Mr. Tarver said his intention is to say that it is clear the District needs to solve the <br />high school situation and a third high school is needed. He understands what is in <br />progress and how long it will take, but he wants a solution to the high school issue as <br />soon as possible. If Council wants a general motion to solve the high school <br />overcrowding as soon as possible, fine; but he will send a letter stating his comments as <br />an individual. <br /> <br /> Ms. Dennis indicated she supported the concept of a third high school, but there <br />are a variety of options for that regarding size, etc. The Council need not be so specific at <br />this time. <br /> <br /> Ms. Michelotti read a section of the report that clearly states there is a <br />consideration for a third high school. The School Board is now working with the <br />community and she felt the Board should continue with that process. <br /> <br /> Ms. Ayala said she would like all the facts of the different scenarios for handling <br />the high school. Last year there was $4.3 million in the cash flow chart for the year 2000. <br />That amount was moved. The need is definitely there and she felt it was up to the <br />citizens to lobby the School Board for a solution and she felt the people would also like <br />to see the facts before making a decision. The School Board has said it does not want to <br />have campuses of 2500 it has set up a committee to get alternatives. <br /> <br /> It was moved by Mr. Tarver, seconded by Ms. Michelotti, to express <br />Council's support of the great strides that have been made by the School District to <br />form a committee concerning the high school expansion and the Council urges the <br />School Board to solve the high school expansion/overcrowding problems as soon as <br />possible. <br /> <br />The roll call vote was as follows: <br />AYES: Councilmembers - Ayala, Dennis, Michelotti, Pico, and Mayor Tarver <br />NOES: None <br />ABSENT: None <br />ABSTAIN: None <br /> <br />5.
