           b.  Increase to Pupil Transportation Contract

               The Administration recommends the Board of Directors approve an increase of      $134,000 to the pupil transportation contract. On June 6, 2006, the Board approved a    new five-year contract with Durham School Services to provide pupil transportation.    During the 2006-2007 school year, Durham experienced significant difficulties in    attracting and retaining drivers. Surrounding districts faced similar challenges given the    overall economy in Snohomish County. In order to rectify this situation, Durham    granted a pay increase to its drivers. Article 20 of the approved contract provides that    the parties may renegotiate an adjustment to the contract price in order to, among other    things, recognize increases in labor costs. Durham has requested an increase of      $134,000 for the 2007-2008 school year. This request has been evaluated by District    staff which concluded the request is fair and reasonable. Staff further concluded it is in    the best interests of the District that Durham increases its wage rate in order to attract    and retain the number of qualified drivers needed to adequately meet the District’s pupil    transportation service needs.
