Falcon Heights, Roseville, Maplewood and Little Canada. We will be working with all our potential partners to expand the opportunities for reducing costs. d) Discuss the possibility of shared programming. Responsible District Administrator — John Thein and the INCA Team Composition — Principals, Community Education Staff, Activities Staff, Recreation Departments,, Operations Staff, Municipalities Planning Timeline — Continuous Pilot Project — None YTD Projected Implementation— Ongoing Action to Date: This is one of the most difficult Cornerstones to enact. The sharing of programs, in many cases, may bring about a reduction in staffing. This does add another level of complexity to deal with when discussing the sharing of programs and services. Community Education programming, especially the senior citizens program, and recreational programming are prime candidates for reducing duplication of services. Cornerstone #2: Request that the City of Roseville assist in planning for the return of the Lake Owasso School to School District control from a long-term lease. Responsible District Administrator — John Thein and Bob Rygh Team Composition — INCA, City of Roseville Staff, School Board, City Council, Urban Planners Planning Timeline — Continuous Pilot Project — None Projected Implementation — August 2008 Action to Date: Meetings have taken place between the Executive Director of the Cable Commission and District Staff The proposal is on the table for an agreement between the district and the North Suburban cable commission to lease/lease purchase the Lake Owasso School. The City of Roseville has also been represented in these discussions. A meeting has also been set up with the Comcast Cable Company to workout a separation agreement. The district has been successful, due to the leadership of Senator Marty and Representative Greiling, in enacting legislation that will allow Alternative Bonding authority after the district divests itself of the Lake Owasso School. It is my hope the June 25,, 2008 meeting with the Roseville City Council will provide some creative options to the future use of the Lake Owasso School and/or property. Cornerstone #3: Ask the City of Little Canada to assist in planning for the long- term use of the property adjacent to Roseville Area Middle School.
