- This would be the time and place for the President to announce that the public hearing is open for comments or questions regarding the proposed 2024-2025 Proposed Property Tax Levy.
- 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

We are recommending Communication Innovators. Communication Innovators looks considerably higher, but they quoted a new camera server which we should look at doing. If you remove that they are only around $800 more. GWAEA prefers working with Communication Innovators as a vendor.
Interconnex bid a different solution which is cloud based, but didn't provide ongoing costs which you would have with a cloud system. They also did not provide any information on tying in the door management which the Genatec system the other vendors bid does handle.
