C Report to N.C.S.P.B. November 6, 1985 Re: Recommendation 54 Master Plan The sub - committee met with Mr. Glen Holmes (Supt. of Plant N/N Bd of Ed.) and Joe Caruana on October 3rd. Mr. Holmes advised us that he had been unaware of Recommendation 54 until he received notice of the above meeting. He further advised that discussions for the 1986 budget for the N/N Bd. of Ed. have gone past the stage where any further monies can be requested. There was no money allocated for the above recommendation. It was agreed by all present that we need to take another look at what needs to be done at each of the schools mentioned in the recommendation. The information we have is no longer accurate. Mr. Holmes also agreed to talk to the Board as well. No further meeting date was set at this time. Respectfully submitted, Francine Newton
