Resolution 1718R-016 by Director Voss

Background:
|
At its meeting on January 25, 2018, the Board referred Resolution 1718R-016 by Director Voss regarding a district-wide composting and recycling program to the Committee on Accountability, Finance, and Personnel. The Resolution was carried forward by the Board at its Annual Organization Meeting on April 24, 2018.
Since that time, members of the Administration and the Office of Accountability and Efficiency have been working together to respond to the resolution. Both the Administration and Office of Accountability and Efficiency agree with the overall intent of the resolution, and are recommending adoption with minor adjustments.
Some of the adjustments include suggesting a pilot composting and recycling program of 5-7 schools interested in participating for the upcoming school year rather than district-wide implementation. This will allow the district to begin small and scale up as appropriate over time based on interest and available funds.
In addition to seeking interested schools to participate in the pilot program, other next steps include identifying potential grant funding, asking schools currently implementing composting and/or recycling programs to share their knowledge with pilot schools, and continuing to explore implementation of sharing tables.

|
Fiscal Impact Statement:
|
This item does not authorize expenditures. Schools will be responsible for costs for their school to participate in the pilot.
The Administration will work with Grant Development Services to identify potential grants that will support the pilot program.
|
|
Implementation and Assessment Plan
:
|
Upon Board approval, the Administration will share information with schools regarding the pilot composting and recycling program to identify participants for the 2018-19 school year.
|
|
Recommendation:
|
The Administration and Office of Accountability and Efficiency recommend that the Board adopt Resolution 1718R-016 by Director Voss regarding a district-wide composting and recycling program as amended in the attachment.
