ii. Nyah: shared Loudon County Capital Asset Program <br />Fund model via email: <br />https://www.loudoun.gov/DocumentCenter/View/1641 <br />24/13a---Capital-Asset-Preservation-Program-Fund <br /> <br />d. Jean: Group has met seven times, has been very valuable in <br />understanding the breadth of the issues facing – aging schools <br />aren’t serving our students well <br />i. Time to write a report on what we’ve learned – state of <br />our capital needs - and have recommendations for next <br />steps in the report <br />ii. Would like to have a draft of the report/executive <br />summary for our next meeting in August to be reviewed <br />by group and discuss whether to approve <br />1. Would then go to BOCC and school boards for <br />review <br />a. Would like to get a consultant to review <br />the needs and come up with a 10 year plan <br />to address needs in both districts <br />i. What policy changes do we need <br />to make <br />2. Need buy-in from group – would continue to <br />meet but as an advisory group to consultant <br />iii. Bonnie: agrees with Jean’s idea <br />iv. Jean: we need a sub-committee – Jean, Bonnie, OC staff, <br />member of staff from each district (total of 5 people) <br />1. Jean will reach out to people individually outside <br />of the meeting <br />v. Carrie: agrees with plan and thanked chair and vice chair <br />for leadership – should we add a board member from <br />CHCCS to the sub-committee? <br />vi. Bonnie – how hard is it to hire and offer competitive <br />salaries for school facilities staff? <br />1. Al: Qualified people are out there but salaries are <br />hard – can be rewarding even if not able to pay <br />as much as in private sector <br />2. Patrick: depends on local contractors – have a <br />large HVAC/mechanical contractor in <br />Hillsborough and often lose HVAC mechanics to <br />that company and to area universities <br />a. No career ladder so how do they do that <br />to retain staff? Help with licensing? Job <br />shadowing with current high school <br />students as a recruitment tool <br /> <br />4. Next Meeting is Wednesday, August 17, 2022 <br />DocuSign Envelope ID: F3ECCCC4-11C5-4B8B-A148-28FAABFF6334
