<br />In regard to CCS, Commissioner White advised it is too early to make
<br />decisions on potential school sites for new elementary and middle schools and
<br />requested more information regarding school capacity numbers. He also
<br />expressed concern regarding priority number three (3), questioning who is
<br />held responsible for the replacement of exit locks in four of the newest
<br />schools in the system. He requested clarification in regards to the Concord
<br />High School and Mt. Pleasant High School tennis courts and whether the
<br />approximately $200,000.00 left over from the QSCB funds could be applied to
<br />the cost of the tennis courts. He expressed support for a field house at Jay
<br />M. Robinson High School to be added to the list. Discussion continued.
<br />Vice Chairman Burrage expressed agreement with Commissioner White's
<br />comments regarding priority number three (3). He also questioned if the high
<br />school tennis courts have been properly maintained.
<br />Commissioner Carruth expressed support for reconstruction of the
<br />Concord High School and Mt. Pleasant High School tennis courts. He also
<br />expressed support for the field house at Jay M. Robinson High School but
<br />questioned where the funding should come from and if other schools had field
<br />house facilities in need of funding as well. He suggested items on the list
<br />from CCS be delayed until more information is available.
<br />Commissioner Measmer expressed agreement with Commissioner White's
<br />comments regarding priority number three (3). He expressed support for the
<br />tennis courts and camera system upgrades and expressed concern regarding the
<br />need for the upgrades at Jay M. Robinson High School due to the age of the
<br />school. He also requested more information regarding the playgrounds at the
<br />elementary schools.
<br />Chairman Poole expressed support for playground upgrades and
<br />installation, as well as the camera system upgrades. She recommended that
<br />CCS priority list items 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 14, 15, and 16 be placed on the
<br />Consent Agenda for approval with items 14, 15, and 16 to be approved at a not

<br />information on the remaining items.

<br />at Jay M. Robinson High School in the amount of $150,000.00. He questioned
