RE: Item #H-6 Citizen's Advisory Committee to Study Future
Growth and Facilities
BACKGROUND:
In the development and discussion of the District Master Plan, the
Board and administration recognized that there were many issues
related to the future of Dublin Schools which should be addressed
in a thorough manner. This examination should be complete and take
place over an adequate period of time. This review and analysis
will have lasting implications for the future of Dublin Schools.
At the meeting of March 7, 1990 , the Board directed the
administration to initiate a process to establish a Citizen's
Advisory Committee to study the long range future of Dublin
Schools. The Board expressed a desire that this Citizen's Advisory
Committee be broad based and include representatives of the total
community who have been approved by the Board of Trustees.
It is important, as such a process begins, for the committee to
understand that it is the desire of Board of Trustees, as expressed
early in the review of the Master Plan, that the school district
boundaries should move with the city of Dublin in the future. It
is also important for the committee to recognize that their
recommendations will be carefully considered in future Board
actions related to the charges of this group.
CHARGES
It will be the responsibility of the Citizen's Advisory Committee
to make recommendations to the Board in several areas. A list of
proposed charges are presented for your consideration.
1. Review the projected enrollments for Dublin Schools.
2. Review the use of current facilities and establish
criteria for the use of district facilities in the
future.
3 . Review current attendance boundaries.
4. Develop plans for increased student attendance resulting
from any future growth in the City of Dublin.
5. Review the financial impact of the recommendations made
by the committee to the Board.
CITIZEN'S ADVISORY COMMITTEE COMPOSITION
The administration recommends that the Citizen's Advisory Committee
be composed of the following:
One representative and one alternate from each school site as
nominated by parent groups.
One representative and one alternate from the District
Advisory Council for the School Based Coordination Program.
One representative and one alternate from the City of Dublin.
One representative and one alternate from the Dublin Chamber
of Commerce.
One representative and one alternate from the Valley Teachers'
Association, Dublin Caucus.
One representative and one alternate from the California
School Employees' Association.
Vince Anaclerio, Assistant Superintendent, who will represent
the district administration (non voting member) and provide
the Committee with logistical support and the resources
necessary to study the Board charges.
There will be a total of eleven voting members on the Citizen's
Advisory Committee, the six school representatives, the District
Advisory Committee representative, the city and Chamber
representatives, and the two employee group representatives.
It is suggested that the Board appoint members of the committee at
their meeting of May 16th in order to give all groups represented
an opportunity to consider their members at regularly scheduled
meetings in April and early May.
FINANCIAL SUPPORT
It may be necessary for the committee to need monetary support for
their activities and the administration recommends that a budget be
developed to include "up to" $10,000 to provide this support.
PROPOSED TINELINE
A timeline will have to be reviewed and adopted by the committee
but the following draft will be presented for their review. All
ten of these proposed meetings are on Wednesdays when the Board of
Trustees does not meet. The committee may wish to schedule
meetings at other times as appropriate.
