is a buildings capacity. Those can be different and both can be valid. In <br /> a long term capital plan we want to look at what a building can do. <br /> 3. Discussion and Group Next Steps <br /> • Bonnie: There's a couple of things on our side. We're looking at an <br /> alternative middle school. Those have very small classrooms so we <br /> don't get same capacity. There's a question about a k-8 year round. <br /> I don't know how to factor those things in. <br /> • Rani: I know we talked about October timing on how to go forward <br /> on SAPFO. <br /> • Jean: SAPFO process has slowed down so it's not clear we need a <br /> meeting in October to talk about SAPFO. However I would like a <br /> meeting in October. Thank you for this presentation. It's a lot. I'd <br /> like to talk more about the questions that have come up. <br /> • Rani: The implication is that we'll use the current process for <br /> SAPFO and November reporting will be based on current standards <br /> • Jean: SAPFO is a document for deciding on building new schools <br /> and caps towns would put on development, but neither of those are <br /> the case at this time. There's no impact of that currently, so I think <br /> we're ok. And folks that are redistricting can use the numbers they <br /> feel best. I don't want to get derailed by SAPFO process vs. looking <br /> at future. <br /> • Rani: It's good for schools to have guidance on process going <br /> forward. Legends on the slides would be helpful, and red typically <br /> means bad <br /> • Travis: We're putting together a timeline for the SAPFO <br /> consideration. We'll have Ored and SAPFO projections and can <br /> compare and contrast those. Ored will be ready in mid-October and <br /> SAPFO projections won't be ready until December. <br /> • Jean: Next meeting can we continue the discussion? <br /> • David: Woolpert has been talking to County staff and they've <br /> offered to do some modeling, and we can discuss a reasonable range <br /> for funding at our next meeting. We will craft recommendations in <br /> line with reasonable increase ideas on funding. So that it moves you <br /> forward on these needs while also being feasible and attainable. <br /> • Jean: Also it's ok to give the aspirational. <br /> • David: yes <br /> • Jean: We have a community that cares about schools so we don't <br /> want to limit ourselves. <br /> Looking forward to meeting next week,let's be sure to define things <br /> and have legends, acronym explanations, etc. given our community <br /> and how they care and want to understand what this looks like. <br /> 4. Next Meeting is October 18, 2023 <br />
