just like everywhere else there a space you know what it's all schools are out of space so as the district you know they raised concerns about the class because members responded and agreement that keeps the coop going but it is I think everybody was pretty happy with where things landed and I'm here to be meeting again end of the month so I'm sure Josh and Sue will have some more details on for the next meeting hopefully about you know the actual plans and construction look like in the timeline both kinds of things go that was a big thing that we talked about and hold on I'm going to pull up the agenda because there was a lot that we talked about we just talked about you know of those funds from the peace house until it was mentioned in Tony's this is an urgent report and I don't know if anybody has any questions about that because we have some history of you know that money and we decided to do as a board with that and what is recommendation for but as the committee if anyone has any questions you know you can refer to Tony about know the specifics he also went through I will say they created his office they created a very comprehensive calendar on the budget creating extras budget and in March to meet with all the different departments through you know the needs and the goal is we we will meet at committee again in April and see where the progress is hopefully have a tentative budget in June and if we can't approve after we posted if we if we don't have a point of approving it in August after we eat we did talk about the audit and it wasn't just us they were behind and getting the information but since we met last week so far and we're we're reviewing that as one of their key wave we should have it next week but next week at least we'll have it to you to be able to view it and look at it we always would have somebody from from The Firm common present to the board and then it hasn't had to be so tight dress version of about and then we just talked
