Presenter:
Board Member
Description:
Lane ESD acknowledges that the lands we call Lane County - the lands that sustain our children, our future, and our collective well-being - are the traditional ancestral home of the Kalapuya, Siuslaw, Molalla, and other indigenous people who have lived in Lane County since time immemorial. Native children, families, and communities bear witness to a legacy of displacement and forced relocation. As an educational institution we are accountable for addressing the current and former silencing, erasure and genocide of native people in Oregon and Turtle Island. We aim to join with indigenous people, honoring their resilience, courage, and self-determination in a purposeful pursuit of justice.

8.D. Approve Tentative Agreement with Lane County Education Association
Presenter:
Board Chair, Superintendent
Description:
In May the LESD and LCEA held two sessions to discuss items specified in the 2023-27 collective bargaining agreement for interim bargaining. Topics for discussion were:
The parties agreed that the bilingual stipend would remain at 2%. It was noted that bilingual requirements are considered in determining where such positions are placed on the salary range. The parties discussed how to make this consideration more visible to employees. Instructional Assistants will receive an additional .5% wage increase for a total increase of 5% for the 2024-25 school year. As for all employees, this increase is in addition to any step increase that an employee is eligible to receive. The discussion of wage increases was constrained by the current school funding forecast which is requiring cost containment efforts to avoid further draw down of ending fund balance and other more substantive budget reduction actions such as layoffs. The parties also agreed that the opt-out incentive was beneficial to employees and the agency. The pilot will continue next year at the same incentive level of $300, with the goal of having more data to inform discussion of changes to the opt-out incentive in the future. Members of the bargaining teams included: LCEA Rhonda Brown Jess Garnica Tapia Tanya Ray Stuart Rush Teagan Wynne

8.E. Implement Board Policy GDPA: Layoff/Recall, Classified
Presenter:
Superintendent Scurto
Description:
If the Board determines the need for a reduction in work force, the procedures outlined below will be followed. A layoff means the reduction of an employee’s annual hours of assigned work by more than 20 percent or a reduction that would be below the level required to qualify for medical insurance benefits.
Any employee who is to be laid off will be so notified in writing 45 calendar days (or more) prior to the lay-off date. The association will simultaneously be sent a copy of the notification if a member or members are involved. Layoff criteria to be considered by the Board are: 1. Maintenance of a sound and balanced service program; 2. Qualifications of the staff as defined in the job descriptions; and 3. Seniority. An employee whose position is being eliminated will be eligible to bump the least senior employee in the same position description/category with the same or fewer hours of employment and same or lesser rate of pay, if qualified. If there are no positions within the job category for which the employee is qualified and has greater seniority, then the employee may bump the least senior employee outside their job category with the same or fewer hours of employment and same or lesser rate of pay so long as the laid off employee is qualified for that position. An employee displaced by bumping may also have the option to bump on the same basis. Job categories are educational/behavioral assistant; program assistant; business services; media/courier/maintenance/custodial; production; and network services/technology. The following positions are being reduced due to a reduction in grant funding.

8.K.1. DJC - Bidding Requirements
Presenter:
Board Chair
Description:
OSBA recommends deleting the current versions of DJC - Bidding Requirements, DJC-AR - Exemptions from Competitive Bidding and Special Procurements, DJCA - Personal Service Contracts and DJCA-AR - Personal Service Contracts, and replacing them with the new proposed versions of DJC and DJC-AR. The proposed DJC outlines the procurement requirements for Small Procurement, Intermediate Procurement, Regular Procurement, Emergency Procurement, Sole Source Procurement and Personal Services Contracts. Additionally, the proposed policy DJC - Bidding Requirements, reflects the new amounts for the procurement levels passed in House Bill 1047 (2023) and went into effect January 1, 2024. The policy also defines "public improvements" for purposes of the procurement levels, defines "community benefit contract" and the "Construction Manager/General Contractor procurement."
The proposed administrative regulation, DJC-AR - Exemptions from Competitive Bidding and Special Procurements, has been updated and continues to provide guidance for procurements which are exempt from competitive bidding or are special procurements. Collective Bargaining Impact: None Local ESD Responsibility: Revise and readopt highly recommended policy DJC - Bidding Requirements and consider whether to also add optional DJC-AR - Exemptions from Competitive Bidding and Special Procurements.
