Ted Wright comments in purple:

1-2) Steve Stout, Memory Ostrander, and Wendell Johnson present (with Jana Oder absent). Note: empty seat will likely be filled at July meet.
3) no requests to address board
4) minutes approved
5) purchases approved
6) 2 Wilson Elementary fundraisers approved
7) Jordan Smith presented a financial plan to raise ~$14 million for (TBA) school construction plans if voters approve a bond issue (election likely in October 2013 to have funds available in March 2014). The bond issue total would be ~$20 million to finance the bonds over a 10 year plan with a lease arrangement to provide the money for up-front construction. The plan calls for a 6% increase of 7 mills (to a total ~30 mills tax rate from the current 22.95 mills). The financial plan is rather conservative having dropped to an estimated 3% growth (instead of more recent 6% growth) used in past years with real estate property evaluation slowing. The board asked questions of the financial plan but did not discuss potential projects yet. No action was taken.
FYI: (Similar discussion in Oct. 2007 for ~$6 million and bond priorities were set at following Nov. 2007 meet) ... (Dec. 2010 Jordan Smith reco waiting a year or two for next bond)
