Action Items

Replacement of large/middle Bus Barn Overhead Door
Rationale:
Joey assisted Mr. Hafer in getting more information and a more detailed quote related to our overhead door situation on the bus barn. The main/head service technician came out and inspected the situation after we asked for more information and options. The result is they now recommend full door replacement due to what they found. Joey will be present for the meeting to provide more information and answer any questions.
If would appear that replacing this door is the best option at this point. This could be done with Depreciation funds.

Consideration to approve watering options for FB practice field
Rationale:
Our current water reel, used to water the practice field, needs to be replaced. That being said, we priced a new reel in addition to installing automatic sprinklers. Please see the attached quotes or estimates for each option.
I have been in contact with Lisa Schroedl, City of Ainsworth Admin. I asked permission to install automatic sprinklers "if" that was the option the Board preferred. She is going to take it to the City Council on February 14th. She did not feel it would be an issue, but it still needed the City's approval. It is recommended the Board decides at this meeting "pending permission from the City Council" if it is to install automatic sprinklers. That allows us to get arrangements made to complete the project in time for summer water. If the decision is a water reel replacement, that is more straightforward. Joey Finley will be present to answer any questions related to this item as well.

ACS Board Policy Review
Rationale:
The Board is committed to the ongoing review and maintenance of Board Policy. Policies will be provided to the Policy Committee in advance and then to the entire Board for review/approval on a regular basis.
The policies in this month's review are standard policies and have no recommendation for change or update either from Mr. Hafer or the NASB Policy Review Service. A simple review is sufficient unless the Board proposes changes to the policies presented. As per Board Policy, a review of policy may be conducted by one reading of the Board. If changes are made, the current Board Policy requires 2 readings of the Board prior to the adoption of changes.

Withdrawal of membership from the Southwest Conference
Rationale:
After open discussion at the January 9, 2024, regular board meeting, it was clear the Board would be reading to entertain a motion to formally withdraw from the Southwest Conference.
Supt. Hafer attended a Southwest Conference Superintendent's meeting on January 17th in Gothenburg. At that time, it was explained to the Superintendents the reasoning behind Ainsworth wanting to leave the conference. The SWC Supts were very understanding and voted to allow Ainsworth to withdraw from the conference effective at the end of the 2023-24 school year. |
