In order to accommodate some of the work schedules of the Board members and to allow the public more convenient access to Board meetings, Dr. Webber recommended changing the Board meeting dates from the 1st and 3rd Tuesday of each month to the 2nd and 4th Thursday of each month, each one to begin at 6:00 P.M.

However, Better Water Works expressed an interest in purchasing the 2 parcels and would like for the Board to allow them to enter into a cooperative endeavor agreement to secure the corner lot also. Mr. Slusher suggested that the Board amend the Agenda to add this request under permission to bid and rebid just the building on the remaining property and agree to enter into a cooperative agreement with Better Water Works for the corner lot. Board attorney Elmer Noah stated that the Board could go back and bid the 2 lots together or split the 2 lots and go out for public bid. In consideration of Mr. Walker’s absence, the Board tabled the matter until the next meeting.
On the recommendation of Special Projects/Safety Coordinator Kenneth Slusher, Susan Spence moved, seconded by John Russell, that the Board accept the change order as presented to remodel Ouachita Parish High School in regard to Phase 1 that includes the boy’s restrooms, installing chase walls and replacing some of the cast iron piping in the walls at a cost of $26,868 which does not negatively impact the budget. It is estimated that the project still remains under budget by around $50,000. Motion carried unanimously.
Special Projects/Safety Coordinator urged the Board to set a meeting before the second meeting of the month in May because he needed to accept bids as soon as possible on projects at OPHS in order to have them completed before school starts in the fall. The Board was reminded that the first meeting in May is usually canceled due to conflicts with graduation ceremonies. However, after much discussion on setting the next Board meetings, Susan Spence moved, seconded by A. R. Sims, that the first meeting be set for April 26 and the second meeting to be May 24, both at 6:00 P.M. Motion carried unanimously.
