The proposed agreement includes a 2% salary schedule increase, asks the district pay 90% of the staff member's CalPERS contribution, and asks the professional growth stipend be increased from $8 to $10 per unit.

Randy Kenyon will present bids for the Egan Roof Project and ask that the board Award Bids to most of the contractors.  This an action item and his presentation can be found under agenda item I.4.  Most bids were in line with the estimates proposed to the board when the project was approved.  One part of the project (glass work) will not be brought for approval as the bids submitted were 8x the estimate and it is believed the scope of the project was misunderstood by the contractors.
