal with that.

1:31:49 So they have just allowed whatever to happen

1:31:51 and they’re dealing with it.

1:31:52 ‘Cause it’s been happening in other places

1:31:54 besides just Indian River.

1:31:59 - Okay, so real quick,

1:32:00 if I can kind of make some sense out of it.

1:32:02 I know, I know, I know, I know,

1:32:04 but just so I can get this,

1:32:05 the conversation has been wrapped around live streaming

1:32:08 or recording, right, the agenda items.

1:32:11 And then the other topic that’s sort of starting to come up

1:32:13 is whether we move to agenda and non-agenda items.

1:32:18 And we’ve kind of given some conversation around that.

1:32:22 If I could just ask real quick,

1:32:26 Ms. Campbell is in favor of recording them.

1:32:29 Are you also in favor of splitting the agenda

1:32:31 to the non-agenda?

1:32:33 - If that’s where we can get,

1:32:34 I mean, that’s why this conversation,

1:32:36 let’s just everybody kind of talk

1:32:37 and come up what we can come to consensus to,

1:32:39 because I could be in favor of that.

1:32:42 At some point, it’s going to be on the agenda.

1:32:44 So that’s, and to your point, Ms. Trent,

1:32:47 that’s going to be,

1:32:48 it’s whenever the committee makes a recommendation, right,

1:32:50 and then we’ll have to come up and it will just depend.

1:32:55 I could be, I could be agreeable to that.

1:32:59 - So what you’re saying, if I can get this straight,

1:33:02 is you’re okay with splitting the agenda, non-agenda,

1:33:05 and then what you’re saying is,

1:33:07 is that we would not record the non-agenda,

1:33:09 or could you give some clarification to that?

1:33:11 So say we split it, which is what she says

1:33:13 she’s in favor of.

1:33:14 Are you saying to record both agenda and non-agenda

1:33:16 and release them?

1:33:17 Or are you saying to only record the non-agenda?

1:33:20 I just– - No, no.

1:33:23 You asked what I really want?

1:33:25 I don’t believe that would be,

1:33:28 I don’t think we can get,

1:33:29 I don’t think we can get away with that.

1:33:31 I think we should record both.

1:33:35 And I believe that’s what Ms. Jenkins and Ms. Campbell–

1:33:37 - Broadcast, record both or broadcast?

1:33:39 - We’re not gonna live, no, not live streaming it.

1:33:42 - Which one? - The non-agenda.

1:33:43 - Okay, right, right, right, that’s what I thought.

1:33:44 - You need to do the agenda.

1:33:46 - So we would live stream the agenda, not live stream,

1:33:49 and record the non-agenda, is what it is, okay?

1:33:52 Is that– - From what I’m hearing,

1:33:55 that’s exactly what– - Is that what you’re saying?

1:33:57 - The two have spoken so far, have also said.

1:34:00 - Yeah, the separation I was originally suggesting

1:34:02 was just moving the book challenges to the end,

1:34:05 whether they’re agenda or non-agenda,

1:34:06 but if that’s not gonna fly, that’s fine.

1:34:13 Mr. Gibbs, is that something we can do

1:34:16 if we separate them from agenda to non-agenda?

1:34:18 - Yeah, non-agenda, you can eliminate

1:34:21 non-agenda comments altogether.

1:34:23 So if the board says we’re only gonna hear comments

1:34:27 to the agenda items at night,

1:34:29 then the board is well within its rights to do so.

1:34:33 - All right, so it looks like it has legal standing.

1:34:36 Looks like you have, Ms. Jenkins,

1:34:38 is that something that you would support doing,

1:34:41 separating the agenda to non-agenda?

1:34:42 And going that route?

1:34:45 - Mr. Susan, I already said my piece.

1:34:49 I think he’s trying to get it straight in his own mind.

1:34:51 - Just trying to get it straight here

1:34:52 so that we can then move forward.

1:34:53 - And after we, I’m sure after we hear from the two of you–

1:34:55 - Go ahead, Ms. Megan. - It’s clear as mud.

1:34:58 Yeah, this is one of those things where,

1:35:00 listen, public comment is everyone loves free speech,

1:35:03 but when it comes down to the time to actually defend it,

1:35:07 which is kind of where we’re at right now,

1:35:08 like how much do you love it?

1:35:09 I get it, it’s not comfortable.

1:35:12 - I guess the FCC regulation is really

1:35:14 what is messing with us on televising live,

1:35:19 if I’m understanding this correctly,

1:35:20 the stuff that’s getting read from this.

1:35:24 Is that correct, Mr. Gibbs?

1:35:26 That is really what this is all about.

1:35:28 - The FCC rules play into it.

1:35:30 Now, I’ll say, I’ve never heard of a district get hit

1:35:36 for an FCC violation for allowing people

1:35:39 to read books on their broadcast,

1:35:41 and there are some counties that have allowed it for a while

1:35:45 even before the book challenge statute came down,

1:35:48 they had people come and read books

1:35:50 and argue the book shouldn’t be there,

1:35:52 and they’ve never been hit.

1:35:56 - To clarify, though, obscene,

1:35:58 this is straight from the FCC rules page,

1:36:00 obscene content does not have protection

1:36:02 by the First Amendment.

1:36:02 So I talk about defending,

1:36:03 I will defend the First Amendment,

1:36:05 and I actually don’t, I will defend,

1:36:06 I’m gonna, our public is gonna come alive and unglued

1:36:10 if we don’t allow non-agenda items at all,

1:36:14 which is our right to do.

1:36:16 But just to be clear, this isn’t a free speech.

1:36:20 You don’t have a right to say everything you wanna say

1:36:23 at every location that you want to say it.

1:36:25 That’s not the First Amendment.

1:36:29 - So I’m where I was before,

1:36:32 and as uncomfortable as that situation is,

1:36:34 so I guess at this point,

1:36:35 it sounds like the board majority

1:36:36 is moving a different direction anyways,

1:36:38 but I can see the benefit

1:36:41 of having agenda versus non-agenda.

1:36:43 It probably would help this board as far as governance goes,

1:36:46 just because it is a little rough

1:36:47 to have to hear 30, 40 people come out

1:36:49 and hurl insults for three minutes

1:36:51 and then be in your best frame of mind to govern afterwards.

1:36:55 So if there were any compromise

1:36:57 I was gonna make on this one,

1:36:59 I would be in favor of supporting the agenda

1:37:01 versus the non-agenda split.

1:37:06 - As far as televising it live versus playing it back,

1:37:10 here’s the other reality,

1:37:11 is that if somebody sits here and reads it

1:37:13 and we’re not streaming it live

1:37:15 and there’s kids in the room,

1:37:17 the kids in the room are still hearing it,

1:37:18 so it doesn’t protect them if we’re not streaming it live.

1:37:21 You know what I’m saying?

1:37:22 So that’s where I just like,

1:37:24 there’s no perfect answer in this situation, unfortunately.

1:37:26 There really isn’t.

1:37:27 And so what I hope would happen

1:37:29 is that the community would recognize the fact

1:37:31 that we have revised the policy

1:37:32 that we have put into place some protections at this point,

1:37:36 so the need to come here and read a book doesn’t really,

1:37:39 it’s not necessary ‘cause the book isn’t accessible

1:37:41 if it’s gone through the formal challenge process anyways,

1:37:44 so all you’re really doing is looking

1:37:46 for a three-minute clip.

1:37:47 And then the other thing I’ll say

1:37:47 about agenda versus non-agenda,

1:37:49 which is very maddening to me,

1:37:50 is that we have people come

1:37:52 and they speak every single week or every other week,

1:37:54 whatever it is at our board meetings,

1:37:56 and never once try to reach out to me anyways,

1:37:58 I don’t know about you guys,

1:37:59 to sit down and talk to us about these things,

1:38:01 to actually have a conversation.

1:38:03 So public comment is frustrating.

1:38:04 It is extremely frustrating

1:38:05 ‘cause we understand that people are doing it

1:38:07 because they want to have three minutes of a clip,

1:38:11 in essence.

1:38:12 And so, again, where I’m at, where I fall,

1:38:15 is if I were gonna do any compromise,

1:38:16 it would be I would split the agenda versus the non-agenda.

1:38:19 That way, people are speaking towards the things

1:38:22 that we’re actually governing on that evening,

1:38:24 and then at the end of it,

1:38:25 we can take the attacks that are gonna get hurled over,

1:38:29 things that are not on the agenda, so.

1:38:32 - All right, so Paul, it would be a policy change

1:38:35 to move it to separate, correct?

1:38:38 - Yes, we’d have to change the policy,

1:38:40 and in the meantime, you would have to make motions

1:38:44 to split the agenda again, like you’ve done in the past.

1:38:48 But just some considerations that came up

1:38:51 last time we had the split is how are you gonna handle

1:38:54 someone who wants agenda and non-agenda topics?

1:38:58 Are you gonna take all of their comments

1:39:00 in one three-minute block during agenda?

1:39:04 In which case you’re creating a loophole,

1:39:06 so somebody will talk to an agenda item for 30 seconds

1:39:10 and then spend the rest of their two and a half minutes

1:39:13 reading a book.

1:39:15 Or are you going to say you get two three-minute periods,

1:39:19 you can have your three minutes on an agenda topic,

1:39:22 and then three minutes at the end on non-agenda topics

1:39:25 like we did last time?

1:39:27 - I think we can get to that in a second,

1:39:28 and we can also get to that.

1:39:30 I just, I wanted to say that I do hear a board majority,

1:39:32 I’ll speak to all these topics,

1:39:34 but before I get going I just wanted to make sure

1:39:36 I hear a board majority of splitting the agenda topics.

1:39:39 I wasn’t completely sure on whether we are recording these

1:39:43 or if we’re going to let agenda and non-agenda run.

1:39:46 Can I get clarification on that?

1:39:48 Megan, did you want to allow it to be recorded

1:39:51 or do you want it to allow it to be live?

1:39:56 - I guess I, to me, I was in favor of live always,

1:40:01 but that’s, yeah, I guess it’s not a government majority.

1:40:04 It sounds like everyone’s kind of been

1:40:05 reporting versus– - Okay.

1:40:07 - Sorry, I’m not– - And I’m sorry

1:40:09 to go back in reverse order.

1:40:11 - Yeah, no, it’s okay.

1:40:12 - Mr. Trent, do you want to record the,

1:40:17 both agenda and non-agenda and split them too?

1:40:20 Is that kind of the direction that you would like to go?

1:40:23 - I would prefer live streaming the agenda comment.

1:40:28 - Okay. - And record the non-agenda.

1:40:31 - Okay, and then Ms. Campbell, can you get clarification?

1:40:34 - Right, if we’re gonna split agenda and non-agenda,

1:40:36 I would, like Mr. Trent, I’d rather live stream

1:40:38 the agenda comments and record the non-agenda

1:40:43 to be posted soon after.

1:40:45 - Okay, and Ms. Jenkins, you wanna give some clarification?

1:40:49 - Yeah, so I just, I want to reiterate,

1:40:52 there is a board majority, but I do want to reiterate,

1:40:54 like my number one choice is to allow the public

1:40:57 to speak and not abuse it first.

1:41:01 But because there’s already a board majority

1:41:03 and my second choice was if there was a problem,

1:41:05 we’d get to this point anyway,

1:41:07 my preference would be to just record it.

1:41:10 There’s no point, there’s no point of live streaming it.

1:41:12 But I do, I just want to throw this out there to you guys,

1:41:15 but also to the public.

1:41:18 There’s still nothing stopping the public from abusing this

1:41:22 by walking up to an agenda for an agenda item

1:41:26 and not speaking on the agenda.

1:41:27 - And then I cut them off. - And then being stopped.

1:41:29 - Correct, and I cut them off.

1:41:30 And so I really hope that people don’t do that.

1:41:35 And again, I’m gonna say it again,

1:41:37 if we get to that point, I hope that this board

1:41:40 is willing to have a conversation about what to do

1:41:42 from that point forward, ‘cause that’s just inappropriate.

1:41:46 - Yeah, I would say there is, it’s not,

1:41:49 I don’t know that I’ve ever seen it be used.

1:41:51 In fact, there were several times over the last couple years

1:41:53 it should have been used, but among the things

1:41:56 that the board chair can stop a speaker for

1:42:01 includes when it’s too lengthy,

1:42:05 obviously that’s when the timer goes off,

1:42:07 personally directed except is allowed above with us, right,

1:42:11 abusive, obscene, or irrelevant.

1:42:15 So if someone comes up to speak to an agenda item

1:42:19 and they start going off another topic,

1:42:21 the chair can stop them for speaking,

1:42:23 for a speech that’s irrelevant.

1:42:25 You know, there’s a couple times in the past–

1:42:26 - But this is written so broadly

1:42:28 that they could apply this probably.

1:42:30 - Well, I’m gonna say that, I’m gonna say it wouldn’t,

1:42:33 because he would stop him not for the language in the book,

1:42:37 but because this is not the agenda item,

1:42:39 so no, it’s something that is already built into our policy.

1:42:44 So if someone, and it’s built, and therefore someone

1:42:46 comes up and starts talking about immigration policy,

1:42:49 the chair should be able to stop him and say,

1:42:50 thank you so much, I appreciate your concern,

1:42:51 but that doesn’t, that’s not relevant here.

1:42:53 We have no control over that.

1:42:55 And we’ve had, I only use that example

1:42:57 ‘cause we had somebody talk about that one time.

1:42:59 That is absolutely an abuse of I want your microphone

1:43:02 and your camera to, you know, to do whatever thing.

1:43:05 But I, you know, Ms. Wright and Ms. Jenkins,

1:43:08 you both mentioned we hope no one would,

1:43:10 but I want you to remember that a few meetings ago,

1:43:14 we had three ladies stand up and read from books

1:43:17 who are already in the process, and so yes,

1:43:19 I would want them to know, hey, the process is going.

1:43:22 These are all very off the shelf,

1:43:23 but yet they were already doing it.

1:43:26 So we’ve already had it happen actually here.

1:43:28 We just didn’t have in place this statute

1:43:31 and this conversation.

1:43:32 So, you know, I–

1:43:36 - Yeah, and I’m only saying that just because

1:43:39 this is complicated and we’ve come to, I’d say,

1:43:43 a compromise and agreement amongst everyone.

1:43:46 And again, my first choice was to let it go

1:43:48 and then to get here, but we’re here,

1:43:49 so let’s talk about it.

1:43:51 But I just want people to be aware of that

1:43:53 so when it happens, it’s not like,

1:43:55 it doesn’t seem like it’s reactionary for me to say,

1:43:57 hey, we need to have this conversation,

1:43:59 because this has always been my true intention.

1:44:01 Regardless of who’s coming up to that microphone

1:44:03 and taking advantage of it, it’s just wrong,

1:44:05 it’s inappropriate.

1:44:06 So I just hope we can be open minded

1:44:08 if we have to get there.

1:44:09 I hope we don’t have to get there.

1:44:11 - So I think we have clear majority for separating them too

1:44:16 and not recording, or I’m sorry,

1:44:18 going to a recording of the non-agenda items.

1:44:21 I think I’m hearing that pretty clear.

1:44:23 I did want to tell everybody my viewpoints.

1:44:26 Florida Statute 610 requires a disclaimer

1:44:29 for any of this FCCC stuff,

1:44:31 and it allows a governmental entity with a disclaimer

1:44:35 to continue to not worry about violating FCCC rules.

1:44:39 Part of the reason that we haven’t seen anything come out

1:44:42 is because there’s that gray area,

1:44:44 but I think moving forward, we should have a disclaimer

1:44:48 in the event that that protects us from any kind

1:44:51 of those governmentals.

1:44:51 So I would say that–

1:44:53 - You mean regardless of what happens?

1:44:55 - Yeah, I’ve just got to have a disclaimer,

1:44:57 and it’s actually inside of some of the scripts,

1:45:00 but it’s not written as a disclaimer.

1:45:02 It’s kind of just like, hey, you got to act correctly.

1:45:05 But as a disclaimer to give us some sort of padding there.

1:45:08 I would say that I’m concerned about us coming forward

1:45:11 with this based upon a single issue.

1:45:14 Going back as long as I have,

1:45:17 we’ve seen so many regarding issues coming up

1:45:21 to change policy based on that.

1:45:23 And I feel very confident that the decision

1:45:25 that you guys made was to move,

1:45:27 separate all non-agenda items,

1:45:29 which is not saying, okay,

1:45:30 ‘cause I was beginning to have a problem

1:45:32 with you guys separating based upon only book challenges.

1:45:36 That would have been kind of the inappropriate way

1:45:38 to do it, I feel.

1:45:40 But I do feel this.

1:45:41 I do feel that I pushed forward a policy

1:45:44 that said that I agreed to let everybody come up,

1:45:47 have their three minutes during the agenda piece

1:45:50 and to let it run.

1:45:51 So that’s where my feelings are,

1:45:53 is that I don’t mind it being live.

1:45:54 I don’t mind it being, I would vote to have it live

1:45:57 and I would vote to have it to where they could speak

1:45:59 at during the agenda items for public speaking.

1:46:03 But I do appreciate your guys’ concern

1:46:05 and I do appreciate you guys separating it.

1:46:08 What I would say is if your concerns are over

1:46:11 some of the stuff happening,

1:46:12 that Paul, we move this policy forward.

1:46:15 It should be a very brief, quick one.

1:46:17 So I don’t know if you can notice it

1:46:18 and bring it forward for conversation.

1:46:21 Are you guys okay with a fast track on this thing happening?

1:46:24 Okay.

1:46:25 - I’ll get it on the next available.

1:46:26 It might not, it’s probably not gonna be the 19th.

1:46:28 So you’re probably looking at October just because.

1:46:30 - Do you feel like you have,

1:46:31 and I’ll give everybody a chance to talk.

1:46:33 I know everybody wants to kind of say something afterwards,

1:46:34 but Paul, do you feel like you have a clear direction

1:46:37 on what you need to put in that policy?

1:46:39 - The only thing that’s missing is are you doing

1:46:41 the two, three minute pieces that I had brought up earlier?

1:46:44 My direction would say to give them

1:46:46 the two, three minute periods.

1:46:48 I’m not gonna split and try to take 2.45 of one

1:46:51 and 15 of another.

1:46:53 If that’s okay with you guys, it would be easier.

1:46:55 - And that’ll make it more difficult for the chair

1:46:57 to stop someone from being irrelevant

1:47:00 if we’re telling them this is the only time

1:47:01 you get to speak.

1:47:02 It does give the opportunity for people

1:47:03 to speak multiple times,

1:47:04 which honestly some people have asked for.

1:47:06 But if they’re willing to stick around

1:47:07 to the end of the talk, a different issue.

1:47:08 But I think we do need to have the chairs gonna need to,

1:47:10 and when I say the chair, don’t think just about you.

1:47:13 - No, no, no, I get it. - Posterity stay.

1:47:15 Whoever is in that role needs to be able

1:47:17 to stop someone for being irrelevant.

1:47:19 And if we make them do it all at once,

1:47:20 they’re not gonna be able to do that.

1:47:22 - I will say this, you guys.

1:47:24 The main thing, and I wanted to make this clear

1:47:26 as far as what I believe in allowing them to come is this,

1:47:29 is that we have sometimes a long meeting

1:47:31 and we have employees that come to speak to us

1:47:34 on specific topics.

1:47:35 And when they have to come up here

1:47:37 and they have to wait until the end of the meeting,

1:47:38 it was kind of hard, you know what I mean?

1:47:40 But to that regard, they also have the availability

1:47:43 to send us an email and to communicate with us,

1:47:45 which is what Ms. Megan was asking for.

1:47:47 So I completely understand that argument too.

1:47:49 So I think we have some clear direction.

1:47:51 Paul, if you can figure out a way to get it

1:47:53 as fast as possible, ‘cause I hear that from the board.

1:47:55 - Can I ask one technical question, Paul, real fast,

1:47:58 ‘cause I don’t know if this needs to be written

1:47:59 into the policy or not.

1:47:59 But the chair has the ability to stop public comment

1:48:05 when it’s, if we change the policy,

1:48:06 as we’re saying, we’re changing the policy,

1:48:08 when a public comment comes forward

1:48:10 and they’re speaking to a non-agenda item

1:48:12 under the agenda item,

1:48:13 the chair has the ability to stop them.

1:48:15 Is there a way to write into policy that after like,

1:48:17 hey, three strikes, you’re out.

1:48:19 So like, they will lose their right

1:48:20 to continue public comment if they don’t.

1:48:22 - No, I wouldn’t.

1:48:23 - I wouldn’t go there.

1:48:24 I would just, like if someone gets up there as mentioned

1:48:27 and wants to read a book during the agenda portion

1:48:31 and it’s not on the agenda, you’re not stopping them.

1:48:34 I think that the chair’s response should be,

1:48:38 excuse me, you’re speaking to a non-agenda topic

1:48:41 during the agenda, do you have an agenda topic

1:48:43 you would like to discuss tonight?

1:48:45 If not, I will move you to the non-agenda portion

1:48:48 and you can come back up and you can read your book

1:48:51 at that time during the scheduled appropriate time

1:48:54 for your comment.

1:48:55 It’s not, we’re not stopping you.

1:48:56 It’s like, this is the agenda portion of the meeting

1:48:59 so that the board can get on with its business.

1:49:01 You’re free to come back at the non-agenda portion.

1:49:05 So I mean, I think that would be the appropriate way to go.

1:49:07 - Just move them to the end.

1:49:08 - Yeah, they would just go and we would just,

1:49:10 he would just put a note out on beside their name,

1:49:12 non-agenda and they would go to the end

1:49:14 of the non-agenda list.

1:49:16 - So also Paul, just so everybody understands,

1:49:19 we don’t have to pass the policy in order to do this.

1:49:22 If you remember when we moved to have this changed

1:49:25 from the last time, I can enact it at the next policy

1:49:29 at the next meeting.

1:49:30 If you guys would like me to move forward with that,

1:49:32 I can have Ms. Lena put that together

1:49:34 and we can move immediately forward with it.

1:49:37 - Well, one of us will need to bring a motion.

1:49:39 - Yes, I’m happy, you know.

1:49:40 - Yeah, at the beginning, I mentioned it,

1:49:42 then you guys bring the motion, then we vote on it,

1:49:44 then we move forward and we can go that route.

1:49:46 - Yeah, and because they’re gonna have to draft

1:49:49 like a new script, I mean, can you put that line in there?

1:49:54 - Yeah, we can make a, the way we did it before

1:49:56 was we put a little spot.

1:49:57 Is there a motion to split agenda?

1:50:00 - Oh no, I’m sorry.

1:50:01 Yeah, I’m sorry, Mr. Susan asked for that already.

1:50:03 I just meant like just another reference point

1:50:05 for Mr. Susan or whoever becomes the chair in November.

1:50:08 - If someone gets up there and reads–

1:50:10 - Just like, you know, when you panic in the moment,

1:50:12 you know, just so it’s right then and there,

1:50:14 so you say the right thing and so we don’t accidentally

1:50:16 stop them when that wasn’t the intention.

1:50:18 - Right. - Yeah.

1:50:19 - And then,

1:50:24 Mr. Broome, you got things from that end

1:50:27 as far as recording and, oh, do you have something

1:50:31 you wanna say?

1:50:34 - Yeah, are you able to answer about the timeline?

1:50:37 - Before I make a statement and a promise,

1:50:40 that’s not possible.

1:50:41 (muffled speaking)

1:50:43 - Yeah, I think it is important just to set expectations

1:50:46 for the board and the public.

1:50:48 Technically, it is not the same to record the public comment

1:50:54 as we do with the board meeting.

1:50:56 The board meeting obviously is on a broadcast channel

1:50:59 and that is live and then it’s played back

1:51:02 along with other meetings, so that will be fine.

1:51:05 Our YouTube channel where we also broadcast is a live

1:51:08 broadcast and so that, once that’s done,

1:51:10 that automatically generates the recorded clip.

1:51:14 In order to record public comment off camera

1:51:19 and during a meeting time, we would use a separate camera

1:51:23 and audio and we would then, after the meeting,

1:51:26 take that file and put an in and out point on it

1:51:30 and obviously no editing and upload it to YouTube

1:51:33 with proper language about what the content is

1:51:37 and that takes a little bit of time.

1:51:39 So if Dr. Rendell would direct me to have my staff do that

1:51:43 after the meeting on Tuesdays or Thursday nights,

1:51:46 we would do that, but it would not be instant.

1:51:48 It would be 30 minutes or so.

1:51:51 - So is it reasonable, though, to say within 24 hours?

1:51:55 - Yes, very much, yeah.

1:51:56 It could be the next morning, it would be better

1:51:59 for everybody’s mindset, but it could be that night

1:52:01 if it’s necessary.

1:52:02 - I don’t want Mike to have to stay an extra hour or two

1:52:04 to get it done the next day is fine.

1:52:07 - The other thing is is that we never used

1:52:09 to record it before.

1:52:10 So at the end, if somebody wanted to come

1:52:12 and give the testimony, you didn’t have to record it.

1:52:14 Like you, we just, that was it.

1:52:16 Like you come speak to us, we wouldn’t have to have Mike

1:52:19 making the recording and all of that stuff.

1:52:20 You don’t have to record non-agended items, that’s all.

1:52:23 - We have always since I’ve been on the board.

1:52:25 - I just, the reason I’m trying to be specific about it

1:52:29 and we don’t have to put an hour on it,

1:52:31 but the reason why I’m trying to make the conversation

1:52:32 specific is we are at a very fragile time

1:52:36 and sensitive time where people are always concerned

1:52:40 like when we lose live stream, they think it’s on purpose.

1:52:44 And so if we can err on the side of being as transparent

1:52:49 as physically possible, or at least when discussing it,

1:52:51 like our intention is to get it out within 24 hours.

1:52:54 I just, I think that’s important.

1:52:56 I don’t think that it needs to literally be a black

1:52:59 and white thing, but just so that as the public listening

1:53:02 to this conversation, they know the intention

1:53:04 is for it to be as soon as possible.

1:53:06 - Right, and if we didn’t want to write in policy,

1:53:08 it shall be, you know.

1:53:10 - Yeah, it would be pretty quick turnaround,

1:53:13 but it does take time.

1:53:14 It’s not as instantaneous as it is on our website,

1:53:17 which is an automated program as well, or it’s live,

1:53:20 so just technical issues there.

1:53:22 - Will you need like a one minute, you know?

1:53:25 - Probably be good to do a break.

1:53:26 - A retestion, yeah. - So we can switch

1:53:27 to cameras.

1:53:28 ‘Cause it would be a little bit distracting

1:53:30 to have the equipment up here during a meeting

1:53:34 for two hours or three hours, and then all of a sudden,

1:53:37 we use it finally.

1:53:38 So I wouldn’t want to do that to the city.

1:53:40 - And one thing, just for the, because you guys,

1:53:42 we changed the, when you guys got on the board,

1:53:45 but just to remind our, us and the new board members,

1:53:49 we will not be able to conduct any business after that.

1:53:52 Like the meeting will pretty much be officially done

1:53:55 when we make that switch.

1:53:57 And so we won’t, you know, it’ll just be listened

1:54:01 to the last handful of people, maybe direct them to staff,

1:54:04 and then we’re done.

1:54:06 - So you kind of answered my question.

1:54:07 I was about to ask, or refreshing my memory.

1:54:10 This happens after board discussion, correct?

1:54:14 So it’s like– - Well, that’s your decision.

1:54:16 I mean, we’ll accommodate anything we can

1:54:19 to the best of our ability.

1:54:20 - Okay, I was just curious, I don’t remember.

1:54:22 Yeah, we were done with like everything.

1:54:27 - Does anybody else have anything else

1:54:29 before the good of the order?

1:54:33 Hearing none, I wanted to mention you guys

1:54:34 that I’ll be asking law enforcement agencies

1:54:37 to review social media to see if anybody broke it

1:54:39 based upon our Vieira situation that we had,

1:54:42 where there was some people posting some stuff,

1:54:45 and anything else that should be good.

1:54:52 (upbeat music)

1:55:27 (silence)
