The meeting was called to order by President Loeb. The
Board discussed the attendance records and appointments of
the Board Members.
After reviewing the January 20, 1999, minutes Ms. Bazar
moved the minutes be approved, Mr. Valencia seconded, and
the motion carried.
Mr. Loeb called for subcommittee reports. Ms. Eldridge
reported on the street lighting project. Mr. Loeb told the
Board that he received a call from Mr. Ortiz, CCISD, on the
School/Police Partnership. Mr. Ortiz believes he submitted
a detailed proposal of what CCISD plans to do, but that
document has not been located. Ms. Eldridge said what she
received from CCISD is the contract. Mr. Loeb said he would
contact Mr. Ortiz and request another copy of the detailed
proposal.
Mr. Bray reported to the Board on attendance policies and
bylaws. He distributed a brief paragraph that the Board
might consider adopting on attendance. Mr. Loeb asked him
if the Board terms end automatically when the term of the
Council Member who appointed them ends, even if that
particular Council Member is reelected. Mr. Bray said that
the term is concurrent with the term of the member of the
governing body that appointed the director. Mr. Valencia

moved that the paragraph that Mr. Bray presented to the
Board become policy stating, "Two consecutive absences from
regularly scheduled meetings on the part of a director shall
be promptly reported to the City Council Member who
appointed that director. For purposes of this procedure,
absence shall mean the absence of both the director and the
director's designated alternate", Mr. Kinnison seconded, and
the motion carried.
Mr. Loeb suggested that an item be added to the agenda:
Review of Expenditures on District Funds.
Mr. Bray agreed to investigate whether the Board can have
their own set of bylaws and operating procedures.
Mr. Loeb reported on the Juvenile Assessment Center stating
that Paige Dinn will have a consultant available April 1 and
2 and will be meeting with several people including Mr. Loeb
and Mr. Kinnison. Ms. Eldridge said they will be at the
Police Department April 1 to meet with Chief Alvarez and
other individuals involved in the process.
Ms. Eldridge said that the project update was mailed with
the utility bills. It will also be in the Caller-Times
within the next two weeks.
Adel Rowland said that a financial report was not available
for the Board today but would be mailed with the minutes.
Ms. Eldridge told the Board that she will send them, before
the next meeting, a draft of the year two budget. The
District has to adopt a budget by June 2 and submit it to
the City Council.
Mr. Loeb said Human Resources is ready to advertise the
position of District Administrator. After extensive
discussion, the Board decided to let the City Council make
the decision on this position.
Mr. Valencia suggested that the Board schedule one of their
meetings at the La Raza facility. The suggestion will be
discussed at a future meeting once any new members are
seated.
The next meeting was tentatively scheduled for April 21,
1999.
There being no further business, the meeting adjourned at
4:30 p.m.
