School Board Reorganization Meeting and Meeting of the Leasing Corporation

brought to Germany from Russia as a puppy. But it's hard to be sure. In theory, strict rules govern entry into the country. But dogs like Bella whose origins are total mystery. Turn up time and time again in these walls of ice, few this vaccination certificate doesn't show a rabies vaccination that means. She shouldn't have been allowed in the country in the first place Biden and based on the vaccinations. It's unclear whether these papers even belong to this dog it is that they might be random ones pond off on the owner. >> And an infant's, the mundane visit signing on to top sick animals with fake papers are typical in the legal puppy trade. Only a fraction of cases are uncovered like here at the German Polish border where animals are being sold out of a car trunk. The GOD of illegal puppy trade has become a billion euro business causing immense animal suffering. Nice to end desk it is even to the end. Way every putt is a green conservative mvp, instrumental in drafting new regulations, increasing transparency in the purchasing process is a top priority. It's is off to another problem is that 60% of all poppies, unfortunately, are bought online at this. There are a lot of loopholes there that we want to close. If your bread dogs are especially popular that reputable breeders can barely meet demand. Holger from the Pizza Animal Protection Organization has exposed many illegal online puppy traitors. Does. It is time to time. So here's a small puppy. Only 3 pictures of my teeth. The status multi Pu puppy, 3 months I was not. That's an age when dogs are handed over that. That is. So the is, is the question by to visit a resale as it's made to for his someone transported the dog from abroad somewhere else to make a quick it's the snow to get something That's where the eu comes in. Anyone buying a dog should know where it came from. Peter Liese, a Christian Democrat is among those championing relevant legislation remiss in there. I we have to stop the dog my promised them central element is every dog must be chipped. Unregistered >> Bad. Most the biggest man who the script. Then a very small chips. The size of a grain of rice. They allowed to dock to be identified and linked to a registered from system should become possible across Europe. Also, you know where the dog comes from can trace it. I for them because you can see a dog that's not chipped. It's a warning sign something like he isn't right. And it's West Mission Act. >> But it's not just an online issue. Buying dogs in pet stores can also be problematic. Peta has proven connections between several dogs sellers in Belgium and dubious breeding farms. Just our investigations have shown that these puppies come from awful facilities in Eastern Europe where dogs are sometimes isolated tied in compartments row after row. Some very young puppies have been given. Medications will. Maybe it's all very questionable. Was as intense as I don't think anyone looking around in pet shops expects that the animals are produced and sold under such conditions. The men portwood in a fur coat them. The calls to action have reached Brussels. Officials. There planning hire requirements for breeders and a ban on the sale of cats and dogs in pet stores. The pet stores lobby group warns that this will only open the door to more illegal trade. Even though there are still obstacles to overcome. And details to clarify. Meanwhile, every putt is optimistic. Then prepared for any implementing the position taken by parliament would be a very big step for animal welfare in Europe. To t-shirts in my will pass the European Parliament member states and the commission must still hammer out a deal. But after years of unchecked cruelty, illegal puppy traders are officially on notice. >> Now here's something for hikers that love being rewarded for their efforts. The Old Forge is a traditional pub in Scotland that offers guests a cozy place to warm their toes by the fire with a pint and your feet will no doubt lead the rest getting to the pub is no easy task. >> It's going to be in I know, hike just for a pint. It kind of guides tourists through the highlands to Scotland's most remote probe along the way they encounter curious Highland, cattle waterfalls, that you can't run from a magnificent blocks. >> a poll in which is lack of h# # and we make way land through the mountains to Nevis, which is a look of heaven. So moving in the right direction. We're moving away from the hellish lock to its haven't. >> The trail leads pasta. Huge rhododendron bushes, pine trees and ferns. These plants love the dunk. Climates which fosters a unique ecosystem, a temperate rain forest. >> And they plan to make a sort of a bridge far linking with this coast to the other coast. So the vision is to re first, Aaron, build up temperate rainforest, which is native to him. >> The Cape Wrath trail and journey across mostly private premises is one of the most spectacular roots in the uk. >> We could have put tonight's one spoke to them. Left trace and sit on snow within sight of a greater private house. Likewise we can will can increase our engine into the mountains. >> Up to 24 kilometers, we finally reach Scotland's most remote pub here in Inverurie home to 130 people. The locals working construction, forestry tourism. The pub is the center of Community Corman has come to relax after a tiring day. >> I came here for 3 weeks in 2007, it's a planting and still ahead. >> Back Jackie Robinson were running the pump. They reminisced about the Wild times. >> television and we didn't have Internet Mobile saloon. They would make up into an entertainment with beds, fire teachers and belly dancers and limber dancers. You look in the pub any move to the n b, something happening. >> Iverson scene and Jackie retired. The locals have been running the pub as a collective for who'd rather not walk here. There's this boat, the Daily Lifeline to the outside world and surely the more comfortable way to reach Scotland's most secluded cove. >> I'll raise a glass to taking the shortcut. Well, that's all from us this Focus on your thanks so much for your company by for now. >> Coming up, your own masks on manatee schools, television. You're watching manatee schools, television. Good news happens here. >> cliche is crowd really got cooking Gemini. Charming, full on affordable. Life like for young people in Portugal's capital list? Wearable ol impractical. Why is this research designing clothes made from mushrooms? >> Well, that more coming up now on your own mat. >> have >> you ever tried sauerkraut unknown standing tradition and German cuisine, especially as a site ahoskie meat dishes. This from this with the food has also inspired a nickname for John Guns in the English-speaking. Well. Did you know that this vegetable is why Germans are called crowds and English lying. >> But sauerkraut, really Germany's favorite really like it, but I only know it from before. >> Has this been I'm not crazy about sauerkraut and I don't need it often position. I love it. It's delicious and healthy self because I don't think of And sauerkraut since I was a kid. Next, we'll show you how sauerkraut is made, what a teen with and of course, how Germans came to be called crowds. But first, let's head to did near the North Sea coast in northern Germany on these 3,000 hectares, 90 million heads of white cabbage are grown a year. That's more cabbages. Then there are Germans. White cabbage is traditionally important because it keeps so well. Many varieties can be stored until the next crop. The following summer farmer cost and the pros organic cabbage. We have in the past. There was no need to transport because everyone grew their own cabbage and their gardens. >> Small towns were supplied from the surrounding area, but these days cabbages ground where it thrives best of into. Yeah, good motion is the largest single cabbage going region in Germany or even wear gold. >> Nearby at the coldest, Sam, you can see how the white cabbage become sauerkraut. The stock is removed and the cabbage is g-rated. Sauerkraut is a product of fermentation and this is how it's done. Salt plays a key part around 2 kilograms for every 200 kilos of raw cabbage. >> Both sides. The office also breaks down the cells and releases the left by the lactic acid bacteria feed on most so they can produce more lactic acid. Me really quickly. And the fermentation process starts. The cabbage looks completely different after just 10 minutes in the mixer. >> It's all the Cabbage now has a completely different consistency. Thought that it's much softer because the cells have broken down. Got. >> But don't think that the sauerkraut is ready yet. It's still just salted cabbage. Once it's packed into jars, the healthy lactic acid, bacteria ferment the cabbage. And takes time. The last one point from here, the charts going to our temperature controlled fermentation room for about 10 after that. The sauerkraut is basically ready thought, but it only tastes really good. Once all the juice has been absorbed back into the cells. Just so we store it in our cold room and then sell it over the next few months. And it cold out. While the sauerkraut ferments. Let's look back. Sauerkraut played an important role for thousands of years. That's because it keeps well and is chalk full of vitamin c? It protected sailors from scurvy and nourished. Soldiers in the first and second World Wars. And this is when Germans were first nicknamed crowds, especially by Americans. On right Baker during World War, One into the military had to be supplied with food. >> So they decided not to ship sauerkraut in jars or cans, but to deliver a dried. So good start. I was going put up. >> Time for the taste test. We just saw Cole, well, food sauerkraut should smell regardless how sexual it should smell fresh. As soon as you open the jar. It's not stale time. Got a whole. >> If it can, boy, it prefers to eat his sauerkraut. Raw. From it out. See what you eat. It raw after fermentation, it still contains all its vitamins and alive. Lactic acid, bacteria, which our bodies like >> But in restaurants, sauerkraut is normally served. Cooked. Come with us to this Berlin restaurant where the sauerkraut arrives and huge cans. Could do. You could eat it from, but we spice it up a little on the Cook's seasons there. Sauerkraut differently. It usually contains onion fat side bacon allspice bay Leaf caraway seeds and a little sugar. This gives the sauerkraut a hearty flavor. Without all of this. It would hardly have any calories and would taste pretty sour. It's late DECEMBER 20 to 30 minutes let it sit for a day or 2 for the flavors to really develop. >> Sauerkraut here is served with potatoes and plenty of So one Germans think. >> a coach, our crowd has a traditional feel to it. I don't think it has made a comeback yet. None of that together and it's all finished. >> You think I'm and it didn't quite think people are eating far less sauerkraut and cabbage gun. Come. Will come back. But it needs a makeover in. That's makes a lot >> Who knows. Maybe Germans will rekindle their love story with sauerkraut. What about you? Do you like it? >> Every year, several million tourists visit the Portuguese capital Lisbon. But for many locals, Lisbon has become almost impossible to afford. Well tonight to grow up. And if that as a young >> My name is 50's. I'm 23 years old and I was born Lisbon. Living here all my life. And I'm gonna show you a day in my life. >> The attrition recently moved to a suburb of Lisbon. She used to live in her parents home in the city center. She can now afford a room of her because her boyfriend was able to buy an inexpensive apartment from an acquaintance. >> Okay. So basically this is a typical Portuguese households. It's a bedroom apartments. Recent see my boyfriend. But and I'm helping renters it because this was not renovated. We thank to the whole things and put all of the furniture. >> The attrition is having breakfast with 2 of her. 3 roommates, one of whom is her boyfriend from Cisco, all are trained actors. They share the kitchen living and bathroom and the house were too. It >> This is also something realized if there's a lot of European households, we choose. The tradition of trying to close up sites police. A lot of people tell me they think it's really weird in Lisbon order for us in a 2 bytes. And it's just we have a lot of sun actually this is ready to take. >> In Portugal, young people move of their parents home at an average age of 29 in Lisbon, in particular. That has to do with the rents rising much faster than the wages. In the afternoon. She has to head to the whole time she's late. But luckily, so is the train. >> Almost all European countries I visited, had public transportation and Portugal. We have a decent amount coverage. We just don't have a decent out of. Trains or buses. So they're not as regular as they be. >> I'm running 20% of Portugal's 15 to 24 year-olds are unemployed. Beatrice works a second job as a tour guide. >> All of the people and there our sailors. >> Her tours last 4 hours. The attrition shows her city mainly to foreign visitors. >> The city is beautiful from the Florida for the sky. Larry secure it sometimes are looking at trends buildings and you beautiful tiled our end and Smart Bull, beautiful fall. Comey's. >> Is always here to doesn't limit her tours to the main sites. She makes effort to put across something of the feeling from lights and husband. The tour puts and stop so visitors can sample Portuguese specialties. Trish a little about their history and the local cuisine and its culture. >> Some. >> I really like to feel that I'm showing my country that I'm telling he street that I'm all seen the way the school then a flight for us because I really like 40's food. And I really like is fun. I love to see I love the food. I just want to keep >> the people does it. Take. >> After dinner, the tour continues through the whole time. The next stops are all of our traditional Portuguese baked goods. >> What to go. >> Trish also talked openly to the visitors about things that concerned her and was the wee her city's changing and mass tourism and foreign investors are pushing out the local people and small businesses. She hopes she'll be able to move back to the city center again some day. >> And nothing against globalization and evolution of times. I just wants the traditions and the things that make unique. In meantime. >> It read herself, makes a living from tourists but she tries to influence developments to impart appreciation for Lisbon's culture to the visitors. She winds up with shots of the cherry. Look, you are a tradition in itself. >> so this was my day in Lisbon >> off to on switch Sullens with a young physicist Albert Einstein. This several years. And when he developed his well famous theory of Relativity, what that would make him a celebrated genius. Ever see this guy. Total superstar of science. It's young Albert Einstein. And I'm sure this looks familiar. The most famous formula in the world. >> And guess what? Einstein came up with that formula right here in the city. Very in a tranquil city with just under 150,000 inhabitants. Therein lies the German-speaking part of the country. Many people think that Syria because the capital of Switzerland, not so Byrne is the seat parliament and government. Today we're exploring burn following in the footsteps Albert Einstein. Where did he live in work? What this his signature formula mean and why is it so famous and how many of these Einstein benches can be found in birds. Don't worry, though, you don't need a physics degree for our little tour. Einstein came to burn in 19 0, 2, at that time. The old town look almost exactly as it does today. It's hardly changed since the 12th century and has been declared a unesco World Heritage site Einstein came to burn in search of a job here at the patent office. He finally found a well paid permanent position. He was 22 years old and already have completed his physics degree. But nobody wanted to hire him as a scientist at the patent office. The genius had to evaluate other people's inventions. If you might like to visit Einstein's apartment. He lived on the second floor of this building from 19. 0, 3, to 19. 0, 5, Along with his first wife me and their son. He climbed the stairs every day after work. A whole book cut from the Einstein Society of shows me the apartment bedroom Kitchen children's room, living room. >> This was Albert intensely looking them off their own. It had no study and yet it was in this apartment that the famous formula was born supported by his wife. Me live. She was a mathematician and Albert could discuss his ideas with her developing them further. In 19, 0, 5 the hour was not Einstein published, not just one but 5 to coats on light matter energy among them was the special theory of Relativity. The Formula Energy equals mass times. The speed of light squared. From 19. 0, 5. Onward. Einstein, Scientific Korea slowly gaining momentum. But the only became a universally known superstar. When you received the Nobel Prize for physics in 1920, Time for a break, my destination is a location called is people. There's also Einstein bench here. Looks to be about in his mid to late 20's. I would guess so. In the age of his years in Bern. The I the scores points for his view. It's home-brewed beer and it's delicious of Think potato pancake typically served with fried bacon. I go for the vegetarian option which is served with acts. Really good. I'm making the shortstop at the University of Bern. Here we find our 3rd Einstein in 19. 0, 8, Einstein rose to the rank of lecturer at the university. You can learn more about Einstein's life story at the Einstein Museum. >> The wall of Narrows introduces you to Einstein's fought. We're just like come from what is in the original? What is a reproduction? What could infinity mean? The dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki. In AUGUST 1945? >> Was a life changing event for him. This museum also talks about the atomic bomb. 8 pretty dark topic what way is? I'm science, Syria for the 2.15 connected to the ball. >> Would the the Formula e Equals? Mc Squared says that even tiny amounts of mass can be converted into huge amounts of energy. So that is the principle behind nuclear fission, which is the basis for death to make bomb. But I signed himself was never directly involved in this program. After the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 19, 45 Einstein was deeply shaken and he was devastated and really regret to the use of mom. Back then he became even stronger advocate for peace and disarmament and he kept them warning the world of the devastating power of nuclear weapons. >> In front of the Einstein Museum, we find the 4th bench dedicated to the superstar, a physics. And this is where our to her aunt's south, whose footsteps should we follow next? Where do you want us to go? Mushroom clothes. >> Sounds unusual. Know, actually, this promising natural material has been under research for several years. French I'm not lot listen, is taking it to the next level. Let's take a Fashion made from living organisms Shogo Sonia is doing just that. She's made this jacket out of fungus. >> And actually quite the s and do of this. It was kind of a big challenge day too. >> I fund is leather is waterproof and biodegradable. Her vision is of an intelligent material that can itself like a living organism. >> more on that later at the Brussels for university, the bioengineer shows us how she creates the organic textiles. >> So this my seems >> So this is basically the only mushroom. It's ready to be harvested. So I just drew, it's on the liquid surface. And now I'm just like staking it out so that we can make in that out of Italy to. >> It all started in this Petri dish in her lab. And every produces the underground root system of the mycelium fungus, which normally grows in the woods. The tiny threads grow and we've themselves together into this artificial leather skin in just 3 weeks. >> I'm always excited too harvest the skin and trying to see take. Then anything different happen from the previous times trying to understand why. And I actually really like this very hands-on parts. Yeah, just. Touching in getting my hands >> She separates the scan from its jelly layer a bit like separating real leather from its fat. The surface has to be even and smooth in order to make clothing out of it. Later. >> I'm treating the skin with some natural products. It's go. Let's roll in order to keep its flexible is just like It falls and it does. It becomes brittle and very dry. And that's the same kind of thing that will happen to the skin. If I don't this product to its, I just wanted to keep its flexible in fish like you could wear life. >> The key word is alive and vision goes even further. Legend. You read your jacket and it has some Norman's units in there that can revive the king the structured way. So they did just repairs the wounds that would be one of our goals. And that's something that is currently being researched. >> Her idea of making clothing and of living fungi has international recognition for fungus. Jacket was exhibited at Milan Design Week in 2025. Introducing her invention to a wider audience. >> It's important to make things that are acidic, a pleasing or that have like a specific aesthetic. So that people's starts thinking, oh, wow, this is a new material that this is how >> it could be used. It could do good. And it's also great evil. >> Professor in is supervising and his project. >> I'm super proud of us and that because it's really where the scientists most into a completely difference other field since which is designed and see was able to really do that transition to bring its were designed exhibit show, which is next for. >> Re known. >> So where does an his boundless motivation come from the young French Nigerian woman knows first-hand how much of Europe's discarded clothing ends up in West African landfills. >> Instead of having to there thing where you produce something that never degrees and then you just end up having it in the landfill. New bio source, it's you use it and then it's buying to grades and gets back to nature. >> At home works on new designs. But getting here wasn't easy. Her parents wanted her to study something serious bioengineering today her creations combines science and fashion. >> That I think about it's super happy of where I have come make very happy to go to work every And that's a very privileged position. And and that's also take advantage of being at the intersection of 2 buildings So defense like biology and design, I get to do some things that are very nation. And that's something that I really love. >> Although her fashion is not yet ready for mass production and a security proves that the future of fashion can be sustainable and innovative as well as stylish. >> What's the most unusual place you'd like to have a meal in a cable cars. Underwater maybe go make who's seen high above the But would you eat in a priest? >> This prison serves gourmet meals not to its inmate, but to patrons of the prison's only high class restaurant.

Many inmates use the opportunity to work in addition to the restaurant has a call center. And at the last workshop and the concept works only about 2% of inmates who learn a trade in Italy's prisons commit another crime as opposed to 70% of the general population of offenders. Project director Sylvia Pawlenty says the restaurant brings people together >> it is not didn't we want. The restaurant to show the customers. That prison people just like back football last that inmates can prove how well able to actually the most of that a little that you. >> Chester has been working. Here is a waiter for 4 years and says he feels like a new man when he puts on his uniform. >> This is Robert de la. I want to be good at this job and I enjoy talking to the patrons, they say, but I want them to enjoy coming here and be satisfied when they leave what it is. But think one thing. >> The gourmet restaurant behind bars is one of a kind in Italy and this usually booked solid after passing through security at the entrance, the patrons are shown to their seats by an inmate in GOD MAY not have any Michelin stars, but it did get a mention in the Michelin guide.

The inmates who have worked here have what it takes for a great head. Start almost every one of the team plans to work and get strong to me after they're released. >> That's it for this edition of your max on our social media channels, you'll find stories from across Europe.

We send it to the 12. I know that during one of the committees and we'll get into that with Sellers that there's probably going to have to be a meeting sometime and workshop after the DECEMBER meeting for the act for for Citizens Financial Audit Committee that we had discussed about that. So we'll get into that in a moment. So if there's any other, I don't think there's anything I saw on here. Of the meeting schedule regular meetings, did anyone else and it kind of issues that they would have a problem that we might need to change. Now, just and we're still good with them. The and the 5 threes. Okay. So we'll have that modified and reset and published ms MS. Oh, sure. All right. >> kind of shy about that.

Then we're on to the next topic on the agenda, which is the workshops. We have been. Before. I got on the board and MR.

Cho to work schedule, to move those workshops to Friday. >> I was not MISTER Gold and MISTER Gold to move into Friday before the year. Okay, I thought, ok, that's fine. But we kept them to accommodate your work schedule. I remember the conversation. I would like to have the discussion to move them back to Thursdays. For several reasons. A lot of people like to take a three-day weekend. And if you're having a meeting on Friday, that's hard to do I like him better on Thursday because then your Tuesday Thursday, you're I wouldn't want to do Tuesday. Thursday, the same week. I think that would put a lot of pressure on the staff funds and the rest of board members. But I just wanted to open it up for discussion to see how everyone thought about that. Anybody i don't have granicus. Oh, Well, I get everything you're saying and I can agree with a lot of it.

So that would be something we've we should we should consider as well because there is a lot that happens. We get lots of invites for school events and things as well. So it's just something consider. >> Anyone else have any comments, MR. MADAM Chair, my only my only request, whatever day it ends up on. Is consistency is that if we pick Thursday's let's to Thursdays, we pick frontal Fridays, but it's just easier for. It's not just easier for me to keep straight my head, but I think it's easier for the public as well. The workshops and so forth yeah. I mean, I think that to MISS Feltz point. It just it seems to me like the matter what they we pick, we're going to run into some conflicts like that. But maybe if we keep them at 09:00am. We can reduce some of those conflicts merger. Think that it's important site, but that's that's just my first Todd, Clever >> okay. I thought it was close enough. But it's like snl skit. Hello, everyone. Welcome So yeah, that's my one request consistency. But you're the chair of the system earlier decision. I mean, I appreciate you asking the board for but ultimately this is this is up to you. So. >> I will leave it MR. Tatum. >> We had a discussion 2 ago about whether it was better for the to have workshops and school board meetings in one week and then have a week kind of all from preparing for things or whether it's. It's more me, it's not the right word is what works better for the stuff. Workshops and meetings and one we can just get them done another next week off to go to your work or out workshop. Meeting workshop meeting you know, I will dress you, Dr resident for that. >> Thank you for that question. MR. Tatum and absolutely we will. We will make whatever the board work with without a problem. Probably personal preference. It would be to not have it in the same week. Does allow more time to to perform other tasks and be in our schools each week. But if that's the PRESIDENT Of the board, we we can make it work. >> So you're saying have one week meeting that a workshop next week spaced out. Don't do too in one week is that we get there. >> rate that works best for the staff MR. Cho, do you have an opinion on this? >> I didn't have race. Thank you very Chair >> yes, I don't really carried away with date is I agree. MISTER Tatum. I just wanted to be as best for the staff. And I also agree with with MISTER Kennedy. Making it consistent thought would be. And I don't particularly. I mean, we can if we're if we're going to do it every other week. So what they say, we have one meeting once a week, whether be a real meeting. >> Or an actual workshop, right? Was that something that was just stated? >> they're my fight right every other week or yet if there was and need to have a workshop because there's not right. Not always threat. Yeah. My thought process would be. If we're going to do it every week, potentially either have a workshop were meeting. >> mall on Tuesdays. Obviously we have our Tuesday night meeting the second one. I put all workshops on Tuesday, mornings at 9 o'clock. That way, every single meetings at Tuesday or you could Tuesday, 10 right to match the meeting that way. Every single meeting. In the If we had workshop Stewart's shops to meetings would be on Tuesday at 10 for Tuesday at 5.30 It's that you don't to worry about Thursday, Friday, whatever. It's the same day every week. Just >> I really never thought about as a being option. >> The city got about Mason County Board of Commissioners does go in that same thing, right? Every Tuesday. >> I kind of like meetings are on Tuesdays. And we all know that if we're going to do it every week. Same day every week, they know the staff knows. We know. >> As long as That would that that would come to fix my concern of having three-day weekend. So I think. That would work for me. DR. Present. How do you feel about chair that that would work, ok? On Tuesday? >> I don't know. Just for the record. Don't know if it would be every week because we don't that. But when we do eat, it would be on thing. >> Okay. So lets some. >> Are going to quick suggestion along Can we talk to present center for? What if we did? Tuesday? The Tuesday, every Tuesday following a regular meeting. Does that just mean Laura's hosting a gender 24 7 yeah. >> That's kind of what we're saying. Yeah. A sickly. And with decent who's in air. >> Right. It would be the assumption that we would have it on every Tuesday at 10:00am. As needed because MAY not have a workshop there, someone so we don't have a workshop. >> Sure, the month. So no, I making the So we have. Instead of calling them as we need them like, right. Let's put them on the Seminole County, right? I agree. And it can ready that Tuesday after. But again, that's just yeah. What a miracle. I think I'm good. Tuesdays at 10:00am. >> And that keeps it consistent with. All of our means to be in the same behind just a different date. >> One thought to have on the phone again productor Bres. And so let's say the Tuesday after Labor Day, the Tuesday Memorial Day, the Tuesday after Columbus Day. I wouldn't want people here on Mondays for for meetings with. They have to be here base, preparing for meetings or, >> we would have our our items published that meant for the public. So preparations should be. >> Or workshops they wouldn't done. Wasn't with them. Having little bit ok as long as from. >> And detail on that. We have our briefings prior to our meetings gender is published days before the meetings actually held. So I don't think that would be necessarily an issue just checking road with Looking for a motion to So just want to one clarification. So but we'll still have the one meeting at Five-thirty. Oh, yeah. Well. Those are meetings or workshops. Yes. I just sure that. So we have 10:00am to 10:00am. You it. Yes. Okay. Essentially. Yes. What would happen right? Senator, but a good at all. Right. For motion to approve workshops to be on to movies, House. I'll second got a motion a And everybody can vote now we're doing hand signals here. Everybody is. Mean, so that is a 5, okay. That'll be great. I think that's going to Productive in my opinion, just like that. >> Ok, now we're going on to item number 3.5, which is committee assignments. And I have been going through those as well guess you all have to. So we'll just start at the top of the list. Everybody got Got it in advance. So. The first one on the list as audit committee, which is now the Citizens Financial. Onyx Committee, c f a c. And Kennedy as a liaison for that. Looking to see if you still want to maintain that. >> Yeah, MADAM Chair, I have a i have no changes for the entire list. >> So how do So just going to put a check the site. Everything you're signed up for it. Okay. All right. Then we'll move on to next one, which is central for Florida. Public schools of Coalition, which is MISTER Tatum. And I'm guessing you're gonna. >> fun with that. And you know, one way to do this might be if anybody wants to change rather than go down the mall, one by one Somebody has something they want to change. But it well. >> going to be making a point as we're going have good with a month to I don't changes Friday. >> And then next is a children's services. Anonymous excellent job with that. So she's going to stay on that. The next one is actually the safe act that the former Safe Act committee that I was liaison. So that committee will now be amended from the list because that's no longer needed. So we'll take that one off. So MISTER Cain is going stay as the auditor selection. Fell to its gonna stay. MISTER Tatum is going stay as fsb, a advocacy committee board member alternate. I'm guessing you both are going stay okay. Next sba investment known as Florida Palms. MISTER Joe, are you still have interest in serving on that? I'm guessing you are still. Yeah, it was it. >> Yeah. That wasn't something that was in the border deal. That was something throughout Ba, Yeah. So yeah, I'm still on that. >> Okay. Those are as called. I don't know how time they has called you. So, ok, need about 4 times a year. Okay. All right. Well, thank you for doing that. And then we get down to the Greater Florida store I'm fine with still serving on dot unless someone with the take over I know there's another committee that the chair typically assigned to. So if somebody wants to take that role, I don't mind them doing that. I don't mind taking it. If you want to do your other assignment. >> So okay, that's fine. All right. Lets anybody else MR. Tatum, did you want to do the greater distortion as well? Are you want to stay with what you She's willing to take it. >> That's different than the central Florida. Yes, the central Florida right? If you like that, okay. It. Think ok, so what that must Felton on that >> Okay. And then you're going to a business I recommend at all board members at 10th out at least one just pretty informational. Enjoyed it >> legislative liaison, that one is MR. Cho to myself. And I wanted to get MR. Chose feedback on what his position is on that committee. If he wants to remain the liaison in my as alternate. Or did he want to flip those 2 roles? >> You could get you can take that. >> All right. So we'll flip that to the chair and Danube and the alternate. If anyone else I'm fine to be dealt in Anybody else wants to be the ultimate, but I'm fine with that. >> Okay. For alternate will And then all take over as chair. Okay. And then the chamber. Manatee Chamber of Commerce. That one also is typically held by the chair. I didn't know how you felt about that one as well. Tell you think about me personally. Yeah, to me. >> Yes, I mean, you're the chair. So you can actually do what you want to do. I would enjoy staying on the chamber. I've been on it, you know, before be on the board. But it doesn't completely up to you. If that's something that you would like. >> MADAM Sure, I sure that's the question before the meeting. But I believe. MR. Cho, you MAY know, but I believe it's in the chambers bylaws that this is held by the chair of the school board. I'm not positive on that. But >> there are 2 that I think that are in the bylaws of the of those organizations and the chamber. And Manatee Education Foundation. >> So I don't know. I don't look into that the committee for the Chamber. Okay. But the last Education Foundation meeting they did address that. It is not in their bylaws. That has to be chair, but I don't know about the Chamber of Commerce. >> Yeah. And Chad, that that might something up through It MAY not be chamber bylaws. It MAY just that has always been our custom just kind of the way our end, not their bylaws. So we could maybe circle back on that one. From. Yeah, I whatever you want whenever you want to get near the chair, ultimately, sir. >> would actually like to do that one round to get that exposure to and then I wouldn't mind if >> if they have. >> This one says it should be held by the chair. But again, MISTER Kennedy, do you think? That was in the bylaws that they had to have the chair on that committee, MR. Cho, do you know that? Because from what MISTER Kennedy that is something that is something that was brought up last meeting last week at the m e s. >> Board meeting and they said it was not in their bottles. >> Okay. So we can strike that from the committee calendar that is not held by the board chair. And I don't mind. MISTER Cho taking remaining that unless other numbers are interested in that. I'm sorry for which one for that. I jumped down. I'm sorry that in MAY. Manage Education foundation, that one's the one that says should be held by the chair. So MISTER Cho remain there and I will go to the Manatee Chamber. Ok? I'm the board of governors at the g c. How does MISTER Tatum? He said he's willing to stay on the Alice. Someone else wants >> very memorable seats for their meetings. There. >> Not >> If you sometimes it's top of north. Study from the your urine how to fight for that And the school health advisory is next. And is held by Ms Skelton. And I think she can continue on with that. >> Value adjustment board. That is one that I enjoy doing. So I will remain there matter of fact, just got an invite to do a special meeting for the 8th of DECEMBER with MISTER Tatum. Be an alternate. Anyone else interested in that committee at all? If you're enjoying it, I enjoy That's a lot of interest reading. Okay. And then MISTER Trump's on that one. The Fair Board is misspelled. 10. She's actually going to be judging some contest. Yes, they is doing their worst. >> There are regional. Contest. So I'm going to Thursday's activity because I'm going to be judging. They're going month. That's good. That's good work for the community and then a liaison. First. It and cybersecurity is MISTER Kennedy. And then I was going to ask you about MR. Kennedy, local control in board. That was one that they reached out to me. My first became a board member and I didn't know getting feedback on how that's going on and committed. Frankly, I've missed the past 2. >> But is this something you're interested in the no, no, no, no. I was just asking your feedback on no occupant them. Yeah. I mean, it's no, I don't know. You can. No number, no number. But they reached out and I thought was a good I think MR. Wareing has gone up from time for transportation. Know that I'm happy to get. So I don't think we really need vote on that. And just to work, I don't. Coming up, it comes up. It comes up next month, right? Right. >> All right. So world, they're all good there. >> Ok, so on agenda, we are going to Reis recess the re or mating so we can go into school board leasing court. So we are re recess for. That long. >> We >> are going right into the leasing court saw that in. And I am going to read a statement. Under the articles of incorporation for the munchies school board leasing court.

Cho. >> Yeah, congratulations. Chair for vice chair Tatum and everybody have a happy Thanksgiving we'll see Austin. MR. Tait. >> To phase one short one a little bit longer. There's a good article in The Wall Street Journal to the and it's about to its titled Wife or Can't Find Mechanics and the ceo for does quoted and saying specifically, I can't fill 5,000 mechanic jobs that pay $120,000 a year. And that's the only 114,000 Americans in their 20's completa vocational programs. And the first 10 months of the year compared to 1.0, 2, 4 million graduated from a four-year college. This interesting right it's amazing to something about were, you know, the school board, how we're looking at what we're talking to our students about as setting them up to leave high school. You know. Something up. So since the night is young. I did. So we have new leadership. I did want to tell us a little a little about little incident that happened a couple weeks ago. I was riding my bike and it ties into safety to leave it out some time. Some ride my bike right on this multi-use path in our neighborhood. And it's It's on of multi-use path by road. No houses there. Couple lakes. That's kind of a mile and how long the speed limit to 25. But people like to use it as a racetrack. 55, 60 miles an hour right? Anyway, it's 10 o'clock in the morning and I'm writing my bike down the road and those later front of me and she's got a dog. And so, you know, be in a plain nice person. I try to be I ring my little being by >> Right. And I slow down move off to the right. And go by are really slow. And she goes. She's kind of upset she goes g's. Won't you ride your bike down the road? And I thought to myself, well, I can use this multi-use bike. That's a multi-use bike path. And so I said, well, ma'am, I said. It's a multi-use path. You can walk your dog. You can ride your bike. It's 10 feet wide. We all use that. She goes with the bike path on the road. And looked over in the road and I said, no, there's no, there's not a bike. That's because look, there's an image right there on the road. There's a bike ride in the runway. >> Yes, ma'am. I said that the numbers to tell drivers that bikes might use this robot. There's there's not a bike path. All right. You know, the 4, 5, 4, 5 or what? And so. So what's happening here, right? As we're getting in, we both pull out of the item, right highway. We start going back and forth like 30 seconds icon, right was not about yes, there is a bike that where there's an image like that, you know, so we're both just accelerating down the I'm right road and going back and forth going back and forth on 4th. And so so at one point i said, I said, you know, mom, I said you're just why are you so angry about this? You're really overreacting. I did the right thing. I I just slow down or read my bell and moved off to the right and I'm sorry, but I did the right thing. And she says. She goes well, you know, you couldn't use your voice and then waited to get some type of verbal confirmation or visual confirmation. So now I have a decision to All right. We're both going down the I'm right highway fast as we can go and work celery, right? I'm right. You're right. I'm right. You're right. But just over here on the flickering as a little light. And it's an exit sign and it says how could it be helpful? But it's barely over record is barely it right. But at moment, I have a decision to make because what she just did is she just gave me some feedback. It wasn't nice. And she said in the meantime, boys, but as always like to say, feedback is a gift right? So I thought about that for a second. And I said. Celtic, the So now on the how to be helpful road and normally they are bike lane on that. Where there's there's there's not a bike lane on that are going to find out. So. So when you get on that road, you know you there's a lot of times it's probably just best to keep on driving and not engage. But we were already kind of engage, right? So I said, well, again, I said will why? Why are you so angry? And she said, because I'm afraid that you're going to scare my dog. My dog will run out in front of you. So were on how to be helpful road. So maybe I just just engage and I go on other hand, I got feedback. What are they going to do with it? And remember, you know, the 3 questions I'd like to ask in these situations are how could I be? What am I doing to make things more difficult? Huckabee helpful and not going to check in with you. So her feedback basically answers the first 2 questions, which is number one. What are you doing to make things more difficult? You're not giving me adequate notice that you're coming up behind me and scaring me and maybe my dog. Number 2 is how could I be different as well? MAY be she's hard of hearing. She can hear my bell. So she wants my voice and she wants me to make sure that she waves her hand or something. So I thought. I So all right. Move on to that. I can I can do better right? I'll be better all use my voice on make sure that I see something from you and all, you know, I'll be better better. So now we've kind of slowdown right shoes. She's pulled off onto the maybe maybe how to be helpful highway and on the same thing, right? So we're just kind of cruising along. But it's still kind of tense. There's this kind of, you know, how those kind of situations go. And so I'm getting ready to get back on my bike and put my petals on the bike. And she looks at me and she says. I'm sorry, I apologize. So it's okay. Ma'am, listen. I'm sorry. I apologize. And I what a difference it made. The take. The exit. On to the how to be help Not only that. We kind of resolve the situation, but when we both got up and got on it. I don't know leaving lady's name out of it. But after what name color bar right? I don't know the bar but our friends a bar. But I live in same neighborhood. At least we're not enemies. And and the safety of bring it back around the safety thing is maybe just maybe it is a little safer in my neighborhood now because I'm not going to scare the next time ago bar I know what to do. And as we go into the holiday season and with the new leadership that we have row leaders to some degree. But, you know, I just I just wanted to. Tell that story because it's just such a great example. If we if we can get off the highway and bomb right and take the exit. And trust me, I was on. I mean, I was going fast down it right. Was perfectly obvious that there was no bike lane on the throat because there wasn't. But so here's the interesting about this. Number one of right in 3 ways. Number one is I was right. There's no bike Number 2 I was right that she was overreacting because you're really was. And number 3, I was right because I did my part. I tried. Rang my bell and slowed down. And even when we think even when we know we're right, there's still might be a way. That we could be more helpful. So I appreciate you letting me. Maybe scratch my teacher. That what you want, you know, but I just think I just wanted to remind us that this, which is the leadership reorganization being as we go into the next year and we go out there and we start being leaders, everybody in this room is a senior leader that we feel us ourselves accelerating down right road. And we know what that's like because things get tense and our drilling goes up and our voice goes up. Look for that exit. How can it be helpful? Get on it. Sometimes we just disengaged the other times past the 3 questions, by the way, the we'll check in with their is next time I see here. Here's what get a response. And then if she doesn't get care that I know I'm doing the right thing. That's all I've said about that. Thank you for your words of wisdom. Thank you, MADAM. That means friendly tender to the touch >> That's all I don't really have a whole lot. To say other than thank you, Lord, for your confidence in me to lead his chair. I look forward to working directly with the superintendent more closely than I have. And I don't know how much closer contest since you've been here. But I'm looking forward to it. I think got a lot of good things going and our district and I want again remind anyone is going to question the redistricting, which is rezoned, which is yours. Child might be going to a new school and code. If you have to have that breakdown to look at our district website and understand what's going on behind that. Now before that calendars are set, which is coming up next month. >> Other than that, I think >> We're going adjourn meeting
