Delete Item IIG - Gym Floor Project

Table Item IIH - PCA, Inc. Grant Management Supplements

This is the second review of the Pataula FY23 Initial Budget. Changes from the first review are highlighted. These include but are not limited to: QBE Allotment updates, proposed new teacher salaries vs actual salaries, TRS increase of 0.17 percent. PCA is projected to have a $573.027 surplus. The Governor has proposed an across the board $2000 pay increase for teachers. This will change the salary schedule for FY23, a budget amendment may be necessary after we receive new numbers. The Committee is asking for approval of the budget as presented at this time. 

This is the second review of the FY23 Initial Budget for Spring Creek. Changes from the first review are highlighted. The most significant change is reflected in CARES grant monies and the difference in the pay scale/expenses for the hire of a more experienced AG teacher. Spring Creek is expected to have a surplus of $32,408. The Governor has proposed an across the board $2000 pay increase for teachers. This will change the salary schedule for FY23, a budget amendment may be necessary after we receive new numbers. The Committee is asking for approval of the budget as presented at this time. 

The proposed $2000 HB190 Amended FY 2022 Salary Supplemental Pay listing of position categories and job codes to receive the supplement did not include ALL staff positions at Pataula Charter Academy.  School leadership values the contributions of all staff members at PCA. Therefore, Administration is seeking approval from the committee to give a $2000 supplement to the Staff positions not covered in this pay listing. This will be an estimated $34,000 needed from general operating funds in FY22. 

The proposed $2000 HB190 Amended FY 2022 Salary Supplemental Pay listing of position categories and job codes to receive the supplement did not include ALL staff positions at Spring Creek Charter Academy.  School leadership values the contributions of all staff members at SCCA. Therefore, Administration is seeking approval from the committee to give a $2000 supplement to the Staff positions not covered in this pay listing. This will be an estimated $22,000 needed from general operating funds in FY22. 

The project to add a Concession Stand, Restrooms and Plaza to the athletic complex was sent for bids. Only one bid was submitted, from CGM and it was above the projected budget for the project. Several options were discussed on how to advance with the project.  The consensus from the committee at this time is to rebid the project in hopes of getting more participation in the bid process. 

The Electrical project to connect Grady EMC to the new modular building at SCCA was put up for bid. We received only one bid from A West Electrical in the amount of $36,780. Our project manager reviewed the proposal and deems this price fair with the scope of the project. Cheryl is recommending we accept this bid.
