Status:
Approve First Amendment to the Reciprocal Use Agreement with the City of Sunrise and The School Board of Broward County, Florida.
At the May 20, 2011 Board Workshop, staff presented information regarding requests from several municipalities to revisit the Reciprocal Use Agreements (RUA). These requests were primarily in response to the District?s implementation of its Four-Day Summer Work Week and the potential increase in facility costs it would have on the municipalities as a result of their utilization of District schools to facilitate their summer camps.
Staff is recommending this First Amendment in order to clarify the District?s position regarding the use of District-owned facilities during non-operational times. Specifically, it is the intent of the District to only seek reimbursement for costs that The School Board of Broward County, Florida (SBBC), would not have incurred except for the use of District-owned facilities by a municipality. Additionally, the amendment seeks to provide flexibility to work collaboratively with the municipalities in an effort to identify strategies to mitigate such costs without financially impacting the District. Staff believes this recommended amendment is consistent with the discussions held at the May 20, 2011 School Board Workshop.
The City will execute this agreement after the SBBC approval. This Agreement has been reviewed and approved as to form and legal content by the Office of the General Counsel.
There is no financial impact to the school district; therefore this item does not require a collaboration form from the Capital Budget Department.
