Vote:
Unanimous to approve.
E. Financial
Items:
1. Monthly Financial
Update**
The statement was questioned under Year-To-Date Budget Report that read,
“We will have some funds to offset the Athletic and Article 31 unbudgeted
increases”. (Appendix A) More
specifics were requested. Using this money to purchase buses was also
questioned.
It was pointed out that there is a policy that requires
specific approval of this body to spend money from one account for the purpose
of another account. Don DeFedele will review the policy.
It was explained that the Article 31 increase is
restricted funds. We received an increase in revenue from the state and that was
restricted. That money must go to
the schools. We have no choice in how it is spent and no vote is required. Article 31 is part of state aid and part
of the 117 general fund. This is simply information in this report. There is not a request to go out to bid
for buses. If the
money holds true by the end of the year, it is a
suggestion to buy buses. This will
be a School Committee decision.
This is to inform the Committee that we might go out to bid just in case,
because by the end of the year it will be too late to go to bid. The intent was to keep the Committee
informed.
There was a concern with the deficit in the cafeteria
fund and a concern that if the enterprise fund has a deficit it must be reported
to the Attorney General.
The last
page of the deficit report states that if you have a deficit in an area that
will cause a deficit in the school fund it must be reported. There is enough money to cover the
cafeteria fund and it will not cause a deficit in the school fund. This was discussed with Cindy Olobri and
she agreed that there is no need to report it since there will not be a deficit
in the school fund.
A list was
requested of where the money would be taken from to cover the cafeteria deficit.
The Committee was referred to the first page of the year-to-date budget report
where it was explained in paragraph two and paragraph four of the Monthly
Financial Update.
Motion was
made by Denise Coppa to approve the financial update. Seconded by Janice
DeFrances.
Vote: Unanimous to approve 7 to

END OF CONSENT
AGENDA
IV. Unfinished
Business
(For Discussion and
Action)
A.
2006-2007 School
Budget:
Don
DeFedele apologized for not attending the joint meeting with the Town Council.
He was working that night.
Before that meeting, Mr. DeFedele had requested that Dr.
Halley put a list together of suggestions for budget discussions. That was the
origin of the document that was submitted to the School Committee. Mr. DeFedele
apologized for not being able to explain that at the joint meeting with the Town
Council. It was requested that signatures be put on submitted documents in the
future.
Dr.
Halley had five suggestions that would bring the budget into compliance with the
Town Council’s cap. (Appendix B) He
also provided the School Committee with a motion to request an exemption from
the cap.
Item
number two was referred to which would reduce the funding for the increase in
retirement contributions. This year the Governor’s budget includes money to help
offset the pension increase. This is an item in which we could request the Town
Council to exempt from our spending cap. If this money
comes in after our budget is passed it won’t come into our budget to offset this
expense. Our budget will already be
passed before the General Assembly passes their budget.
If
the Town Council exempts this money from the cap, it would give us another half
million dollars and we wouldn’t have to cut other items.
Right
now there is $11,200,000 in state aid to education. If it comes in at $11,700,000 it will not
be in our FY 07 operating budget.
Mr. DeFedele asked audience member Paul Dion if this was
correct.
Mr.
Dion stated that the $500,000.00 is not a guarantee from the state. It would not
go into the surplus account, it would go into the school
budget.
It
was stated that the town has already put this money into their budget. The Town has reduced the tax impact by
that money. If the School Committee asks the town to exempt this money, or if it
comes in restricted, it will come to us.
Otherwise, it will be used to offset the tax
dollar.
It
was pointed out that the town has already included what the Governor’s budget
states. Our state aid is listed at $11,717,000 in the town
budget.
Mr.
Dion cautioned about the $547,000.00 of revenue. He was unaware that the Council
had estimated that as part of revenue.
If the money does not come in as state aid – for example if it went
directly into the pension fund – the money would not show in the school
coffers. The Town would have to come up with
$11,700,000 that they allocated.
They cannot retract the money after the fact. Mr. Dion suggested that the Committee
look at this item and request an exemption from the cap.
It
was noted that the problem is that we are trying to meet a cap that doesn’t
cover our fixed costs. We have fixed costs that equal
5.18%.
A
suggestion was made to cut the Special Ed decrease in
half.
It
was explained that this figure is reasonable and we expect the savings will be
higher than the $185,000 decrease that is recommended. The line item is now $1.2
million and this would be reducing it to a little over $1
million.
Mr.
Mudge prepared his own set of budget documents. Mr. DeFedele asked him again
that when he was going to submit documents to do so before the meeting so that
the Committee could have the opportunity to review them. Mr. Mudge stated that he had finished
them late today.
Recess was taken at 8:35 PM
Meeting resumed at 8:50 PM
Don
DeFedele stated that at the joint meeting, the Town Council was not confident
that an exemption request came directly from the School Committee. He wanted to
honor what the Town Council wanted.
Motion was
made by Don DeFedele to request an exemption from the cap for the increase in
spending as a result of retirement contributions for professional personnel that
are being supported by increases in state aid to education. Seconded by Barry
Martasian.
It
was stated that the Town Council has already included the $500,000.00 in the
budget and this will have to come out of taxpayers’ money. More specifics on our expenditures were
requested.
It
was asked that if we request the exemption, will it raise the tax
rate.
It
was explained that right now the state aid to education is being used to reduce
the tax rate by 15˘. On page one of the Town budget it states that the increase
in the municipal budget is 6.6% and the increase in the school budget is 4.7%
which includes an increase in the capital reserve fund.
In
order for the Town to balance their budget to 4.6% they are using the debt
service which is mostly school money –the high school bond money. The debt
service was previously used for operational costs. We gave this back to the Town
with the understanding that they would give it back to the capital reserve fund.
This
year the town has a 6.6% increase in their budget which is 2% above the cap they
imposed. The Town took a 5% decrease in the capital improvement fund which
reduced this fund by $278,000.00.
They moved this money to the municipal fund. The Town budget states that the tax rate
per thousand is 21˘ on the municipal side 37˘ on the school side and 2˘ for the
increase in debt service. The money appropriated for the high school is being
used to lower the tax rate. State aid for retirement is actually going to the
town.
It
was noted that according to the Town budget on page 153, the only ones that was
asked to reduce the budget were the schools and it makes sense to ask the Town
Council for an exemption.
We
are only asking the Town Council to fund our fixed costs.
Motion was
made by Denise Coppa to curtail debate on the subject of requesting an
exemption. Seconded by Janice DeFrances.

Melvoid Benson stated that the reason she voted no was
because she wanted more information.
Don
DeFedele stated that he asked before taking the vote if there was any discussion
and there was none requested.
Motion was
made by Don DeFedele to reduce the funding for health care insurance by $250,000
for the last third of 2007.
Seconded by Janice DeFrances.
Bill
Mudge asked legal counsel to look at who signs the health care contract– the
Town Council or the School Committee.
There
was concern that next year we could have a deficit of $250,000.00 if we don’t
budget for this item.
It
was explained that this was a contingency to pay for health care during the last
months of the contract if there is an increase. There is an assumption that this cost
could remain the same. Competition between health care providers could force no
increase in costs.

Motion passes
5 to 1.
It
was asked if kindergarten classes at Davisville Elementary were covered by a
grant.
The
increase in kindergarten is due to additional classes that were added this year.
The Committee added two kindergarten classes and 8.8 teachers. The grant money covers two half-day
kindergarten classes. The two
additional kindergarten teachers are out of the 8.8 teachers. They were added because of the student
population and were approved by the Committee in
September.
Bill
Mudge stated the Davisville Elementary had $102,000 budgeted for kindergarten in
2005. This year there is
$289,000.
Denise Coppa asked Mr. Mudge to show the Committee where
that was in the budget. She wanted
verification in the budget.
It
was stated that Mr. Mudge was combining grant money with the general
fund.
Mr.
Mudge loudly denied that statement as a lie and said that the grant account has
another $80,000 in it.
Don
DeFedele suggested that Mr. Mudge reread the ground rules because he had
violated at least a half a dozen of them tonight.
Recessed was taken at 9:40 PM
Meeting resumed at 9:50 PM
Motion was
made by Denise Coppa to reduce the funding for increased retirement
contributions by $541,274.00 to $0. Seconded by Janice DeFrances.

Motion was
made by Don DeFedele to decrease the principals’ compensation as recommended by
the Superintendent in this budget by $48,000.00. Seconded by Denise Coppa.
It
was noted that we have to stay competitive in this market. The principals’
compensation can be phased in over two years.
Renee
Cockerill stated that she considered the principals valued employees and she
appreciates their work, but she doesn’t see the value of them being full time
employees. There is no benefit to
students. She would like to be able
to support this increase, the principles deserve it, but when we are cutting
programs for kids she can’t justify it.
Bill
Mudge felt that there is not enough time to consider this. The principals didn’t
come in with a packet to present to the School Committee, the Superintendent did
it. They are requesting many other
benefits in their policy that haven’t been agreed on and they would only be
working five extra days.
Bill
Daly corrected that statement – the principals would be working fourteen days
extra each year.
Janice DeFrances noted that there are two issues
here. Number one is a salary
increase over a two year span. This is addressing the concerns of a high rate of
10-12% increase. Number two is the principals policy which the Committee has not
had a chance to reviewed thoroughly yet.
The decrease will be cutting in half what was originally talked about.
This is not out of reach for administrators. In comparing salaries across this state
this is a reasonable request.
Bill
Mudge stated that the Committee would be making a decision without knowing other
information. He would like to see
the policy revised and suggested postponing the decision for a
year.
Mrs.
Benson stated that we’re voting to ask the Town Council for more money. She
feels the principals don’t make enough, but we just keep spending and we are not
showing anything to justify to the Town Council why they should grant our
exemption. She suggested coming up with the all of the administrative salaries,
including Dr. Halley, before making any decision.
Amendment to
the motion was made by Don DeFedele to decrease the principals’ compensation as
submitted by the Superintendent in this budget. Seconded by Denise
Coppa.

Don
DeFedele explained that a vote of yes on this main motion would give the

be giving them this raise.

DeFrances.

approve 6 to 1 with Bill Mudge voting no.
Public
Comments:
Paul
Dion commented that if you voted against the principals raises you voted for
giving them $98,000.00. It was
never stated what the baseline was.
If the baseline was the Superintendent’s proposal, a no vote meant giving
them $98,000.00, and a yes vote meant giving them a $50,000.00
raise.
Mr.
Dion felt that it is not fiscally prudent to have no health care increase
budgeted. Most of the saving this year was due to administrative efficiencies on
the part of United Health. He felt
we will have an increase next year. The state budget uses 7% as a possible
increase.
He
feels the $250,000.00 decrease is a mistake. Mr. Dion felt by decreasing 8.8
teachers there was no contingency left for teachers.
In
reducing $185,000.00 from special education, the worst case scenario would be
two students moving into the district with the highest cost possible which would
eat up that cost.
It
seems that the Committee has made $1,360,981 in reductions that are not really
reductions – only budget line reductions.
There
have been seven to ten FTEs added in this budget. The governor doesn’t do
pension reform to add FTEs.
Kathleen Brown asked for clarity concerning the middle
school foreign language report. Mrs. Brown asked if it will be moved to another
agenda. Mr. DeFedele replied yes, that it would be talked
about.
Doug
Roth stated that the move to exempt the retirement cost was the right thing to
do. Being capped is a town wide issue.
We have to make sure that all the town mechanisms are fairly
administered. If the Town is
accessing school funds by dipping into debt service, the Committee can make a
case that all, or at least 60%, are school dollars and you have the right to
them. He was not saying that the
bottom line has to be increased, but the Town has to be held to task. Those are school dollars and they are
not going away. You have to fix
those funding mechanisms. Only the school and library have hit the cap, not the
Town and we all need to fight for this.
Melvoid Benson referred to that sheet that was passed
out at the joint meeting with the Town Council. She questioned why some of the
town items had a 16% increase and the school expenses were required to be kept
down. State aid is supposed to be used to reduce the tax rate except for aid to
education. When money comes in after the budget is approved it should be saved
for next year.
Renee
Cockerill felt that the vote concerning the principals was confusing and she
still was not quite sure about it. She cannot support raises and adding
administrators when we’re cutting programs for children and telling taxpayers
that we are unable t o provide a quality education for children because we don’t
have money when we are adding salaries and possible positions. Mrs. Cockerill does not see that we are
in a position to add things when we haven’t determined what we have to take away
yet.
Mr.
Mudge concurred with Mrs. Cockerill.
Denise Coppa stated that there is a list of items in the
budget to still look at and there are still areas to move around. The Committee is not done
yet.
Don
DeFedele stated that he became a School Committee member to fight for education.
In previous years, the budget has become about cutting services to students. He
feels that the cuts made this year did not impact the students. He was looking for ways to meet the
budget cap for the Town Council and taxpayers as well as providing the best
education that we can. Education is
not a stagnant issue – it changes year to year. There are new initiatives and mandates
that have to be met. There are
challenges that our teachers, principals and administrators face every day and
they need the support of the School Committee to do that job. He stated that he will continue to fight
for education for our students in this district. If he can cut things that don’t affect
students, that is what he will do.
Meeting adjourned at 10:40pm.
Respectfully submitted,
