This fall (which probably means mid to late September at the earlier), the staff will issue its draft recommendation with proposed boundaries; this will be the first time they see boundaries. The board is scheduled to vote on the options at its early-November board meeting, and there is zero room to push that back again because the decision needs to be made before the option process starts in January. What that means is that from the time the staff issues its recommendations to when the school board votes, there will be maybe six weeks to make adjustments to the recommendation. That is enough time to tweak some proposed boundaries to see if they can improve either option, but it is not enough time to revisit were they propose siting the schools. Unless the staff expands the community engagement again, which is unlikely since we're headed into summer, we most likely will not see any further analysis from the staff until they release their final siting determination in September.

This is an important point. They are going to be releasing recommendations on school changes and boundaries at the same time, with only a few weeks to hammer out details. I think we're in for a big mess this fall if they don't release anything until then. [/quote]
