During "The Month of the Military Child," schools have been recognizing their military-connected students and their families' contributions to our country and community. These young heroes continue to inspire us despite the challenges they face due to their unique situation, such as having a parent deployed for extended periods, changing schools, and leaving friends. These students demonstrate their resilience through their achievements, successes, and contributions to the community in which they live. Below are a few ways schools throughout the district will show appreciation to our military-connected students and families during the month of April.

Consent Agenda Subject 7.01 Approve Permanent Utility Easement Between The School Board of Hillsborough County and Tampa Electric Company at Grady Elementary School (Operations) Meeting Apr 5, 2022 - Regular School Board Meeting Type Action (Consent) Recommended Action Approve permanent utility easement between the School Board and Tampa Electric Company for relocation of overhead electrical lines to underground at Grady Elementary School. DESCRIPTION : Tampa Electric Company has begun to implement its "Tampa Electric's Storm Protection Plan" to provide safe, reliable and affordable electricity within the communities in Hillsborough County. A Letter of Intent was issued on September 30, 2021, to Tampa Electric for the purpose of granting a permanent utility easement at Grady Elementary School, which would allow Tampa Electric access onto School Board property to relocate overhead power lines underground, making them less susceptible to power outages during extreme weather events. Overhead distribution equipment, lines, and poles have been removed as part of the improvements. Tampa Electric has provided the legal and sketch of the easement location, along with the approved easement document for School Board execution. After approval and signature, Tampa Electric will submit the document to the Hillsborough County Clerk's Office for recording. GAP ANALYSIS : The Storm Protection Plan is a Tampa Electric program that involves the under-grounding of power lines to increase the service reliability during storms and reduce the restoration time after storms. Grady Elementary would receive new pad-mounted equipment placed inside the school's fenced in boundary. PREVIOUS OUTCOMES: Power outages in previous storms have resulted in longer wait times for power restoration to School Board properties. EXPECTED OUTCOMES: Upon completion of the relocation of the lines underground, wait times for power restoration to Grady Elementary and the surrounding community should be nominal. The underground lines were installed using minimal impact, directional-boring technology, instead of open trenching, where possible. After Tampa Electric has completed the work, they will be responsible to restore any damage done to the property.
