in their regions. They also assist at regional meetings and serve as a
resource in the resolution process at the OSBA annual convention.

The committee also advises the executive director and staff during legislative sessions and may act on behalf of the association in accordance with those policies. Serving as an LPC member requires several trips to Salem, for which the association pays mileage and associated expenses.Members of the Legislative Policy Committee have the following responsibilities:
LPC members shall participate in legislative advocacy and boardsmanship training activities, which include the following:

9.A. Board Member Reports
Presenter:
Lane ESD Board
Description:
As Board Members prepare their comments or reports, please
consider the
following questions:
1. What programs did I visit over the last month? What committees did I participate in? 2. What is the connection to the LESD services and programs to the component districts or community? 3. What significance or meaning does the activity have to the broader community? And 4. What are the next steps or follow-up activities planned? Sherry Duerst-Higgins Linda Hamilton Leslie Harris Nora Kent: Attended The Siuslaw School District Meeting to hear the
presentation by the Facility Planning Advisory Board.The school bond to build a
new high school, seismically upgrade the
middle school, and remodel part
of
elementary school failed last November, so the advisory board created an
online
community survey to find out what might meet approval in the future.
Their findings were drawn from 350 community members and 125
faculty and staff. One significant note
regarding the bond was that 25% of those surveyed had been uninformed
about facts, so the board concluded that more time to inform the community in
the future would be necessary . It would
be important to convey to the public
that building a better school would help
build the local economy.In the future the board has decided to request a PAC for 9 months
before the next election, that they propose for May 2021 . They will only ask
to fund the high school, that will promoted as a community learning center to
reach the many resident of Florence who moved there after their kids left
school. They will ask staff members to participate to bride the gap with the
community.
