On May 4, 2016 and May 11, 2016, the Board held additional discussions on this topic and directed staff to provide a public hearing opportunity for citizens at an upcoming Planning Commission meeting and to reconvene the CIP Oversight Committee to provide comments and feedback to the Board on this topic.
On May 12, 2016, the School Board provided a resolution that requested specific school projects be included on the bond referendum.
On May 24, 2016, the Planning Commission held a public hearing on the potential amendment to the CIP, and on May 26, 2016, the Oversight Committee met to review the proposed amendment and discuss a potential bond referendum.
