None. MSBA SUPERINTENDENT SEARCH PROCESS: Kristin Dehmer, executive director of human resources, and board members discussed the final step of the search process to negotiate the superintendent s contract parameters and salary. Discussion was held related to the April 1, 2018-June 30, 2018 bridge contract and the salary included. At the November 27, 2017 board meeting members approved appointing Brandon Lunak as interim superintendent effective December 1, 2017 through June 30, 2018 or earlier if a permanent superintendent is able to assume the position. Compensation was provided on a prorated annual rate of $154,715 as agreed upon for the interim superintendent duties. Board members discussed the three-year contract from July 1, 2018 through June 30, 2021.

Board members recommended no salary increase for the contract period of April 1, 2018-June 30, 2018 based on an annual salary of $154,715 and recommended a three-year contract with an annual salary of $176,948 for the 2018-19 contract year, $184,203 for the 2019-20 contract year, and $191,755 for the 2020-21 contract year.

MN Statute 123B.88 123B.88 Independent School Districts Transportation Subdivision 1. Providing transportation In any district, the board must arrange for the attendance of all pupils living two miles or more from the school, except pupils whose transportation privileges have been voluntarily surrendered under subdivision 2, or whose privileges have been under section 123B.91 subdivision 1, clause (6), or 123B.90, subdivision 2 51

Cost Impact The routes we have today do not have slack during the elementary school route time. $51,000 was used as the Minimum cost per contracted route is (2017-18 term). With load of 45 students expect an annual cost increase of $867,000 to transportation for students who live between.5 and 1 mile. If we increase the target load to 60 students, the expected annual cost increases to approximately $700,000. 52
