12:53 am
memorialized in our current student hanbook. therhandbook.it includes languaa and one thing, we have noticed over the years that many of the items that should be board policies have been codified in the student family handbook as opposed by the board. so we're trying to make sure as we catch these things that we transition them to board po policies and we reiterate them in the student handbook and this is one of those items, but we don't expect this to be a change in practise. again, this is just to memorialize what we're doing and if we want a longer discussion about changing that, we can do that. but we're trying to get the status quo adopted. >> thank you. >> so unless i hear otherwise from legal council, i'm referring the policy to the rule's committee. >> great.
12:54 am
>> great. section l, proposals for immediate action on the rules and there are none tonight. and section m, board member's reports. ok, so the following virtual meeting have taken place since the regular board meeting. and budget and business services, which was wednesday may 6th. and that was at 3:00 p.m. commissioner lamb. >> thank you. so we got a very detailed update from cfo, megan wallace, and with young lee and embarking on our process and knowing, also, with histori historical deficitt we had initial projections, both for this coming year, coupled with some additional covid-19
12:55 am
12:56 am
so i believe under the leadership of pelosi, there's a great push in the coming weeks to see if we can get what the next package will look like and so again, all hands on deck, both within the district, our city leaders working with the state legislators as well as our federal leaders around what that will look like and the summary there. >> you don't want to press us with the real numbers?
12:57 am
>> the initial protection for next year is upward of 80 million. the staff presented some initial budgeting solutions that worse case scenario with the budget solutions, we're nearing about over $55 million. >> thank you. >> go ahead, superintendent. >> the may revise comes out then and we'll have a much better -- i was going to say a better picture but it won't be a better picture. but at least the governor's first projection after this pandemic, so it will have what he is seeing and what he views as the effects of the pandemic on the economy. so we'll have more after thursday. >> great. thank you.
12:58 am
before we move on, engaging with the public and so that similar -- how critical it is to engage our stakeholders to understanding what this would mean as far as tough decisions ahead and tough conversations. >> thank you, commissioner lamb. and any reports from board delegates to member organizations such as csba and cgcs? all other reports by board members? >> actually, i have one question about the budget. i was looking through the agenda. are we coming back to this?
12:59 am
>> it is not on our agenda. >> so just one thing quickly i wanted to say to the proposed changes i looked through. i just have questions and i would like somebody to follow up with what the cuts to those positions will mean around the affinity work. that's critical to the students that we serve to those programs and i know that is one of the proposed solutions to the cost measure and i'm not trying to get into it now, but i just wanted to make that public and for someone to talk to me about what they see as the impact on those students, when those positions are filled. >> commissioner collins. >> i had a question because i had raised questions and it's related, somewhat, to commissioner cook's question i had raised, some specific questions that i said i wanted and i thought i wanted to get
1:00 am
follow-up on. theres was a whole bunch of positions that were eliminated in the student's family community support and i wanted specifics and i'm just wondering, i think it would be helpful for all of us as a board to get that information, and i was hoping in a report, i would like a dialogue and i am wondering if we could put that up on the cal-meeting agenda because staff is supposed to respond. i think other commissioners will be interested and i think it's more after dialogue than one way. >> ok, so when we do agenda review, we will make sure to fit it in more. >> thank you. >> so the next is calendar committee meetings and i don't know, mr. steel, if -- i know you've been in contact with the different advisory committees. >> yes. so i have been gathering
1:01 am
information on who's ready to report and i'm going to bring that to a general review for us to continue to schedule for the remainder of the year. >> and as far as our committee meeting, does any board member have a date and time for their next committee? >> it is posted in the agenda, mr. sanchez. >> oh, they are, ok. my bad? i'll read further. the upcoming meeting on student assignment which is monday, may 18th, at 5:00 p.m. and then budget and business service's committee meeting is wednesday, june 3rd and this is at 3:00? >> yes. >> great, thank you. and that's all we have right now. >> and i would like to schedule a meeting, but i'll be sharing that once it's scheduled. >> thank you. >> that's for curriculum. >> section m, other informational items are staff reports and one with updates and
