Bill Flynn, a district fiscal staff member, explained the Level 2 analysis: to qualify a district must meet criteria such as having a bond and portable-classroom percentages; SchoolWorks prepared the analysis the board reviewed. Flynn noted the prior Level 1 fee used for comparison was about $5.17 per square foot; the Level 2 fee the board adopted formally is $5.64.

On district finances, fiscal staff presented updated Community Facilities District (CFD) and developer-fee receipts. Flynn told trustees the district received nearly $4 million in CFD revenue to date, beating the conservative projection; about $2 million of that total was a payment tied to an Amazon warehouse. He also said another warehouse project is in progress and could yield roughly $500,000, though that payment may fall into the next fiscal year. The larger-than-expected receipts, Flynn said, improve the district's capacity to carry the COP payment plan and to fund facilities projects beyond the Measure J bond.

Trustees asked for further detail about commercial developer-fee rates; fiscal staff said the current commercial rate is about $0.84 per square foot. Board members also raised infrastructure concerns tied to new development: staff recalled a rough estimate for the district-required bridge/road work to serve a future elementary site of $5 million to $7 million and said the district would revisit those infrastructure cost estimates if and when a project advances.

The board adopted the Level 2 fee resolution by unanimous vote. Flynn and administration said they will continue monthly fiscal-responsibility updates, monitor CFD and developer-fee receipts, and present recommended uses of the additional funds as project bids and schedules firm up. Ending: trustees instructed staff to continue conservative budgeting while evaluating new CFD and developer-fee receipts against long-term capital needs.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Snowline JUSD Board Meeting 5.27.2025","oneSentenceSummary","The Snowline Joint Unified School District board opened a public hearing on developer fees and then unanimously adopted a resolution setting Level 2 school developer fees at $5.64 per square foot.","taxTitle","Snowline Joint Unified, School Districts, California","taxId",38727,"location","California","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6221112,"District forms AI committee, expands instructional-technology supports for teachers and students",254,4743000,4997000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3614797-ed14ad4d773b2ac47813e1bd122f2976&start=4743&end=4997","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3614797-ed14ad4d773b2ac47813e1bd122f2976/thumbnail_4743000.jpg","/articles/6221112/California/District-forms-AI-committee-expands-instructional-technology-supports-for-teachers-and-students","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6221112-3e9aaa6f4daa2e82ab36df9ba9a06f81/orig.mp4?Expires=1771102504&Signature=Lb7HXWUASLvy21Ntp7HiwAuqiSYklv3hO-wrmYg9xxgOZfhVOq-b-TOlfkZNRDJaPOSz2YOUpvMwjjrp9EMzFzD7SJqJFEx9VB3CP1LZjnWiB-UcokErebN3A0bnMHI4XiNFOhZGijD2G8vbbI3-n7JisR4kmdJ7EPcDSIwBO05VHdnhkXJvK2tUyEcgoxjn~vBSxukEgg2EdXdYbUsJ5qUoIN26UByKP0pwnydawMjG5NJdjHBmES91Rm4iFGHuNTUJENHoQFY-X5T92K2A6qmAsYcN91PNVkBGxdW1Rq4vQ~iP077MVfCGptZ1yAPhtrw98f2lNPkzBqkcTykpsQ__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Deb Peace, the district's instructional-technology lead, told trustees Snowline Joint Unified is shifting technology staffing and policy to give teachers faster help in classrooms and to prepare students for emerging artificial intelligence tools.

Peace said the district moved from a sole full-release Technology TOSA model to a system that places TLLs (teacher technology leaders) at individual sites so teachers can get \"more immediate support\" without staff traveling across the district. She also said the TLLs have improved the district's digital-citizenship alignment and that the paperwork documenting instruction is now collected in a shared Google Drive so a student who transfers schools receives consistent lessons.

On AI, Peace said the district has started \"an artificial intelligence committee\" and will develop best practices and classroom policies. \"Some of the new changes we have in classroom technology are kind of exciting. We're entering the artificial intelligence world and, trying to figure out, is it a cool toy, or is it going to help us, or is it gonna kill us all?\" Peace said during her presentation. She told trustees the committee will look at tools that give students faster feedback on essays while ensuring teachers remain central to instruction, and that committee membership should expand to include middle- and high-school computer-technology teachers as AI becomes part of programming curricula.

Peace also highlighted universal-access work: configuring Google accessibility tools and training staff in text-to-speech and speech-to-text so students with IEPs or 504 plans can use the same supports across sites. Trustees asked about cadence and membership for the AI committee; Peace said she expects the committee to meet a couple of times next year as the district evaluates tools and pilots classroom uses.

The board did not adopt a formal district AI policy at the meeting; staff said the committee will return with recommendations about classroom policy, purchases and training. Ending: Peace asked for continued board support for piloting tools and for funding recommendations from the proposed committee when it presents findings to the board.","Instructional-technology lead Deb Peace told trustees the district has expanded site-based technology leader (TLL) support, aligned digital-citizenship instruction across schools, and will convene a committee to develop AI best practices and classroom policy.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6221117,"District updates Measure J spending, seeks construction manager for Toronto High modernization",573,5335000,5908000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3614797-ed14ad4d773b2ac47813e1bd122f2976&start=5335&end=5908","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3614797-ed14ad4d773b2ac47813e1bd122f2976/thumbnail_5335000.jpg","/articles/6221117/California/District-updates-Measure-J-spending-seeks-construction-manager-for-Toronto-High-modernization","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6221117-37d059f0569dd742ea43ec7cf0a59a24/orig.mp4?Expires=1771102504&Signature=d56CyQwkQLzkiK94drXv41P9NZ40mjkj908M0jkOhljT8pBb6sL-22vEn~ClVtfOaqz3xfsgK9X~yJZ8d0jgqU~8l8PE3x0G5ZSZGIYeORQGXKXjpbHBznXi1-cKJaTXZptNqllK11iQpJXqJqKdyKU-I2myfcBEkIcrodTE4vZ-C0Mf90MfrKqJdsyGio0LTL3Tx-Qz65hMNt9knE0XOyk2hVLWyBlJF1Uhyeb3xiNsaqSHyEsBy8agmam21U-q6BUWceS5KV4sCdexozHL8WAFdyIE9VeSzEErruqiWEJRJf8HocPhKIr5OLuRmw1BZyHGBKDslDwy27rPrk9-yA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Snowline Joint Unified School District trustees heard an update on facilities funding and projects, including the recent creation of Fund 21 tied to the district's Measure J bond proceeds and the near-final selection of a construction management firm to oversee major modernization work.

District staff said the county has created Fund 21 and the money from the first series A bond issuance has been transferred to that fund; staff expect the official fund reporting to appear in the district's financial system next month. Bill Flynn, a district fiscal staff member, told the board the county has the money on file even though the district could not yet run the report from its system the morning of the meeting.

The presentation covered a slate of projects across multiple funds, including ongoing work under Fund 14, potential state matching (OPSC) grants for Baldy Mesa and Chaparral, and the $30 million Measure J bond (shown in planning materials as a roughly $29.8 million net receipt after issuance costs). Bill Flynn said the district's accounting will be updated as actual project bids and invoices arrive so the board can see real-time balances.

On project delivery, staff reported they interviewed four construction management firms and were \"on the precipice\" of making a final selection. Dr. Paul Mitchell, speaking for the district, said the selected firm will help manage the Toronto High School modernization and other Measure J projects, and will develop phasing, logistics and weekly work-in-progress schedules for construction around occupied campuses.

Trustees also discussed individual project items from the facilities master plan: a recent scope check on a septic system found no fundamental flaw, meaning many restroom clogs appear to be point-of-use issues rather than system failure; a possible Serrano High School track-and-field addition remains in the planning stage and would be considered as an alternate in the Serrano modernization; and the district expects DSA (Division of the State Architect) approval for some Serrano plans in June.

Staff gave a conservative timeline: once DSA approvals are complete and a construction manager is on board, realistic multi-year phasing and summer-constrained construction windows mean projects are likely to take multiple years from design through completion. Oversight-committee training tied to bond oversight was noted for August per legal counsel's recommendation.

The board did not take an additional vote on capital projects during the update; staff said they will return with formal contract awards and project bids as procurement actions are ready. Trustees asked staff to present more detailed water-usage and life-cycle cost estimates if turf or synthetic field options are considered. Ending: staff said they will bring the construction management recommendation back to the board and continue monthly facilities updates so trustees can monitor spending and schedules.

Alan Miller, speaking for the administration, summarized each agreement. McKinley Children's Center will provide enhanced care management for families covered by Kaiser and Molina; the program will place a lead care manager to coordinate services out of the Student Intervention/Support office and will bill Medi-Cal for reimbursable services. \"There is no cost to the district as the company will bill Medi-Cal for the services,\" Miller said.

The board also approved a memorandum with the Happier Life Project to provide drug- and alcohol-education and anger-management group sessions for students and parent engagement presentations. Miller said those services will be billed under the Children and Youth Behavioral Health Initiative (CYBHI) or parents' insurance; the district will not incur program costs. He told the board the MOU expands resources beyond the district's existing tobacco-prevention (2toPay) classes and social-work services and is intended to help address fighting and drug use on campuses.

Both agreements drew no-cost-to-district language and were approved unanimously. Ending: trustees directed staff to monitor outcomes and data from the new partners and to report back on utilization and program effectiveness as part of regular student-support updates.

","Trustees approved Memoranda of Understanding with McKinley Children's Center and the Happier Life Project, both to provide services at school sites at no cost to the district while billing Medi-Cal or other public programs for reimbursable services.","actionData","errors"]
