       a). June/July meeting dates
Set dates for tentative school site council meetings on June 6th and July 11th

  Public Comment-
-Mr. Elias: Students have created a student density map to show where bus lines should be. The city contracted with a consultant who only referenced a traffic analysis, which lead to inaccurate data and has left little coverage in the north and south. Student’s information was much more through and they have been asked by the council to be a part of the RFP for next year. In addition, due to the student’s input the city is creating free shuttles that will run down Rosemead Boulevard.
-Mr. Renteria announced that the applications for the Don Booster scholarships are out and wants to encourage graduating seniors to apply.
