CITY OF DUBLIN/DUBLIN UNIFIED SCHOOL DISTRICT LIAISON COMMITTEE MEETING
On July 13, 2004 Mayor Lockhart, Councilmember McCormick, Eddie Peabody, Community Development Director and I met with representatives from the Dublin Unified School District. Those
representatives included Eric Swalwell, Denis King, John Sugiyama, and the District’s Business Manager.
Attached to this memorandum is a copy of our agenda for your information.
Those items that we discussed of note included the following:
1. Camp Parks Charette and Development Update
We encouraged the School District representatives to participate in the Charette if possible.
2. General Obligation Bond
The School District Representatives indicated that they were looking at the potential of an $87.00 per year tax for general obligation bonds. They indicated that this would generate
approximately $180 million. They were in the process of identifying two focus groups to look at a potential bond measure.
3. Eastern Dublin Development Update
4. Status of Future School Development
The District Representatives indicated that the issue of locating a central High School on Camp Parks property has resurfaced again and has the support of at least two Board Members.
They did indicate that they would have to make a decision fairly soon because Phase 1 of the Dublin High School Master Plan at the current location would be $12 million and once
they committed that money it would be very difficult for them to begin considering another site. Mayor Lockhart indicated in her conversations with eastern Dublin residents their
two primary issues with the current Dublin High location was the inconvenience and the impact on students during renovation.
4. Future Joint Projects
The Liaison committee members indicated that it would be a good idea to hold a joint School Board/City Council meeting in the future to discuss potential joint projects.
If you have any questions please contact one of the City of Dublin representatives.
