check out for approval to purchase arms and hands hang Browns make it to Lucy oh yes sir yes sir so this is a request for approval to issue a month-to-month purchase order to maintain the grounds at the old Lucy school so contract expires on March 30th of this year this contract was issued after the demolition of the school at the March 16th board meeting there was a request by remember to place this contract on the same schedule as the other regular ground name is that we have that current contract does not end until August 19th and so what we're requesting is approval to have a month-to-month for this until we get to the internet it said that are we did a maintenance G even if it doesn't expire until 8:19 because this is a different contract did the ground maintenance on the right this this contract was execute after the demolition of the property and sell this is a different contract and so in order to get us to the point where we can have it moved into the other one that's why we need to we have one for General ground maintenance this is a standard I tried to understand but I thought maybe I'm not clear Toby I'm just reading what it do you know what I'm saying is to keep the ground until 2024 that was grounded so what what is this this is ground payments for that particular property it was it was not in the same contract with the general ground maintenance contract that was executed yes or no correct does not include I didn't get all of that. Mister Car Wash Frenchy's Dairy at 7 k how to advertise for temporary staffing service for the upcoming school year teachers clerks are professionals and food Tech good afternoon board you guys piano. I just had a concern it says request tool for every time for temporary staffing services which is an all-cash considered as a proper noun a Google there's no such company name that song temporary staffing services are we considering if we all what amount of looking at to pay the food it does say Clark that's listed but miss earlier that Kelly Services did not provide support so I just wonder why I wasn't even listed in item k now the Seattle resident again I guess my concern was with the services being provided if the vendor is providing a service and I'm soon we talked to Kelly Services and that was giving earlier about the number of 82 status Cruces ask are we looking at the quality of the service if you get it Dracula green slaughterhouses be there Friday night but we also look at the quality of the contra are we looking at not just airport. Showing up for the job in finding a surface that I have been looking at it I just what record did you have to pay browser is there a soul stated before Kelly Services for this this contract expires on September 28th of this year one of the I guess a little bit of background and I've been able to do some research on this is that this has gone or they have been a request for our peace before and there have been some options for competitive pricing to answer the question volume Services Iris Lee when we do require are Artis as we are evaluating you think that we would do just as general due diligence is to find out what other districts they may be servicing and try to find out if I'm still at the station in those areas volume equation I guess I'll go boom song by AMPM I'm looking at the pricing and it says that they provide. professionals daily clerical Uniform service daily princetonian yes right that's what we've been informed is that there were outside of the daily teachers that the custodial Services as well as some of the other ones that we have this week the custodian today is it a game we are currently in clerical along with food service we have a little circle position so I'm not sure about that as far as for the renewal was custodians we have not in service custodians in a couple years now that is something that we conduct Kelly Service it just we would have to rebuild ourselves pool to be able to have employees to cover those positions that we currently do cover we are not contracted to it's something that service die in a couple years we would be selling our stuff looking for that position my I guess my question is just prices Kelly Services pricing right now but we wanted get the best price for the best. question is why we only have those for service types list and I meant item K and then a separate agenda item we were asked to look at maintenance workers custodian lunch time Hawaii okay I guess my request was being I can make it this morning I've needed everyone got word answers show me one here and one there and another one here why is it not a comprehensive list we we can we can experience over the list make you more comprehensive if that is the question replay song that's the breakfast then we can certainly. how many you can give us not if the contract offer different things so if we only have one for bus drivers and one for lunch that you can't cross over and save it just comes not deserve everything else but music delivery need to look at potentially to comprehensive service providers if we wanted to do that suggestion Neil Diamond advertising week you can make that recommendation once we did you come back at Tom to make a substitute motion that we approve to advertise for temporary services for the upcoming school year with a comprehensive list of all missions that should thankfully need a substitute filling positions in person can I provide so it depends on how we write the request so we write the request an itemized it for all of the different positions the company would have to respond to all of them I do want to just as a note say that any comprehensive list we come up with would not include bus drivers typically just know there aren't any companies that provide that but also we under the approval of the last war at built-ins of substitute drivers in there until they would not include in a year and so did to say you know they must have five of the 10 can we can we can we can work with the language where it would expand the number of companies that could be qualified come in company a get the pricing for this group, TV has pricing for that way makes half a day but at least if we get it all together we know what was going to happen we do with t-shirts the awards and the incentive so DSS what are we doing you can Service news Clerks looking at the prices Saudi took this the pricing that you have in front of you is from the records that I have we were able to get from the last time you did the RV so they made out of who do the Indians play today I am beautiful because intelligent what's the trenches fish for sale yes I have eight years in 3 oz health insurance can you call me back TSO this request is being made because there is Desire by the leadership to be able to address I advertise again to evaluate options for competitive pricing for a health insurance broker now there's been some conversation of much conversation it has been here about this with the health insurance committed and so at this time so I haven't seen or handled any rfqs on this before but it is a desire to have his reevaluate I would have to refer to health insurance committee on that my understanding is that he just went to a contract for other aspects of our insurance so minor saying not
