On behalf of fellow Board members, at this time I would like to invite any member of the audience (who have contacted the Superintendent at least five days before this meeting) to speak with comments about items of interest or concern that do not appear on tonight’s agenda. Please begin by stating your name and address. It would be appreciated if you would limit your comments to 5 minutes so we can keep the meeting moving in a timely fashion and allow others an opportunity to address other issues of importance to them. We ask you to remember that Iowa law prohibits us from discussing specific employees or their job performance. It is important to remember that any statements made can jeopardize the Board and any future action that could be taken relating to personnel by the Board and jeopardize the individual making the statement. Any concerns relating to personnel must be taken to administration and under law the Board only acts on recommendations from administration. Thanks for your support of our school district.

- Once all comments have been heard, the President will announce that the hearing is closed.
- At our February meeting we provided you with three options for the tax levy- 2.5% which is the Governor's recommendation, 3% which is the recommendation from the House and 0% which is a possibility if the legislature does not get a decision made.
- We posted the Property tax levy notice at 0% because a decision had not yet been made at the state level and the only option we have as a district between the first and second public hearings is to lower the levy rate so we went with the option that has the highest rate to start with.
- I provided a copy of the Proposed Property Tax Notice as Exhibit #1
