From the transcript
Uh, but this is primarily how our new school facilities are, uh, paid for, as well as how we have spent, uh, almost $50 million in support of major maintenance over the last decade. Uh, new to funding major maintenance projects is the partnership that we've had with the Matsu Borough to designate funds as part of their capital improvement project. Uh, and so what we're asking the board for approval for tonight would be to submit the prioritized list to the borough through this funding source, through this line item. And then in addition, the school district, as we've had funds available either at the end of a year or funds available for one-time purposes, we do have an internal CIP fund, and we have done both major and minor maintenance projects through that funding source.
