Department of Public Instruction Forms -School Capital Needs Surve <br />The Board reviewed submissions to the State Department of Public Instruction by the two <br />school systems regarding their capital facility needs through fiscal year 2007-08. <br />Commissioner Gordon made reference to the forms and clarified that these are to give the <br />five-year capital needs of each school system. The recommendation is that the Board does not do <br />anything with this except sign it. She asked for an explanation and said that she would like to discuss <br />it in the context of the interim capital plan. <br />Assistant County Manager Rod Visser said that five years ago all school boards were <br />required to submit a list of their capital needs. The school boards are to submit updates every five <br />years of their long-term capital needs. There is nothing in the statutes that require County Boards to <br />approve this. However, the State Department of Public Instruction does like for the County Boards to <br />review the capital needs survey. He said that the needs put forth to the Department of Public <br />Instruction (DPI) were consistent with the needs that the school systems identified in the approved <br />CIP's for the next 10 years. The needs were also consistent with the information that was presented <br />
