AT THIS TIME, I ASKED SUPERINTENDENT BONSER TO VERIFY THAT WE ARE IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF TEXAS OPEN MEETINGS ACT REGARDING THE NOTICE FOR THIS MEETING.

THANK YOU, PRESIDENT STOLLE.

I VERIFIED THAT THIS MEETING HAS BEEN POSTED IN COMPLIANCE WITH THE PROVISIONS OF THE TEXAS OPEN MEETINGS ACT.

THANK YOU. THIS IS THE TIME FOR PUBLIC COMMENTS.

DO WE HAVE ANY? ALONG.

WE HAVE A DISCUSSION AND ACTION ITEM, 5.1, CONSIDERATION AND POSSIBLE ACTION REGARDING

[5.1. Consideration and Possible Action Regarding Authorizing the Superintendent to Take Action regarding the Robinson Fine Arts Center, Including Initiating Legal Action]

AUTHORIZATION THE SUPERINTENDENT TO TAKE ACTION REGARDING THE FINE ARTS CENTER, INCLUDING INITIATING LEGAL ACTION.

AT THIS TIME, WE WILL TAKE ACTION ON AN ITEM THAT WAS DISCUSSED IN CLOSED SESSION.

MAY I HAVE A MOTION? I MOVE THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AUTHORIZES THE SUPERINTENDENT TO PROCEED AT HER DISCRETION WITH FILING A LAWSUIT ON BEHALF OF PLANO ISD AGAINST PERKINS&WILL INC ARCHITECT, AND MCCARTHY BUILDING COMPANIES INC CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AT RISK RELATING TO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION DEFECTS IN THE ROBINSON FINE ART CENTER BUILDING AND GROUNDS, AND TO ENFORCE THE PROVISIONS OF AND REMEDIES AVAILABLE UNDER COMMON LAW AND THE DISTRICT'S CONTRACTS WITH EACH.

I'LL SECOND. OK, I HAVE A MOTION BY JERI CHAMBERS, A SECOND BY DR.

LAUREN TYRA THAT THE BOARD OF TRUSTEES AUTHORIZES THE SUPERINTENDENT TO PROCEED AT HER DISCRETION WITH THE FILING OF A LAWSUIT ON BEHALF PLANO ISD AGAINST PERKINS&WILL INC ARCHITECT, AND MACCARTHY BUILDINGS COMPANIES INC CONSTRUCTION MANAGER AT RISK RELATING TO DESIGN AND CONSTRUCTION DEFECTS IN THE ROBINSON FINE ART CENTER BUILDING AND GROUNDS, AND TO ENFORCE PROVISIONS OF AND REMEDIES AVAILABLE UNDER COMMON LAW IN THE DISTRICT'S CONTRACTS WITH EACH.

IS THERE ANY DISCUSSION? HEARING NONE, WE WILL PROCEED TO VOTE.

ALL IN FAVOR, PLEASE RAISE YOUR HAND.

THE MOTION PASSES UNANIMOUSLY.

AND I BELIEVE SUPERINTENDENT BONSER HAS A COMMENT.

I DO. I JUST WANTED TO MAKE IT CLEAR THAT OUR HOPE IS THAT WE WILL BE ABLE TO RESOLVE THE ISSUES OR CONCERNS THAT WE HAVE WITHOUT FILING SUIT, BUT WE BELIEVE IT IS IN THE BEST INTEREST OF THE DISTRICT TO BE ABLE TO PROCEED IN THAT MANNER SHOULD THE SITUATION NECESSITATE THAT TYPE OF ACTION.

THANK YOU. ALL RIGHT.

IF THERE'S NO FURTHER BUSINESS OF THE BOARD OR ANY OBJECTIONS, THE MEETING IS ADJOURNED.

THE TIME IS 8:48 AM.
