Quick Summary / Abstract
Approve the revisions to School Board Policy 2314, Leases - Rental and Contracts of Real Property and Facilities Leased by the School Board at this first reading.

School Board Policy 2314 governs the long term lease of real property by the School Board.  The proposed changes to the Policy are primarily meant to clarify certain provisions in the Policy, ensure that all lease agreements are processed for School Board consideration and formal approval by the Facility Planning & Real Estate Department, ensure that due diligent processes are followed for new leases and renewal of existing leases, stipulate minimum timeframes that new leases and lease renewals must be scheduled for School Board consideration and formal approval, and authorize school principals and facility directors to enter into short term rental agreements of no more than three (3) days in duration for the use of outside facilities without formal School Board approval.    

These revisions were discussed at the January 8, 2013 School Board Workshop, the February 21, 2013 Public Rule Development Meeting and at the June 18, 2013 School Board Workshop.  

This revised Policy 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.
