BY STACI WILSON<\/strong><\/p>\n

More changes are in store for Mountain View as the district\u2019s business director opted to retire from his position by the end of the month.<\/p>\n

The board accepted Joseph Patchcoski\u2019s resignation at the Monday, Sept. 14 board meeting. But board members had questions regarding the school budget and the new teachers\u2019 contract and payroll.<\/p>\n

Newly appointed board member Dr. Andrew Chichura asked about the status of the district\u2019s cash flow with no state budget in place. \u201cWill we need revenue anticipation notes?\u201d he asked.<\/p>\n

Patchcoski said the district had enough in its fund balance to withstand another year. He said the basic education subsidy would be coming; as well as the $50,000-$60,000 the district was shorted last year.<\/p>\n

He said the district would likely end the year with a \u201cvery large deficit\u201d but \u201cThe district is okay for awhile where other districts are failing.\u201d
\nBoard member Jason Richmond asked about the recent financial downgrading of the district\u2019s bond issues.<\/p>\n

Patchcoski said that with school bond issues, Forest City and Susquehanna were also facing the same situation.<\/p>\n

Audience member Corey Gesford asked if the recent business office retirements would further impact payroll. Patchcoski said he believed the office would manage with the assistant business manager, as well as informational support from two local school districts and CSIU.<\/p>\n

Retroactive pay will be applied to the teachers as soon as possible, Patchcoski said. He said the process involves a tremendous amount of data entry.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s going to get done but it\u2019s got to be done right,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Through some back and forth between board members, it came to light that the teachers\u2019 contract had not yet been signed.<\/p>\n

Board member Sondra Stine said the district had been waiting on the arbitrator to decide the step placement for two teachers for several months and asked if the contract could be signed with a memorandum of understanding that those staff members\u2019 salary schedule could be different based upon the arbitrator\u2019s decision.<\/p>\n

Board president Thomas Stoddard said the decision was needed in order to know what the payroll is going to be.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf it doesn\u2019t impact the contract, why not sign it?\u201d Richmond questioned.<\/p>\n

With some changes made after the board and union voted to approve the contract, Patchcoski said he thought board members should see the contract before it was signed.<\/p>\n

Superintendent Karen Voigt said she, along with a union representative, was reviewing the contract.<\/p>\n

The district approved advertising the business manager position with applications due by Oct. 9. at 2 p.m.<\/p>\n

Chichura asked for a current job description be emailed to the board members, along with any additional qualifications that would be added to the job description.<\/p>\n

*Jamie Boerio and Whitney Twining were granted tenure, effective Aug. 27;
