[David Murphy]: Thank you, Member Graham. Good evening, everyone. This is our fourth formal presentation of the developing FY23 Medford Public Schools operating budget for the committee and for members of the community that have been following along over the last four gatherings of the school committee in public session, four of the last five public sessions, I should say. We have been articulating the, in response to the feedback that we received from all members of the school administration, as well as members of the school committee, the funding priorities for fiscal year 23. And so in the last couple of times that we've met to discuss the budget, I've sort of tried to move quickly through some of the process elements as this, I imagine may well constitute the culmination of one phase of our budgeting process. I'm going to go through those process points a little more methodically tonight, We'll also try to move as efficiently as possible so that we can get to the decision making that it's my understanding and hope that the committee is positioned to make tonight. And with respect to exactly what those decisions are and what the objectives of tonight's meeting, I'll try to cover those up front. I'm going to share my screen. I did want to also say that As is always the case this time of year in a school district, there are lots of events and lots of things that are taking place. And so members of our team are sort of scattered tonight throughout various district community and school events. And so there may be times if I'm bouncing questions off of other team members that people would just need a second to get in a place where they can contribute. So we as a team appreciate the committee's indulgence in that respect. Okay, so tonight, we're going to go over the budget process and next steps. We're going to review our category system as everyone knows, throughout this we've had six budget categories that are not necessarily in a hierarchical order. But they, there's some overlap with and what the categories are really designed to do are help us to think through the strategic implications of the use of operating funds versus our one-time grant-related funding that is available specifically to the school district, which we refer to as our ESSER funding priorities. And then if the committee is prepared to, we would recommend that a vote be taken so that we can begin to actually construct the proposed budget, which will then be sent to the municipal government by way of the school committee's requests for FY23 operating funds. Much of this presentation, a lot of these slides are repetitive. And so for time purposes, I will try to, again, move as quickly as I can through them. But I do want to call attention to the second and third bullet points on this slide. Again, for people that have been watching each meeting, you've heard me say this before, but I don't think it can be stressed enough that one, when you are then the vast majority of the operating budget is for personnel expenses and the vast majority of the personnel are in collective bargaining units that have open CBAs. That results in a lot of budgetary uncertainty. And so everything we're doing, we have to keep in mind that variable with regard to where the contracts will ultimately settle and that will have an impact on our budgetary flexibility. The third bullet, and again, I think there were some great questions from members of the committee in earlier meetings as to sort of the underlying objectives of each of this process. And I think the sort of two pillars are one, to be as transparent as possible so that the Medford community understands how our budgetary priorities are tied to our strategic planning and our strategic thinking around how to move the district forward. And at the same time, we wanna make sure that as we develop these priorities, we're driving toward as coherent a budget as possible. There isn't anything that I think anyway that we've discussed over the course of these last four meetings that in a vacuum is not or at least does not sound like a good idea. And certainly I can tell you as each of the priorities that we've discussed from the various stakeholders who have contributed to this dialogue to a to a priority are meant to help students. And if there was a priority that was discussed at some point in our internal deliberations as an administration, if there wasn't a nexus between the priority and the potential impact it could have on student outcomes and student wellbeing, you as a committee and as a Medford community, I'd like to think we'll not hear about it, at least from us. But that means that our job though at this point is collecting those priorities together and making sure that we are, that they are complimentary to one another so that we can put together a coherent budget that advances our strategic goals and serve students well. So again, with regard to process, this is sort of the step-by-step process that in the slide that you've seen several times, particularly over the last, at least for the last two years, And I do think sometimes there's some confusion and I think it's been, there's been some healthy discussion about this piece of it on this committee and in this forum, which is that what exactly is the role of the school committee? Because oftentimes we talk about the three pillars of establishing policy, appointing a superintendent and approving a budget. And those pillars to some degree predate some of the more modern school governance laws in Massachusetts. And it's not the case that the school committee can determine what the revenue is or what the overall funding picture looks like. That's authority that rests within the municipal government and the school committee's responsibility is multifaceted. And it includes both advocating for the priorities and the needs of the district. And then ultimately adopting a budget that addresses those priorities and moves it forward based on the appropriation that is made from the municipal government. And you've heard me say several times that as a school administration, we have a dual responsibility, both to help flesh out those priorities and to make sure that the committee is fully informed as to how those priorities affect the operations of the school district, and also to be planning for any potential contingency so that we're able to operate the school district and move our strategic objectives forward based on whatever appropriation is there. But I think as many school districts learn, if we don't have a clear articulation of those priorities and the impact that those priorities can have, it would be unreasonable for a school department or a school committee to expect that appropriation to be consistent with the work that needs to be done. And so I think that's a big part of these forums and the public discussions we've had, and you've been able to hear from the administration and various members of the administration as to both the positive impact some of these funding priorities can have, and also how some pieces make more sense at certain times or within a certain sequence, and how things can complement one another. And then, as you know, there are some things, and particularly this is true for some of the priorities listed in category E, that, as I said before, in a vacuum would be very good and might be very good regardless. but might not fit into our current picture based on the anticipated capacity that we have. So that's where we are with regard to process. I imagine that could come up at some point during our discussion tonight and be happy to discuss that in greater detail at that time. This is their school funding 101 slide that as again, people that have followed along know, we're a largely local contribution funded school district. Um, that means that 80%, approximately 80% of our operating budget comes from the taxpayers of the city of Medford. Um, and about 20% or so comes from the taxpayers of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts across all the cities and towns in the state. And, uh, that we refer to as our chapter 70 funding. And then there is our external funding, um, that comes in the way of, uh, grant funding. Now, uh, we have more grant funding now than I imagine we've ever had. Uh, that that's true for most. school districts in light of the pandemic. But much of that grant funding is one-time funding. And that's when we get into some of the strategic thought processes that we need to engage in with regards to not committing or trying to avoid as best as possible, avoiding the commitment of one-time funds to recurring expenses. So on May 2nd, We discussed as part of our budgeting process where we are with respect to our collective bargaining negotiations. Our current budget is approximately $55 million out of 67.4 is devoted to personnel expenses and the vast, vast majority of our employees are part of our 10 bargaining units, nine of which have open CBAs and most of which we are currently in negotiations with. The only exceptions to that are units represented by other bargaining agents that we are at the table with. And it would be my expectation that when those negotiations reach an endpoint, we'll be finishing the negotiation, or we will begin and hopefully in short order negotiate successor agreements to the remaining units. We've said that one of our priorities, both from a budgeting perspective and from a collective bargaining perspective, is to maintain wage increases that are are both competitive and sustainable. That means we want them to be competitive enough where it's a place that we can recruit and retain the top teaching and educator talent in the state. And at the same time, it has to be sustainable because we can't commit resources that are too speculative and then have a situation in which we have a structural financial deficit that will inevitably have a disproportionate impact on our high need and most vulnerable student populations. And that really has to be a guiding pillar, both in our discussions in this forum, as well as at the bargaining table. The nature of school districts is that they are structured in a way that if we do not maintain sound fiscal stewardship, it will result in the staff positions that exist to help students who need the most support. those positions won't exist if we don't have that structural deficit. There are certain positions that we know we're always going to have as a school district. We're going to have classroom teachers, we're going to have principals, we're going to have some administrator roles that are necessities, and some of them are legal necessities, others are practical necessities. And so while there are always choices that a city and a school district can make, those choices are not unlimited. And that is why, well, most of us would prefer to focus our attention on establishing competitive wage increases so that we can make sure that students at Medford have the most talented and the most diverse staff that we can possibly put in front of them. At the same time, if we don't pay appropriate respect to the sustainability priority, we will end up in a situation in which our staffing structure is not commensurate with the needs of our students. And that is why that is a drum that you'll hear us continue to beat in this and other forums. And it's why that while most of us who work in education would like from a societal perspective education to be prioritized in a way where there aren't as many boundaries as we may find time to time, we have a responsibility to operate within the realm of reality and that will be the case going forward. So I said that our budgeting priorities have been cultivated over the course of the last several months and these are slides that again you've seen before but generally they fit into certain buckets around the critical priorities that we know are most urgent as a result of with how and where our students are currently situated coming out of the pandemic, hopefully coming completely out of the pandemic. There are personnel needs that we've talked about and the varying degrees of priority, but our budget is mostly personnel. And so when we talk about any budget, whether it's regardless of the nature of the funding, right, personnel is always gonna be a large component of it. Here's some other priorities, technology again, always going to be a cornerstone. Our professional learning is something that is emphasized within our strategic plan and keeping equity and student support at the center of all our decision making has been a guiding pillar throughout the superintendent's strategic planning process, as well as this process that we've engaged in over the last several weeks. Okay, so from fixed cost perspective, this is something that, again, for those that have watched every The ins and outs of every meeting, it's a little dry, it might get a little boring, but it's important to note that we're coming out of FY22 with a $67.4 million operating budget. It is the case, as it is always every year, that there are pre-existing obligations that we have or unavoidable realities that exist that result in what we generally refer to as our fixed cost increases. So these are the increases that even if there was no strategic thinking and no strategic decision making, these elements of our budget are going up in cost, meaning to maintain just a level services operation within the Medford Public Schools, there would be approximately $2.6 million increase to the budget. That includes as the sort of the headline number, the biggest number there, the $1.3 million that is represented in salary increases that are owed in FY22 as a result of existing contractual obligations. So that is separate and aside from anything that is done at the bargaining table and potential cost of living adjustments that we've said are a priority for us going into FY23. But that $1.3 million is just the natural growth. When I say natural growth, it is the steps, lanes, and other contractual obligations that will hit the budget in FY23. The highlighted numbers there, the subscription and contractual renewal piece, the special education fixed cost increase, and the math curriculum piece. Those are numbers that, as I've mentioned before, there is, to some degree, this is true for any of these numbers. All of these numbers, and this is true for every single number in your presentation, there could be some fluidity between now and as the budget is implemented. These three numbers are the ones that we're looking most closely at right now. to see if there is any way of essentially reducing those costs. There's no strategic thinking at the moment behind these costs. These are costs that have already been adopted previously within the school district. And so by restraining these costs and reducing them where possible, it gives us the potential for having greater flexibility and hopefully provides the municipal government greater flexibility as well. Right now we would still estimate that to be 2.6 but there is the prospect for those to be reduced as time goes on. Again, that slide you've seen before this is just the various structures of the budget that sort of specific piece that is different in FY 20, it has been different the last couple of fiscal years will be different for the next few fiscal years then. the way the operating budgets have run in school districts previously is we continue to have a significant injection of federal funding in response to the pandemic. So a lot of times there's confusion between the ARPA funding and the ESSER funding. ARPA funding, first of all, there's a significant amount of regulatory distinction between the two, but the ARPA funding of which our budget was funded through, a significant portion was funded through last year, That is the municipal government's COVID funds, essentially, coming from the federal government, with, again, significant restrictions and criteria around how that money can be appropriated. The ESSER funding is funding that is allocated through the Department of Education, of Elementary and Secondary Education at the state level here in Massachusetts. And so we anticipate that our ESSER funding expenditures for FY22 will be in the vicinity of a million to $1.4 million. You've heard multiple presentations as to some of the initiatives that we've been able to undertake as a result of that funding. That leaves us with approximately $6.2 million over the next three fiscal years. And so, again, we've talked a lot about this, but in thinking about the ESSER funding, there's sort of a few elements that we should think about. One, first and foremost, understanding that it's one-time funding. And so to the extent that we can avoid the creation of fiscal cliffs by using that funding toward either one time or temporary or fleeting expenses, that would be considered more prudent. At the same time, the most important criteria is that there is a nexus between this funding and the financial resources that are available and our efforts to combat and come out of the pandemic and to minimize the educational disruption that our students have experienced. And so as a result of that nexus, sometimes the things that we need to help our students recover from the pandemic are the most urgent priorities that we have. And that does at times mean that we need to essentially suspend the guiding principle that I just referenced a moment ago around trying to avoid committing one-time funds to recurring expenses. And you saw some of that last year in our FY22 budget, and that'll be true in the FY23 budget as well. And I think the way to think about that is if we're going to put it toward things like personnel expenses, which as you know, in category B, that's our recommendation in part, we should be putting them toward personnel expenses that either we will, that the need will dissipate to some degree as we get further away from the pandemic, or towards something in which we use the next couple of years to determine the extent to which it is a priority to absorb those priorities in our operating budget. And particularly with the ARPA funding, the rationale is hopefully you see the revenue landscape, at least as it was projected in FY22, improves to the point where there's the capacity to do that. At a state level, there's encouraging news about that at the moment, but with respect to revenues, and that's where you see the $1.6 million increase in Chapter 70 funding. I've mentioned before the sort of double-edged sword that we get into with that because our budget, as I mentioned a few minutes ago, is only 20% Chapter 70 funding, approximately 20%. And so there's only a proportional impact that is felt there, at least with regard to the state level. And then obviously the economic forecasts you know, we're not here to do economic forecasting, but for those of you that follow economic forecasting, it's not a particularly, there are not a lot of positive forecasts currently to be found with regards to the potential for a recession and the possibility of the erosion of revenue. So all of that is to say that these are the various components of our budget, some of which are specific to this COVID or hopefully soon to be post-COVID context. OK, so this slide is sort of just meant to indicate how the budget grows. As I said, we start at $67.4 million. If you factor in the fixed cost increases, you get to approximately $70 million. And then to address the priority around sustainable but competitive wage increases, that is estimated to be approximately $1.1 million. And so that's how we get to the $71.1 million figure. prior to addressing any of the strategic priorities that we'll discuss tonight in those categories. I've already mentioned that the hope is that we're still able to restrain to some degree the fixed cost increases that could give us some flexibility and or allow us to address priorities in the event of a Delta between what the school committee requests and what the municipal government can appropriate. And as I've said, as a school administration, we know that we have a dual responsibility both to articulate the priorities and to prepare for any eventuality to make sure that we implement the operating budget in a way that serves students well. This is how we're currently organized. All of these boxes represent personnel, and as I said, we, like every school district, are primarily a personnel-driven organization. So we get to our categories now. This is A through F. It's not a strict hierarchy from a priority perspective, but there's overlap. And again, strategic considerations to the operating budget versus the use of ESSER funding. This spells out a few priorities. And as we get to the end of the slides here, it'll spell it out in greater clarity. But essentially, these are the sort of the total numbers that we would be looking at depending on which of the categories are pursued. They don't go in ascending order here as you look left to right. So in retrospect, that could have been a little clearer, but there's a slide that says this exact same information at the end, but in a more clear fashion. So if you can hang tight for a minute, we'll get to that part. Again, our priorities here, category A are things that, from the school administration's perspective, are things that we have to do and we're prepared to do. but the most appropriate funding source is the operating budget. Category B are things that we also feel that we need to do, but because of the nature of the priority that would be pursuing, we would consider it to be ESSER appropriate in the event of the appropriation is not sufficient to absorb those priorities. Category C are things that we would strongly recommend stay within ESSER, and it would sort of, essentially, it would be a waste of the ESSER funds to not use toward those priorities in category C. Category D, very similar to category A, but the piece that doesn't apply there is what I said about it being hierarchical in a sense. The A and D are hierarchical in that A is considered the highest priorities. I would imagine, well, I know we've discussed this a lot over the last several weeks. In the event that we wanna discuss category D tonight in terms of what will ultimately make it into the request, and again, based on this sequence, once an appropriation is made or a recommended appropriation is identified, we're gonna have more time to sift through those and sort of make sure that we are putting together the most coherent budgetary picture possible. But just for purposes of tonight, I have divided category D up into D1, D2, and D3. And when we get to the category D, I'll explain a little bit how some of that works. It's not necessarily just one is more important than the other. but some of the pieces, as you know, if you've looked through and read through the category D priorities, are priorities that some of them are one-time expenses that we may be able to think about using one-time funds for, and others are just recurring expenses that if the needs of the district were different, or if the budgetary priorities were gonna fit in connection with one another differently, it would likely be that we would, that they could be moved into category A. but sometimes it's because of, for compliance purposes, sometimes because of the more urgent needs of students, whatever the case may be, that oftentimes is what will determine the categorization between a D and A. Category E are things that we've, this sort of speaks to the transparency piece that we want to be really open with the community about the things that we think the district needs, but they're not necessarily the things that we would recommend are included in this budget, either at this stage or at a later stage. That can change, and some things like this will change throughout the course of the fiscal year, but right now they wouldn't be at the top of the administration's recommendations. In category F, there's only one item, one that we've discussed a couple of times, and that we're in the process of preparing for further discussion with regard to trying to eliminate the burden of fee-based services, in this case, specifically school lunch and meals. These are the numbers, if we just take those priorities that are in those categories. Again, you'll see some fluctuation from the last time sometimes that there have been times and there's a personnel position that was identified late in the process that push the category D number up a bit. It's not something that would go into category A and I'll just use this as an example right now. So there's, there's a position and we think there's a need and we think that kids would be well served. But we also know that one way or another, there's going to be a limited capacity. And so, while it's, we will reference it tonight, we are actively exploring different staffing configurations that could eliminate the need for the newly funded position and again, That is just part of the fluidity of a $67 to $70 million budget. And it's just part of the work that we do day in and day out to manage the district. So again, we'll get back to this slide toward the end. But these are the overall numbers, depending on which of the categories the committee were to adopt in its request, assuming you want to vote this evening. And so just so everyone understands what would happen next in terms of the process, If once you've identified for the administration that you'd like to pursue one of these options or potentially a combination thereof, we will then go back and we will actually compile the sort of the concrete part of this, which is frequently referred to as the budget book. We've discussed previously that the budget book when you've got nine open CBAs has, I think, a slightly different degree of value with respect to accuracy if we were to publish it right now. it would essentially list out your FY 21 salaries for most positions because those those contracts are open, but at the same time. To make sure that you understand how the various pieces pieces fit together in leading up to some of the sizable numbers that you see here that's what that's the direction that we would go subsequent to this presumably subsequent to this meeting. I did see a hand there, Ms. Graham. I don't know if you want me to pause for a second or if you want me to keep moving and then take questions at the end. I'm guessing we've got 10 minutes left, but I'd be more than happy to take a breath if you'd like.

[Jenny Graham]: Manm Ruseau, ou vle poze yon kesyon oswa kesyon ou an kounye a?

[Paul Ruseau]: Kesyon mwen an se konbyen glisad? Nan yon lòt 10 minit, mwen ka rete tann.

[David Murphy]: Gen kèk glisad nouvo, men se jis paske yo te analize tout bagay sa yo pou li te pran yo kèk jou Mwen jis vle kouri asire w ke tout moun sonje sa ki B, ki sa ki c, elatriye.

[Paul Ruseau]: Ekselan.

[Unidentified]: Mwen vle fè yon espò, tou, men mwen pral rete tann jouk ou fini. sètènman. Lè sa a, kontinye.

[David Murphy]: Ok, sa a se kategori A. ankò, li bay lis priyorite yo paske yo la. Mwen pa konnen ki jan ki kote enfimyè Curtis Tufts te premye fwa mwen te vini. Men, nan bouyon mwen an, li pa t '. Se poutèt sa, valè total final la kòrèk, men kounye a, ap resevwa 1.0 enfimyè nan gwoup la pral konsidere kòm klas A. Ankò, klas B, sa a se yon gwo bagay ki gen nan bidjè a opere, men nou yo pare yo sèvi ak finansman Esser a ak panse finansman Esser a ki apwopriye yo. Ankò, sa yo pa anpil, ni yo se eleman ki koresponn. Li evidan, lajan an gen yon enpak ki ba. Sa yo se bagay nou rekòmande kolekte bidjè a Esser nan FY23. Mwen dwe di si ou sonje ane pase a nou te gen bidjè a opere plen ak prezante priyorite Esser a nan fen mwa jen. Malgre ke nou toujou te konnen ta gen, nou te konnen te gen eleman nou te panse yo ta peyi sou bidjè Esser la. Diferans lan ane sa a se ti Nou abitye avèk estanda Esser epi yo kalifye. Depi ane pase, pa te gen okenn lajan sou pòt la ak nouvo lajan ki disponib nan pòt la chak kèk semèn. Lè sa a, nou gen li kounye a. Yo pa bezwen li, epi yo pa nesesèman yon pati nan yon demann nan lavil la, paske finansman Ethel a se finansman nan komite lekòl la ak finansman an pataje. Pati nan ki se yon kontinyasyon nan montre nan nou te fè ane pase a. Ane pase a, nou te planifye pou depanse $ 2 milyon e te fini depans, e nou ta fini depanse apeprè $ 1.4 milyon dola, ki nou panse, se menm mwens. Yon pati nan sa a se ke pandan ke pa gen anpil nouvo lajan nan pòt la chak kèk semèn tankou kè pandemi an, gen anpil opòtinite pou finanse sibvansyon nan dezi ak lòt sous finansman. Pafwa ak Esser Soti nan ane a fiskal 25, nou itilize sa yo fon sibvansyon lè sa a se plis tan-sansib. Se konsa, sa a, se yon pati nan rezon ki fè nou mete tèt nou anba bidjè Esser la ane sa a, ak franchman, nou ta ka rete tann ak atann li yo dwe rezon ki fè yo pou ane pwochèn. Sa a se klas D. Mwen panse ke mwen te eksplike sa a, men ak konsiderasyon kategori yo D1, D2 ak D3 mwen pral eseye pou avanse pou li nan fen a isit la. Kategori D, nan yon pati kòmantè nan kòmantè komite a, nimewo sa a te ogmante siyifikativman. Kounye a, sa a se yon $ 850,000. Gouvènman lekòl la pa vle komite lekòl la mande pou yon bagay nou pa pare pou aplike. Se responsablite nou yo konprann ke nou se yon pati entegral nan lavil la, priyorite yo konpetitif ke lavil la dwe ogmante. Se konsa, sa nou dwe fè isit la se eksplike sa a. Youn nan yo se nan klas lajè C, kèk rezon yo se ke pou plizyè rezon yo pral pi wo priyorite. Men, lòt pati a se ke gen kèk priyorite isit la Nou ka jwenn lòt sous finansman pou nou ka ogmante priyorite sa yo san yo pa swe fon yo bidjè opere nou dwe fè sa. Yon egzanp ta ka yon CTE anrejistre pozisyon finanse nan pwogram nan. Pi enpòtan, sèten consommables ak depans yo imedyatman ki gen rapò. Plus, anjeneral nou gen yon bidjè de gwosè chak ane, epi nou tout vle fini ane sa a fiskal ak yon sèten degre nan zòrye. Nou ap konnen yo pa fini nan wouj, se konsa dwe gen yon sèten nivo nan zòrye, epi anjeneral nou vle touche dè santèn de milye de dola. Lè nou rive Kounye a, nou ap konjelasyon kèk nan frè yo asire nou yo kapab ranpli ane a ak espere ranpli kontra a. Men, si gen yon sipli, nou pral fini, tankou CTE pwogramasyon pwovizyon oswa founiti Robotics oswa pwojektè, si sa nesesè, nan ane fiskal 23, si gen yon fason yo lis sa nou ta dwe fè nan ane fiskal la. Prepare pou fè sa. Klas E, mwen panse ke tout moun konnen ki kote li ye. Sa yo se bagay kominote a ta dwe konnen, komite a ta dwe konnen, men sa se pa konsèy la nou pral swiv kounye a. Epi ou konnen plan manje midi a, nou diskite ak atann plis konvèsasyon sou sa. Sa yo se siyati nou yo ak tribin nan renouvèlman, otreman nou dwe renouvle tèt nou. Pifò nan yo tou satisfè dè santèn de estime depans fiks de $ 35,000. Sa a se nimewo a nou analize nan negosyasyon pasyèl ak kèk nan sa yo fournisseurs ak pwobableman pa idantifye tribin ki gen potansyèl la sòti sèvis la. Sa a se youn nan fason nou eseye pou minimize nimewo sa a. Sa yo refere sèlman nan varyab yo ak lajan likid sikile pou chak bidjè.

[Unidentified]: Mwen panse ke sa a se glise nan dènye. Repete sa mwen te di ou, se konsa mwen pa pral.

[Jenny Graham]: Mesye Murphy, ou ka tounen nan klas D nan premye glise a? Mwen panse ke w ap aksepte li trè vit sou li. Ok Mwen jis te vle asire w ke tout moun gen yon chans wè sa.

[Unidentified]: eseye.

[Jenny Graham]: Ok, mèsi, diskou Mesye Murphy a. Èske gen nenpòt pwoblèm sou planche a? Si ou jis vle ogmante men ou, nou ka deplase fason sa a. Manm Russo?

[Paul Ruseau]: Mèsi. Kòm nou te wè plizyè fwa, fè egzèsis la mwen vle fè ak mete l 'nan konvèsasyon an. Men, mwen vle transfere demann yo nou te voye soti nan A, B ak D bay gouvènman an minisipal pou yon sòm de $ 72.4 milyon dola. Anplis de sa, si Massachusetts pa finanse manje lekòl yo paske yo kounye a kwè zòn nan ap kontinye ofri manje gratis epi yo pral voye demann bay gouvènman an minisipal yo jwenn lajan adisyonèl yo kouvri pri a nan kontinye politik manje gratis nou an.

[Jenny Graham]: Èske ou vle mete l 'nan yon chat?

[David Murphy]: Mwen te fè li, wi. Madam, mwen gen yon sèl kesyon oswa yon kòmantè Enstriktif. Graham. sètènman.

[Melanie McLaughlin]: Mwen gen enfòmasyon, tou. Ou ka mete sa a glise nan pake a ankò, ou konnen chak glise? Mèsi.

[David Murphy]: Li te fè ak pwen kote mwen pa t 'egzekite li byen vit lè mwen te pare.

[Jenny Graham]: Mesye Murphy, ou ka kontinye ale.

[David Murphy]: Se konsa, li jis vle di ke li se yon demann $ 72.4 milyon dola kòm yon pati nan mouvman an lous. Kòm nou kontinye travay sou depans sa yo fiks, elatriye, elatriye, nimewo aktyèl sa a ka pi ba. Li ka pi wo nan teyori, men nou pral bati li pou fè pou evite li. Se konsa, ou pral eksplike ki jan mouvman an se Nou mete kanpe pwopozisyon bidjè ki baze sou ki gen ladan tout priyorite sa yo. Men, si li vire soti yo dwe yon nimewo diferan, li pa pral konsistan avèk entansyon an nan mouvman an. Komite lekòl la idantifye priyorite yo ke gouvènman an ta ogmante. Sa a se yon demann. Si li se 71.8 olye pou yo 72.4, li toujou gen menm efè legal la. Mesye Rizzo, se yon eksplikasyon ki jis?

[Paul Ruseau]: Mwen devine li depann de ki jan nimewo yo tonbe.

[David Murphy]: sètènman. Si li se 69.9, mwen panse ke li se 69.9, epi nou pral rele tèt nou ankò semèn pwochèn epi yo gen yon chans wè E.

[Paul Ruseau]: Se pa sa mwen vle di. Mwen vle di paske ou ap fè analiz ak jwenn fason pou konsève pou lajan, mwen byen ak nimewo ki pi piti a. Si sa rive paske ou gen yon konvèsasyon - ak yon lòt moun epi deside pou avanse pou pi bagay sa yo nan do Esser a, pa app a, mwen pa dakò.

[David Murphy]: konprann. Mwen panse ke sa nou pral fè se menm jan ak sa nou te fè ane pase a, pou li retounen nan komite a nan mwa jen ak eksprime sa Priyorite nou nan etap sa a se finansman pi bonè Esser la. Ou ka Lè sa a, wè de bilding finansman. Èske sa fè sans?

[Paul Ruseau]: Li fè anpil sans pou mwen.

[David Murphy]: Wi. Mèsi. Mwen vle pale sou ki jan nou fè sa a yo idantifye ekonomi pou nou pa jwenn an kontak ak ou nan gwo kantite ak Lè sa a, nou te pran ralonj la ak redwi nimewo yo. Men, si se konsa, mwen ka anfòm li nan kou akòz, men mwen jis vle asire w ke ou vini ak sa a pita.

[Jenny Graham]: Mèsi, Mesye Murphy. Manm McLaughlin.

[Melanie McLaughlin]: Mèsi. Si sa posib, mwen ta renmen klarifye nan mouvman manm Russo a. Se konsa, si mwen konprann kòrèkteman, ak manm Ruseau a A, B ak D kategori A, B ak D kategori, sa a, se paske li pa gen ladan C akòz aspè finansman li yo. Èske sa nesesè?

[Paul Ruseau]: Sa a dwat.

[Melanie McLaughlin]: Ok Se sa mwen panse. Ok Abd, Lè sa a, konsiderasyon an fò nan 73, kat yo pa te konsidere kòm nan ABD. Se konsa, mwen panse mwen ta mande si nou ka ale tounen nan yon paj konsiderasyon fò, si kòlèg mwen mande m ', mwen vle fè sa. Mèsi.

[David Murphy]: Si sa posib, madam. McLaughlin oswa Madam. Graham, isit la gen kèk posts, mwen panse ke li ta itil si mwen eksplike poukisa yo nan kategori ak yo itil. Wi, tanpri. sètènman. Se poutèt sa, an patikilye, gen de liy ki pi ba, sètadi administratè a OFI ak Rejis la. Sa yo se de pozisyon administratif ke rejyon an reyèlman benefisye. Nan kèk pwen, lè nou detèmine kapasite nou yo, mwen panse ke yo se objektif yo nou pral pouswiv. Sepandan, kounye a, akòz ensèten nan kapasite nou an, tou de nan aspè yo iben ak rejyonal yo, an pati rezon ki fè yo pou rediksyon an soti nan priyorite yo se Kontrèman ak kèk pozisyon ansèyman, gen mwens priyorite pou wòl sa yo nan moman sa a. Si nan peryòd mitan-fiskal la, nou idantifye kapasite a oswa demann ak dinamik nan rejyon an nan fason nou di, sa a se yon bagay nou ta dwe reyèlman swiv kounye a. Yo dwe onèt, sa a se sitou yon pakèt moun sou opinyon. Ak sik la nou dwe Li diferan, kidonk, ou konnen, nou ka kouri dèyè li nan diferan moman. Nan menm liy lan, teknoloji medya te antre nan kategori a akòz priyorite yo nan anplwaye CTE, pandan y ap metal Fabs tonbe nan klas D. Okenn nan pwosedi yo se pi konplike nan moman sa a, paske jan mwen te di, gen yon lòt sous potansyèl nan finansman ki gen rapò ak D, epi nou ka espere kontinye la. Se poutèt sa, nou ka separe ak depase bidjè a opere. Men, si li pa deklare ke sa a se yon dosye sou bezwen klè, nou dwe fè li touswit, ki se sa ki kenbe li nan pouswiv swen sante. Men, yon lòt moso ki fè distenksyon metal la zouti teknoloji medya se ke gen yon eleman sekirite nan moso nan metal fantastik ke nou pèsekite si li nesesè yo dwe sekirite enpòtan tout kote bidjè a se evidamman. Sepandan, varyab sa a ede distenge ant de pwogram yo nan moman sa a. Konsènan atik enskripsyon retrèt, sa a se bi wòl sa a, mwen pa panse ke nou vrèman diskite li nan premye reyinyon bidjè a, mwen pa sonje. Men, lide a ta dwe ke nou ka gen plis pozisyon MOVA, MOVA, enskri elèv yo ak ale nan lekòl pi vit, netwaye yo epi asire yo ke yo gen yon ekip medikal ki kalifye, analize dosye ak travay ak fanmi yo, se konsa nou bezwen yo enskri. Sa a se kritik. Sa a se pa nesesèman yon pozisyon enpòtan. Resanblans ak sa mwen te di anvan sou pozisyon nan kategori ki pa te egziste anvan, nou ap eksplore lòt fason yo fè yo travay pi plis efikasite. Pa gen okenn bezwen bay yon lòt ETI konplè pou sa a ak manje ak kapasite limite. Sou mwen, mwen panse mwen pral ale nan tout moun paske si ou pa pran swen, mwen sèlman gen de. Se pozisyon syantifik la ki baze sou tandans nan enskripsyon, ki nou panse ki nesesè, men dapre Depatman Syans ak Administrasyon Lekòl Segondè, ane sa a pa obligatwa, men li se yon bagay nou vle asire w ke nou kontinye gen yon pakèt domèn pwogram ochwa pou ke nou ka kontinye gen nan yon pakèt domèn kou ochwa. Nou vle bay li nan elèv lekòl segondè nou yo. Konsènan pwogram nan bibliyotèk, sa a se plan an nou te antre nan ak te vin franchman. Mwen konnen komite a te diskite sa a isit la. Sa a se yon bagay nou vle devlope kou a ak asire w ke lè nou envesti nan moun sa a, nou gen pwogramasyon an ak estrikti nan kou a, epi nou bezwen fè envestisman nan men anplwaye nou yo maksimize envestisman yo. Se konsa, sa a se yon trè, trè wo rezime kout nan bon lide ak benefis bon pou timoun nan. Li rive nan kategori, pa nan kategori D. Mèsi Mesye Murphy.

[Jenny Graham]: Mèsi. Manm Kreatz?

[Kathy Kreatz]: Wi, li te gen kesyon menm jan an sou kategori a, ki moun ki reponn kesyon sou ekip la. Mwen gen yon lòt kesyon paske mwen te ekri li, ou trè vit sou li, se konsa mwen te ekri li Pi gwo priyorite a se klas A. Petèt mwen te ekri li byen. Lè sa a, C se definitivman sa a. Se konsa, mwen panse mwen bezwen kèk klarifikasyon sou kategori B, ki se yon pati nan mouvman Mesye Russo a. Menm a se vre pou klas B, sa se li Esser rekòmande a pa pral konfonn nan Esser la nan pi wo priyorite Esser la, tankou poukisa C-te dirije? Poukisa nou gen Esser ak tout kondisyon priyorite yo, pa klas B? Mwen panse ke mwen konfonn sou li.

[David Murphy]: Mèsi. Sa a se yon kesyon trè, trè bon. Se konsa, mwen vrèman rekonesan. Mwen regrèt mwen Fwa sa a, mwen trè byento. Mwen vle fè sa paske li se yon pwen trè enpòtan e mwen panse kesyon ou ede ilistre li. Se konsa, kategori B, mwen pral deplase trè vit, twa anplwaye yo ki gen rapò ak anplwaye a, OK? Yo ap ajiste konseye yo, filtè pwofesè yo nan pwogram aprantisaj angle nou an, ak enfimyè nan tout rejyon an. Si gen yon bezwen kontinyèl pataje, sa a ede sipòte sèvis sante nou yo, oke? Depi yo se priyorite pèsonèl, nou pito opere bidjè yo gen kapasite nan absòbe priyorite sa yo. Sa a ka a nan yon mond pafè. Men, de bagay yo kòrèk. Youn, nou pa rete nan yon mond pafè, E nou konnen ke pral gen sèten restriksyon chak fwa ak tout kote nou yo, ki pral limite kapasite bidjè nou an. Ok Dezyèm bagay la se ke nou bezwen fè bagay sa yo de tout fason akòz enpak la nan pandemi an sou elèv nou yo. Se konsa, byenke li kapab, nou gen tandans sèvi ak kapasite finansman san konte nan ESS. Pou depans finansman san konte sèlman. Nan ka sa a, ijans nan demann ak koneksyon an pandemi te fè nou nan yon plas kote nou ta sèvi ak finansman Esser a si kapasite a pa te egziste. Se poutèt sa, diferans ki genyen ant B ak C Jis, nan C, nou te di komite a ke nou reyèlman pa vle sèvi ak bidjè a opere. Sa yo se frè ki asosye ak yon sèl-fwa. Pandemik la gen yon koneksyon fò. Ak echèl finansye yo se pafè pou priyorite nou yo ak bidjè jeneral Esser la. Konsènan kategori B, si bidjè a opere ka absòbe yo, se sa ki nou itilize. Ki sa nou ap di se: franchman, nou pa kwè ke kapasite egziste. E nou konnen nou toujou gen pou fè sa. Se konsa, sa a se fason nou di li, esansyèlman, si gen oswa pa gen fè fas ak sa a $ 560,000, sa a ta dwe priyorite Esser nou an. Sa a se pa yon itilizasyon apwopriye nan fon Esser, paske gen yon koneksyon fò ant bagay sa yo ak pandemi an. Mwen pa gen yon boul an vè, e se sa youn nan administratè ki responsab pou ede nou detèmine priyorite sa yo te di, e nèg sa a bon, nou pa genyen li. Gen yon pwen kote mwen vle di yon pwobabilite, men omwen yon pwen kote ijans nan priyorite finansman sa yo pral disparèt lè nou kite pandemi an. Nou konnen ke kòm elèv yo retounen nan anviwònman lekòl la, nou bezwen li kounye a, tou depann de tandans nan enskripsyon, ki te ogmante siyifikativman ki baze sou tandans nan nou te wè nan tèm dijital ane sa a. Nou konnen nou bezwen tèm sa a kat-pozisyon ane pwochèn. Nan pwogram ki fenk fèt la. Nou konnen nou pral bezwen li nan 22nd ane lekòl la pou ane lekòl la 23rd. Sepandan, nou ka pa bezwen pozisyon sa yo nan lekòl 23, 24, oswa 24, 25. Se konsa, Esser ban nou kapasite nan fè sa, epi yo ka finanse pozisyon sa yo jan sa nesesè. Lè sa a, youn nan de bagay sa yo pral rive. Bezwen an pa pral egziste paske nan yon pwen de vi ansèyman, nou pa pral nesesè oswa nesesè. Lè sa a, li pral koresponn ak rejyon an Pou jwenn finansman nan bidjè opere ou, kontinye pwogram elèv yo bezwen. Se konsa, sa a se ki kalite tan ki sansib a tan, ijans ak koneksyon li nan pandemi an. Finalman, diferans reyèl la se ke nan kou, si nou ka fè sa nan operasyon, nou pral fè li. Men, nou ap fè televizyon montre nan komite a ak kominote a, epi si kapasite sa a pa egziste, li se yon finansman nou gen resort nan Esser. Sa a itil?

[Kathy Kreatz]: Wi, sa trè itil. Lè sa a, mwen jis te vle remake ke mwen te gen yon konvèsasyon semèn pase a ak depite yo Donato eta a, ki moun ki te di m 'ki kay la te vote yo pase apwobasyon an nan $ 110 milyon dola nan bidjè a manje midi pou tout elèv yo. Se konsa, li te ale nan Sena a, prezimableman Sena a ak gouvènè yo apwouve l '. Se konsa, ou konnen, mwen reyèlman espere sa a pral rive, men mwen dakò ak lang sa a ak Mesye Ris Ou konnen, si se pa apwouve, nou pral fè yon mosyon pou konplete fon an, men mwen vrèman espere ke li pral rive.

[David Murphy]: Y Solo te ajoute ke La Señorita Kreatz kwè ke ekipman pou moun ki gen èksedan se yon pati enpòtan nan ajanda lejislatif la, Yuestra administrasyon pa gen okenn vwa adaptasyon ak efikasite, ki se pa kontrebann ankò epi yo pa egziste ankò. Nou kwè sa a se tou pi bon chwa pou kominote Medford la. Se konsa, nenpòt moun ki gen zanmi nan Sena a epi nou mande ou yo ekri kat sa yo epi fè apèl sa yo paske mwen kwè eta a ak gouvènman federal yo se kote ki apwopriye yo rezoud pwoblèm yo, yo se antite ak kapasite nan fè sa, e mwen ta ka di responsablite a pou fè sa.

[Jenny Graham]: Mèsi.

[Mea Quinn Mustone]: Manm McGill? Mwen vle dezyèm manm Russo a pou yo avanse nan A, B ak D.

[Jenny Graham]: Dapre mouvman tè a ki te sipòte pa manm yo Ruseau nan manm Musotenum, nou te voye demann soti nan A, B ak D bay gouvènman an minisipal pou yon sòm de $ 72.4 milyon dola. Anplis de sa, si Massachusetts pa finanse manje lekòl yo paske yo kounye a kwè zòn nan ap kontinye ofri manje gratis epi voye demann bay gouvènman minisipal la pou jwenn plis lajan pou kouvri pri pou kontinye politik manje gratis nou an. Èske gen nenpòt lòt pwoblèm ak komite a atletik oswa pil?

[Unidentified]: Èske nou pare pou poze kesyon? Ok Manm Rossell, ou ta rele vol la? Dezyèm. Manm Graham. Wi. Manm Hayes. Wi.

[Paul Ruseau]: Manm Kreatz. Sim. Manm McLaughlin.

[Unidentified]: eseye.

[Paul Ruseau]: Yon manm esansyèl. Wi. Manm Rusaau. Wi. Alcalde Lungo-Koehn, absan.

[Jenny Graham]: Mèsi. Sis solanèl ak yon sèl absan. Mouvman an pase. Manm McLaughlin.

[Melanie McLaughlin]: Mwen jis vle felisite tout moun sou pwosesis sa a ak remèsye Mesye Murphy pou tout travay di l 'yo, asanble ak diskou ak pou tout opòtinite yo demontre nouvo pwosesis la. Mwen konnen sa difisil pou tout moun, men gras a tout moun, travay di tout moun.

[David Murphy]: Mèsi Madam. McLaughlin. egziste. Graham, si mwen ka diskite sou idantifikasyon nan ekonomi an mansyone pi bonè.

[Jenny Graham]: Wi, tanpri fè sa.

[David Murphy]: Mwen remèsye komite a pou pasyans yo, tolerans ak volonte pou adrese pwoblèm sa a jan nou te fè nan semèn ki sot pase yo. Mwen panse ke pandan ke sa a ka diferan, Aktyèlman, mwen panse ke nou esansyèlman kouvri peyi a menm jan ak lavi a toujou, men mwen vle fè li pi plis efikasite ak iremedyableman nan yon fason plis transparan. Sa ki te objektif nou ane pase a. Mwen panse ke nou te amelyore ane sa a. Ki sa mwen pa vle rive se ke li montre ke li nan yon komite klasifikasyon, li nan yon priyorite, li nan sa ki komite a fè nan komite a, detèmine priyorite a segondè, Ki koresponn ak gouvènman an ki ap chèche kounye a. Sa vle di, nou pa ta fè travay nou an san yo pa chèche detèmine nenpòt ki efikasite posib ak fleksibilite nou gen nan bidjè ki egziste deja nou an, dwa? Lè sa a, Nou pral gade pou ki kalite twa zòn epi diskite sou yo nan tout reyinyon an bidjè yo wè si nou ka fè sa ki komite a jis te fè, men pou mwens pase $ 72.4 milyon dola, li pral yon moun ki idantifye pozisyon an. Ak madanm. Garusi te pale sou jan yo obsève tandans enskripsyon nan reyinyon an dezyèm bidjè, ki ka ka a Nou gen sijè ki ka tonbe. Sa a se yon bagay nou toujou ap chèche. Sa pa vle di nou kase, nou jis kenbe lajan nou nan pòch nou yo. Sa vle di nou itilize finansman sa a pou chèche lòt priyorite. Men, sa a se yon sèl bagay. Dezyèm pati a se ke mwen gen kèk pale sou kategori D, ak tan an sèlman mwen espere ke mwen pa ka siviv nan ane fiskal 23. Yo ka oswa pa pouvwa, men ki pral yon lòt fason sa a pri an jeneral ka afekte. Lè sa a, twazyèm fason mwen mansyone se ke nou se kounye a lè w konjele frè yo. Sa a se tipik. Sa a se sa nou fè chak ane. Nou dwe nan yon bon pozisyon finansye. Lè nou gade li, ka gen kèk ekonomi ki ka vire ak bese depans sa yo fiks yo. Se poutèt sa, 2% se 2%. Li nan kalkile byen e mwen panse ke li gen yon anpil nan rezistans. $ 2.6 milyon dola se posibilite pou fleksibilite, ki nou pral wè nan lavni an epi kontinye notifye komite a nan lavni. Epi li te Mesye Rousseau Finalman, mwen panse ke nou yo ap eseye yo dwe trè klè sou revni a ki ta ka pote nan bidjè Ethel a, paske li trè apwopriye yo sèvi ak finansman Esser a, oswa finansman trè apwopriye Esser a, ak ijan bezwen, e nou konnen nou bezwen fè sa. Se konsa, nan ka sa a, finansman Esser a se sipò nou yo asire nou ka fè fas a tout defi yo nan Nou se yon òganizasyon ki soti nan pandemi an.

[Jenny Graham]: Mèsi. McLaughlin manm, ou gen yon lòt kesyon oswa men ou?

[Melanie McLaughlin]: Non, kontinye. Mwen menm mwen te vle mande kesyon sa a, mwen devine sa a se ka a, men mwen jis vle mete l 'la epi mande pil la ki parèt yo dwe pataje sou sit entènèt la aswè a, evidamman pwopozisyon an bidjè plen. Se konsa, ou konnen, nan bidjè a nou konnen nou pral resevwa, mwen konnen gen nan yon bagay yo dwe fè, Se konsa, mwen konprann sa a, men yon fwa mwen pare mwen mande yo yo dwe pibliye sou sit entènèt la. Mèsi.

[David Murphy]: Pil aswè a pral pibliye demen, epi pandan liv la satisfè, nou pral genyen li tou.

[Melanie McLaughlin]: Mèsi.

[Jenny Graham]: Mesye Murphy, tanpri korije m 'si mwen nan yon move kondisyon, men pwochen etap la se demann nou yo nan men gouvènman an minisipal, ki pral aktyèlman ale nan biwo majistra -a la. Lè Majistra a prezante li nan Konsèy Vil la sou bidjè Jeneral Vil li a, li pral gen yon bon konpreyansyon sou priyorite yo komite sa a konsidere. Li te toujou yon pati nan diskisyon sa yo. Lè sa a, nou pral fè sa Rete tann pou apwobasyon bidjè konsèy vil la pou wè kisa misyon 1 jiyè nou an pral ye. Ak, anba travay sa a, nou espere ke tout bagay nou mande pou, nou pral adopte bidjè konsèy minisipal la nan afektasyon minisipal yo, epi nou pral adopte yon lòt reyinyon yo adopte bidjè konsèy minisipal la. Èske sa kòrèk?

[David Murphy]: Se vre. Èske w gen yon vòt final ta dwe etap la sèlman nan yon odyans bidjè, se sa ki, li dwe posede nan charter la. Sa pral nenpòt moman mwa pwochen. Nou pral fè sa. Ekselan. Mèsi.

[Unidentified]: McLaughlin manm.

[Melanie McLaughlin]: Dwa, Lè sa a, gen yon odyans bidjè piblik. Lè sa a, mwen te panse, ou konnen, mwen pa vle bay nenpòt moun ki jinx, men mwen devine pwosesis la se si wi ou non sibvansyon an se mwens valè pase komite lekòl la mande pou? Nan ka sa a, kisa nou ta dwe fè?

[David Murphy]: Wi, Lè sa a, mwen jis vle yo dwe klè. Ankò, mwen panse ke yo tankou gen bon priyorite. Yon fwa ankò, mwen remèsye komite a pou koute nou tout. Men, ki jan Sa a se sa mwen espere. Mwen jis vle yo dwe onèt sou li. Kòm mwen te di anpil fwa, responsablite nou se pou prepare yo pou nenpòt ki enprevi evantyèlman ak tou yo konprann ke gouvènman minisipal yo gen priyorite konpetitif. Se jis yon reyalite nan lavi, epi pandan ke nou yo fè jalouzi epi eseye fè komite a kòm byen ke nou kapab, li nan responsablite nou yo asire w ke nou ka aplike yon bidjè bon pou elèv yo kèlkeswa nimewo sa a. Se konsa, menm jan ak ane pase, osi lwen ke Delta a konsène Èspere ke li pral retounen konplètman epi detèmine ki jan nou pral fèmen moun sa a Delta. Nou eseye tankou transparan ke posib. Se konsa, mwen panse ke ou ta ka devine ki jan nou pral rekòmande pou li. Kategori B, nou pral rekòmande li nan Esser. Klas A, nou rekòmande ke li finanse anvan klas D, ak nan klas D, nou pral eseye diminye nimewo sa a lè l sèvi avèk lòt sous finansman. Lè sa a, si gen yon desizyon atansyon, Isit la se sa nou pral retounen nan komite a epi gade pou kòmantè ou a finalman rive nan nimewo a nou bezwen.

[Melanie McLaughlin]: Manm Graham, èske mwen ka reponn sa a jis oswa swiv li? Men, sèlman nan pwosesis la, si nou pa jwenn sibvansyon an jouk 1 jiyè, nou pral tounen sou tab la jwenn demenajman an, yo ta dwe li?

[David Murphy]: Wi, li te nan mwa jen. Se konsa, mwen panse ke nou pral tounen epi yo kòmanse tape Yon fwa rekòmandasyon yo te fè pou konsèy la. Ane pase a, si ou sonje, rekòmandasyon nou yo te la jiska 27 jen. Lè sa a, li te vote sou 24 jen, yon vòt ki depann sou konsèy la Esansyèlman, li se bidjè 112. Li vin pi konplike, men nou dwe ale retounen lakay yo epi chèche plis konsèy nan men ou. Men, se sa mwen espere. Nan pwen sa a, mwen espere ke mwen ta ka panse ou ta ka aksepte vòt sa a sou 13 jen. Kounye a, sa a se dènye reyinyon ou pwograme pou ane sa a. Sinon, si gen yon bagay nan lè a, li ka pran kèk jou pita pou kèk rezon. Men, nan moman sa a, tann mwen se ke li pral 13 jen.

[Jenny Graham]: Mesye Murphy, gen majistra a konsilte l 'sou orè li pou pibliye bidjè a ak konsèy la nan sa a konsiderasyon? Èske sa te etabli? Èske w konnen?

[David Murphy]: Nou te nan kominikasyon konstan ak biwo majistra a ak kòm toujou, yo te bon patnè, konvèsasyon ak bon kominikasyon pou nou, men mwen pa gen dat sa a espesifik. Si sa a se dat la nan tèt mwen, mwen pa si li nan yon dat piblik, oswa li dwe kote mwen di sa. Mwen panse ke sa a pral imajinab byento paske ane fiskal la ap vini, men mwen panse jen, tankou tout lavil nan vil la, bidjè a pral trè lou.

[Jenny Graham]: Gran, mèsi.

[David Murphy]: Mwen panse ke nou konnen nan pwodwi anvan an.

[Jenny Graham]: Enpresyonan, mèsi.

[Paul Ruseau]: Mèsi. Franchman, mwen remèsye Mesye Murphy pou kòmantè li yo. Epi, li ak mwen pa dakò fòtman sou pwen sa a, se konsa tablo lekòl la bezwen depanse anpil enèji ak enkyetid sou sitiyasyon an minisipal yo. Oke, li enpòtan pou yon sèl sonje ke kominikasyon an sèlman nou tande pale sou priyorite konpetitif ak minisipalite se Mesye Murphy. Nou pa t 'tande yon lòt. Ou konnen, ou pa kite biwo majistra a, pa kite Konsèy Minisipal la, tankou si direktè finans nan sistèm lekòl la ap eksplike piblik la kijan konplèks yo se finans minisipal yo ak ki jan gen priyorite konpetitif, e mwen pa gen okenn lòt moun nan vil la ki di ke lavil la di li byen fò. Sa a se pa yon kòmantè sou ekip konsèy vil la, men mwen pa panse ke lè mwen gade nan règleman yo tablo lekòl la, responsablite nou an pa gen okenn enkyetid sou ti finans yo minisipal yo. Responsablite nou se pou timoun yo. Edikasyon ou kòmanse ak fini. Sa a pa gen anyen fè ak lefèt ke depatman an amizman vin pi pèsonèl oswa depatman lapolis la se pi plis pèsonèl. Apre sa, mwen pa dakò ke nou ta dwe pran yon minit yo reflechi sou li. Nou dwe chèche konnen kisa elèv yo bezwen e nou ta dwe mande. Apre li te gen biwo majistra a pran chaj nan kominikasyon ki nesesè yo, mwen panse ke li la vre lè biwo sa a pa ka pote lajan nan priyorite konpetitif. Mwen pa rete nan bul, mwen konnen yo reyèl, men mwen panse ke nou pase anpil tan ap pale de finans vil la. Nou te kòmanse anvan, nou pa t 'gen kapasite nan ogmante nikèl. Èske w konnen ki moun ki fè sa? Si vil la santi l apwopriye epi yo pa kapab, taks yo ka ogmante. Ou enkyete Si ou ka peye pou demann bidjè nou an, sa a se pa yon kesyon mwen pran swen sou. Mwen fatige ak pale e mwen pa vle reprimande ou. Mesye Murphy, mwen pa pral reprimande li.

[David Murphy]: Non mwen pa fè sa. Men Mesye Rousseau ak madanm li. Graham, si mwen te kapab reponn byen vit. Kòm nou tout konnen, kòm ansyen prezidan an nan komite lekòl la, mwen panse ke nou pa dakò ak sa, Mesye Rousseau. Mwen panse ke ou gen rezon. Li nan travay ou, fè jalouzi pou bezwen yo nan sistèm lekòl la. Mwen vle di sa, mwen trè rekonesan. Apre sa, mwen panse mwen panse ke komite sa a te fè travay ou ak mwen panse ke li pral bon pou travay la. Men, mwen pa panse sa ou te tande a se ke mwen panse ke komite a ta dwe pase tan pa balanse bezwen yo nan minisipalite yo. Li se nan administrasyon lekòl la ke ou bezwen konprann ke nou fonksyone yon fason diferan, se pa paske nou vle fè gouvènman minisipal kòm anpil jan nou gen yo opere zòn nan. Kèlkeswa sibvansyon an, li se responsablite nou pou planifye pou nenpòt ki aksidan potansyèl yo. Mwen panse ke sa a se move sèvis pou komite a, kominote a se pa trè sensè nan kominote a, li di, li di:: Ann fè travay la kèlkeswa kote li rive. Sa a se responsablite nou yo. Koulye a, mwen vle di nou pral fè ou travay tankou nou fè? Non, mwen pa, paske li pa vre. Sepandan, li se responsablite nou fè li travay nan fen jounen an. Sa a se jis lavi nan administrasyon an. Mwen ka di ou ke lè mwen chita nan chèz ou a, se pa pwoblèm mwen an. Mwen te pran yon pozisyon trè senp. Men, lè travay se sa li ye, bagay yo diferan. Mwen pral sèlman di dènye pwen an. Mwen pwomèt, sa a se dènye bagay mwen vle di. Franchman, piblik la mwen te pale ak pa t 'gouvènman vil la. Chak kominote gen manm kominote yo obsève reyinyon komite lekòl la, men pa gen okenn patisipasyon dirèk kòm souvan defini nan sistèm lekòl la. Manm kominote yo se moun ki bezwen konnen responsablite nou yo pou jesyon taks ak asime responsablite a nan seryezman defann non yo nan timoun Medford la. Apre sa, mwen panse ke nou gen yon pi bon opòtinite yo jenere konfyans ak konfyans nan mitan manm kominote a, epi si yo konnen nou yo jis mande ki sa nou bezwen ak sa nou konnen nou ka fè travay la, yo pa patisipe dirèkteman. An menm tan an, nou vle ba yo yon lide sou sa nou pral bezwen ak ki jan priyorite sa yo devlope. Sa a se gwo poto transparan ki akonpayé koerans. Men, mwen konnen Gen kèk moun ki nan kominote w la ki vle konprann transparans, ak kèk moun ki nan kominote ou ki vle konprann koperasyon. Mwen panse ke responsablite nou an se pou pale ak tou de pou ke li se tan vini ak envite yo envesti plis nan lekòl la, epi yo konnen nou pral eseye depanse tout nikèl la yo te bay bon konprann. Mwen panse ke sa a se background nan nan revizyon an koral. Lannwit, plan lannwit. Mèsi. Mèsi.
