Dublin Unified School District (DUSD) Measure E Project Update:
DUSD will be holding a Study Session on October 9th and the School Board will give direction as it relates to the Bond in the following areas:
Bond funding timing
Priority setting of the projects
During the discussion of this item additional background information was supplied as it relates to the student population growing faster than they can build schools. There has been
an addition of 500+ students since last school year.
There was some discussion about Emerald Glen Aquatics and that the Staff report will be presented to City Council in October/November for direction. There was some discussion about
the swim facility and the proposed High School pool and some additional collaboration on this effort between the City and School.
There will be sharing of information between the City and School based on the outcomes of our meetings.
City/District Joint Use Projects:
City and School District Staff is working on a Joint Use Agreement and funding item for the Dublin High School Tennis Court refurbishment project and the City Council will consider the
item in the next couple of months.
Other Business
There was a question on who funds the crossing guards and the answer is the City. There was question on how they could get more crossing guards, in particular there was a concern about
accident today between a Special Needs School Bus and student and the need for a crossing guard at Penn and AVB. There was some discussions between City Councilmembers and the School
Board Trustees about adding too many guards, and had discussion about the extent of the responsibility of the school for students going to and from home and how to prioritize crossing
guard locations in a finite pot of money.
The City of Dublin’s Traffic Committee would review the California Highway Patrol report (All school bus related accidents are investigated by CHP not the local Police Department) on
today’s incident as a matter of regular business and discuss contributing factors, etc.
