Item No. 3
Shelly Schwartz, Education Committee Member
(24-029) Motion to Approve $3000.00 NPG Calabash Charter Academy Elementary School Friends of Calabash PTO
For discussion and possible action: (10 minutes)
WHEREAS, The Education Committee received an NPG Application from the Friends of Calabash, Inc, dba Calabash PTO [Parent Teacher Organization] (PTO), the 501(c)(3) non-profit organization for Calabash Charter Academy Elementary School (Area 7- south of Ventura Boulevard and east of Valley Circle). The Education Committee voted to approve and is requesting funding of $3,000 toward their cost of $4,565 plus incidental travel costs to provide supplemental science education from Discovery Cube, an outside vendor. These on-campus STEM workshops are scheduled annually for a school day TBD in May 2024, and will happen regardless of how much funding the Neighborhood Council chooses to grant (see attached NPG & supporting documentation).
Mitra Hormozian, PTO Vice President provided the committee a detailed presentation of the elements of the program, including an invoice from the vendor costing $11.00 per student for curriculum differentiated by grade level. Discovery Cube is the vendor, delivering hands-on science education for the past 35 years in STEM proficiency, early childhood education, healthy living, and environmental stewardship. Discovery Cube’s education teams transform the typical teacher-centered classroom by executing workshops and assemblies that require students to actively engage in hands-on experiences and discovery to find solutions to everyday challenges. These real-world applications give learners an opportunity to identify science as a solution and as a force for good in their communities. This STEM program serves all 415 Calabash students: TK through 5th grade students including students with special educational needs; and,
Upon support of this grant request, Mitra Hormozian has conveyed that the PTO has offered NC recognition in their parental email blasts and the WHWC Neighborhood Council free space and an outreach table (we can bring our pop-up 10×10 booth setup – NC volunteers needed) at their Spring Carnival Saturday April 13, 2024, at the LDS Church off Mulholland (4501 Deseret Dr. WH, Ca 91364) from 12:00 pm to 4:00 pm; and,
WHEREAS, The WHWC Neighborhood Council has granted this request to the Calabash PTO in the past; and,
WHEREAS, The Education Committee, after receiving input and having discussion via Zoom at a properly noticed virtual meeting under SB-411 voted to recommend to the full Board passage and funding of the attached NPG; and,
THEREFORE, The Education Committee, moves-requests that the WHWCNC full board (1.) Approve the attached Calabash PTO NPG for $3000.00 and direct the treasurer to submit the NPG and supporting documentation to the City Clerk for funding; and (2.) Rally our Area-7 Board Members, Outreach and Community Services Committees to help provide table items and booth support at the April 13th event and encourage many of our board members to sign up for volunteer time.
YES: Julie Waltrip, Heath Kline, Shelly Schwartz, Allan Biggins. ABSTAIN: Reina Cerros McCaughey.

Item No. 5
Tracey Rosen, Chair of Outreach Committee
(24-031) Motion to Approve up to $5,000 to purchase Promotional Items
Discussion and possible action: (5 minutes)
Motion to approve up to $5,000 to purchase promotional items from Outreach budget line item in revised budget 4Imprint to be distributed at Community Events where the WHWCNC will be tabling. The $5,000 will be taken from Outreach line item in the revised budget. The Community Outreach Committee voted in favor on February 26, 2024.
Because of a daily maximum charge of $1,000 on the WHWCNC credit card, and because each item is custom manufactured to order, which may result in multiple items shipping on the same date and/or all different dates, which may result in the need for the treasurer to obtain temporary daily spending limit increase(s) from the City Clerk. In addition, depending on when items ship on this order, combined with NCs other normal credit card spending, the treasurer may need to seek an override to the $5,000 monthly spending limit on the NC credit card from the City Clerk. To facilitate working with the City Clerk on any needed overrides, the order will be divided and placed as follows:

2,000 WHWCNC 3”x3” Branded Sticky Pads up to $1,000 ($0.39 each + tax & shipping) $937.71
550 Green WHWCNC Branded Value Grocery Totes up to $1,000 ($1.21 each + $50 set-up, tax & shipping) $980.48

Item No. 7
Heath Kline, Treasurer & Tracey Rosen, VP and Outreach Chair
(24-033) Motion to Approve $400 Expenditure to renew our current annual Zoom licenses and acquire a second Zoom license

For discussion and possible action: (5 minutes)
WHEREAS, Empower LA [DONE] has previously negotiated a discounted bulk purchase agreement with Zoom on behalf of the 99 NCs at a cost of $200.00 per license and covered the cost for the first license for each NC from their own budget. DONE has informed the WHWCNC that our current annual Zoom license is up for renewal in April, and going forward DONE will no longer cover this cost for NCs.
With the passage SB-411, NCs once again have the option to meet 100% remotely and invite public participation using Zoom (that was quite effective for this NC during the COVID health emergency) and NCs have options, with restrictions, under SB-411and AB-2449 to conduct hybrid-remote and in person meetings with public participation using Zoom, that this NC has voted to do, and our full board has done using borrowed equipment at a successful test in December. Recently committees of the NC have conducted successful 100% remote meeting using our Zoom license.
Prior to COVID the WHWCNC has occasions to have multiple committees meet at the same time in person. However, had scheduling difficulties and conflicts during COVID with only one Zoom licensee to share-use. Zoom has also been used by board members to carry out their collaborative implementation duties efficiently.
THEREFORE, the NC treasurer is directed to (a.) Renew the NC’s expiring Zoom license at an annual cost of $200.00; and (b.) obtain a second Zoom License at an annual cost of $200.00 through DONE. The treasurer is directed to complete any necessary documentation with the City Clerk and DONE to facilitate the transfer of NC funds to DONE to cover these annual Zoom license costs.
These reoccurring NC operating expenses are to be expensed under the Office/Operation Expenditures [OOE] budget category. The treasurer is directed to create a new Zoom Virtual Meeting SaaS budget line under OEE
The governance committee passed this motion unanimously. [5 Yes].
Yes: Weiss, Rosen, Kline, DiBiase, Patterson. Roll Call Vote

Item No. (8)
Heath Kline, Treasurer
(24-034) Budget Reallocation Motion to support new funding approved in Agenda items 3-7 (24-029 through 24-033) above

To facilitate the spending authorized in the proceeding March motions Items 2-7 (24-029 through 24-033) increases are required to the Outreach and Neighborhood Purpose Grant [NPG] Budget Categories, that can come from unspent funds available in the Community Improvement Project [CIP] Budget Category.

In addition, the Treasurer is directed to make the follow changes within Budget Categories:

The treasurer should make the following changes of importance to our NC’s internal budget and expense tracking, (but not the City Clerk who only recognizes budget line details in categories other than OEE when a BAC is submitted):

In the NPG Budget Category give a $3,000 budget for the Friends of Calabash NPG budget line.

In the CIP Budget Category set the Education Project budget line to $0 (The Education Committee has no plans for a CIP this FY.)

In the OUTREACH Budget Category give the necessary budget line funding to the March expenditures; (a.) Minuteman Press Rack Cards $275, (b.) 4Imprint $5,000, (c.)T-Shirt Guy $2,500 and change the previous existing budget line details as follows; (d.) Social Media $0, (e.)Warner Center News $0, (f) Website Hosting $19.99, Website Webmaster $0, General Outreach $174.01.

The Board approves and authorizes all the budget changes outlined above and directs the treasurer to file this updated budget with the City Clerk, as required, and use this updated budget going forward.

The Board and public can see all the above changes, and March proposed spending motions (shown in blue), as well as all our YTD spending activities on the “Draft Reallocation Budget MOTION 3/13/24 Item 8 (24-034)” spread sheet PDF document included in the March support documents.
