ACTION ITEMS - GENERAL Type Action Recommended Action Approve the Board of Education's participation in the California School Cash Reserve Program and authorize the borrowing of funds for fiscal year 2025-2026 through the issuance and sale of one or more series of 2025-2026 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes (TRANs), as submitted. Goals Goal 1: Implement targeted actions and services that support conditions for optimal learning, equitable access, and positive student outcomes. ISSUE: Should the Board of Education participate in the California School Cash Reserve Program and authorize the borrowing of funds for fiscal year 2025-2026 through the issuance and sale of one or more series of 2025-2026 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes (TRANs)? INFORMATION: Due to County property tax collection schedules and subsequent payments to the School District, borrowing funds for cash flow purposes is necessary for the District to meet its financial obligations. By passing the resolution before the Board, the District will have the opportunity to participate in the California School Cash Reserve Program sponsored by California School Boards Association Finance Corporation. The Program issues TRANs for more than half of all California school districts, community college districts, and county offices of education that issue TRANs. Through participation in the Cash Reserve Program, the District will be able to issue a tax and revenue anticipation note as part of a cost-effective pooled structure. An overview of this cash management concept and the Program is provided below: Cash Reserve Program Background: The first Cash Reserve Program was issued in June of 1988 for six districts with an aggregate issue amount of $9.6 million. Since that time, the Program has grown dramatically in size, servicing the majority of California school district TRANs issuers. Each year, the Program has resulted in a significant benefit to the participants. The highlights of the Program are as follows: Participants benefit from a cost-effective and administratively simple method to issue their TRANs Documentation is streamlined for governing board approval Participants benefit from year-round administrative assistance Tax and Revenue Anticipation Notes (TRANs): TRANs are short-term debt instruments issued by school districts throughout the State to create an additional reserve to the general fund. In our District, this reserve will act as a cushion to the general fund in the event that we experience temporary cash flow needs. These cash flow needs may occur as a result of the timing mismatch between the receipt of revenues (generally received in an uneven fashion) and the expenditure of general fund moneys (generally paid out in a more level fashion). TRANs Economics: Through our participation in the Program, the District will issue a tax-exempt note. The proceeds from the sale of this note, when not needed for cash flow, are invested in a taxable investment. This may result in a positive spread between the borrowing rate and the investment return on the TRANs proceeds. Cash Reserve Program Process: The Cash Reserve Program involves the following key steps in order to participate: Adoption of Resolution: Adoption of the resolution does not obligate the District to participate in the Program. The resolution simply delegates to the administration the right to decide on participation. Cash Flow and Credit Background Process: Participants submit a completed credit questionnaire and financial information (including audits, budget, and second-period interim cash flow report) that is used to develop an initial pro-forma cash flow statement for 2024-2025. Participants review, revise, and approve their cash flow statement in consultation with Dale Scott & Company, the Program's Financial Advisor. The cash flows are reviewed by Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe, the Program's Bond Counsel. Sale of TRANs: The pricing of the issue is anticipated to occur in mid-June. At that time, the interest rate on the notes will be locked-in. Our District is not obligated to participate until it acknowledges issuance after the sale of the TRANs. Closing: Closing of the issue will occur in early July. Our District will have access to the proceeds of the TRANs available to meet our temporary cash flow needs. FISCAL IMPACT : Estimated interest: TBD depending on cash flow needs and the size of the note. Respectfully submitted, Mark W. McLaughlin, Ed.D. Superintendent Prepared by, Victor P. Hayek, Ed.D.

Business Services - Adoption of Resolution #24/25-36 Authorizing Delivery of Naylor Act Notices for the 975 Evenstar Avenue Property and Declaring the Property "Exempt Surplus Land" Under the Government Code Meeting Apr 2, 2025 - Regular Board Meeting Category 2. ACTION ITEMS - GENERAL Type Action, Discussion Recommended Action Adopt Resolution #24/25-36 authorizing delivery of Naylor Act Notices for the 975 Evenstar Avenue Property and declaring the property "Exempt Surplus Land" under the Government Code, as submitted. Goals Goal 1: Implement targeted actions and services that support conditions for optimal learning, equitable access, and positive student outcomes. ISSUE: Should the Board of Education adopt Resolution #24/25-36 authorizing delivery of Naylor Act Notices for the 975 Evenstar Avenue Property and declaring the Property "Exempt Surplus Land" under the Government Code? INFORMATION: Conejo Valley Unified School District (the “ District ”) owns an approximately 8.3-acre parcel of real property located at 975 Evenstar Avenue, Westlake Village, California 91361 (the “ Property ”). The District used the Property for the “Triunfo School” until 1984, at which time the site was declared surplus. Subsequently, the District leased the Property to a private school. Recently, the private school secured an alternate location and is expected to vacate the Property by July 2025. On November 20, 2024, the District’s Board of Education (the “ Board ”) authorized the formation of a surplus property advisory committee (the “ 7-11 Committee ”) to review the Property, current and projected student enrollment, district facilities, and other pertinent data; recommend whether the Property should be declared surplus ( i . e ., not needed for school classroom purposes); and recommend uses of the Property if it is declared surplus. The 7-11 Committee met on January 29, 2025 and February 26, 2025, and concluded that the Property should be declared surplus and made available for lease. On March 19, 2025, the Board adopted Resolution No. 24/25-31, which declared the Property surplus in accordance with the 7-11 Committee’s recommendation. The District has not yet offered the Property for lease by third parties. Before doing so, the District must comply with the Naylor Act (codified in Education Code Sections 17485, et seq .). This law aims to ensure that there is sufficient recreational land available within local communities. In furtherance of that goal, the statute requires school districts to notify the local city, local park and recreation district, regional park authority, and local county about the availability of school sites with playgrounds, playing fields, and recreational space for lease or sale. The public agencies have 60 days to provide the District written notice of their interest in the Property. However, prior to making an offer to purchase or lease the Property, the public agency’s governing body must make a finding, approved by two-thirds of its members, that public lands in the vicinity of the school site are inadequate to meet the existing and foreseeable needs of the community for playground, playing field, or other outdoor recreational and open-space purposes. By adopting Resolution No. 24/25-36, the Board will authorize District administration to issue Naylor Act notices to the City of Thousand Oaks, Conejo Park and Recreation District, and the Ventura County Parks Department. The notices will indicate that the Property is available for lease only. Any proposed leases will be brought back to the Board for review and approval. The Board reserves the right to reject any and all proposals. Additionally, the Surplus Land Act, codified in Government Code Sections 54220, et seq ., generally applies to real property that a public agency has declared surplus. However, property subject to the 7-11 Committee process is exempt from the Surplus Land Act procedures and requirements. By adopting the attached Resolution, the Board will also find that the Property is “exempt surplus land” pursuant to Government Code Section 54221(f).

Meeting Apr 2, 2025 - Regular Board Meeting Category 2. ACTION ITEMS - GENERAL Type Action, Discussion Recommended Action Adopt Resolution #24/25-37, declaring the district's intention to lease the 975 Evenstar Avenue Property pursuant to Education Code Sections 17455, et seq., as submitted. Goals Goal 1: Implement targeted actions and services that support conditions for optimal learning, equitable access, and positive student outcomes. ISSUE: Should the Board of Education adopt Resolution #24/25-37 declaring the District’s intention to lease the 975 Evenstar Avenue Property pursuant to Education Code Sections 17455, et seq .? INFORMATION: The Conejo Valley Unified School District (the “ District ”) owns the real property located at 975 Evenstar Avenue, Westlake Village, California 91361 (the “ Property ”). The District used the Property for the “Triunfo School” until 1984, at which time the site was declared surplus. Subsequently, the District leased the Property to a private school. Recently, the private school secured an alternate location and is expected to vacate the Property by July 2025. On March 19, 2025, at a regularly held meeting, the District's Board of Education (the “ Board ”) adopted Resolution #24/25-31, which declared the Property surplus ( i . e ., not needed for school classroom purposes). The District is considering leasing the Property to third parties. As a preliminary step, the District will provide written notice of the availability of the Property for lease to the local city, local park district, any regional park authority, and the local county (the “ Naylor Act Agencies ”) pursuant to Education Code Sections 17485, et seq. , and Resolution #24/25-36 (which was adopted prior to consideration of this Resolution). In the event that the District does not receive a written notice of interest from any one or more of the Naylor Act Agencies within the 60-day timeframe required by law, or if the District receives a timely notice of interest from any one or more of the Naylor Act Agencies but is unable to consummate a final agreement for the lease of the Property with one of the Naylor Act Agencies, then the District may offer the Property for lease to any other tenant(s). By adopting Resolution #24/25-37, the Board will declare its intention to lease the Property in accordance with Education Code Section 17466. The resolution also specifies the minimum rental price of $25,000 per month with annual increases and various required minimum lease terms and conditions, including, but not limited to, a lease duration of 1-3 years, renewable with a 1 year or less notice of termination by the District (or up to 10 years if the Tenant agrees to make substantial capital improvements to the Property); the allowable uses ( e.g ., similar to existing use as a school, education center or other related use, and other permitted uses); acceptance of the Property in “as-is” condition; tenant responsibility for ongoing maintenance and repairs; tenant responsibility for grounds maintenance; renovation approval procedures; indemnity; insurance; and other matters. These matters, and additional information regarding the bidding process and the Property, are set forth in a Request for Bids that is attached to the Resolution. If the Board approves Resolution #24/25-37, then the District will advertise the availability of the Property for lease by publishing notices in the local newspaper, posting notices in at least three public places within district boundaries, and providing information about the process on the District website. ( See Education Code Section 17469.) Additionally, the District will host an optional on-site pre-bid meeting at the Property tentatively set for April 30, 2025, at 4:00 p.m. (subject to coordination with the existing tenant). The Resolution sets 4:00 p.m. on Thursday, June 12, 2025, as the deadline for submission of lease proposals. At its regular June 18, 2025 meeting at 4:00 p.m., the Board will open and declare sealed proposals for leasing the Property, then call for oral bids, pursuant to Education Code Sections 17472 and 17473. The Board would then determine whether it wants to accept any bids at that meeting or an adjourned meeting. (Education Code Section 17475.) Any final lease agreement would be brought back to the Board for approval. Alternatively, the Board may reject any and all bids, either written or oral, and withdraw the Property from lease. (Education Code Section 17476.) In the event that the District complies with Education Code Sections 17455 et seq ., but the process does not result in a final lease, Resolution #24/25-37 grants the Deputy Superintendent, Business Services to independently negotiate a lease at a price not less than fair market value with any other lessee in accordance with Education Code Section 17477. Any such lease would be brought back to the Board for review, consideration, and approval. FISCAL IMPACT: The lease is expected to generate a minimum of $300,000 of revenue per year, without expense to the General Budget, which will be deposited into the General Fund as revenue. Additional costs, such as maintenance or improvements, will be the responsibility of the lessee, per the to be negotiated lease terms. Respectfully submitted, Mark W. McLaughlin, Ed.D.

GAMUT is a policy update service offered through the California School Boards Association (CSBA) which provides information about new laws and court opinions which may affect Board Policies, Administrative Regulations, and Board Bylaws. Board Policy 5030 - Student Wellness: The Healthy, Hunger-Free Kids Act of 2010 mandates each district participating in the National School Lunch Program or any program in the Child Nutrition Act of 1966, including the School Breakfast Program, to adopt a districtwide school wellness policy. During the District Child Nutrition State Program review, it was discovered that the district's current policy is different from the GAMUT suggested policy and does not include the required Nondiscrimination Statement per the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA). The proposed policy is substantially different, therefore, the prior policy is proposed to be struck out with the district adopting the current suggested GAMUT policy with the required language.
