Danny Young:

Financially best to have Shared Services with as many municipalities as possible
Current agreement - municipalities paid based on student percentages
New agreement - pricing unfair
New agreement - 3 municipalities participating (other municipalities opting out of certain services for various reasons)
Encourage other municipalities to come together and maintain some sort of shared services, meet in the middle with other municipalities

Valerie Speakman, General Counsel:

Takes exception to the thought that new pricing is unfair
New agreement more than fair - personnel spending equal amount of time at each location regardless of district size
