Charlie Alaku joined the meeting.

20 FIRE IN PUVIRNITUQ

Patrice informed the meeting that there was a fire at a teacher's residence that started from the dysfunctional furnace. They have to do a claim to MELS but the police report shows that there was a lack of proper service given by the fire department in Puvirnituq. The cost of repair is estimated at $100,000.00 and $150,000.00.

A letter will be sent to the NV of Puvirnituq and to the KRG civil security department, with a copy to MELS, asking to get better services.

21 XEROX PROPOSAL

Patrice informed the meeting that there are 45 machines in the schools that are old and are in need of replacement.He has come to an agreement with Xerox to purchase brand new machines at a cost of $216,900.00 plus applicable taxes.

On a motion duly made by Willie Cain Sr., it was resolved to adopt the following resolution no. 2008/2009-38.

WHEREAS the float of photocopy machines within Kativik School Board schools and offices needs to be upgraded;

WHEREAS the board has evaluated with its supplier Xerox the machines to be replaced;

WHEREAS Xerox has made a proposal to replace 45 photocopiers by a new model, Work Centre 5638, for a total amount of 216,900 $, plus applicable taxes, as per Annex II;

RESOLVED:

THAT the proposal (Annex II) be and is hereby awarded to Xerox for a total amount of 216,900 $, plus applicable taxes.

THAT the Director General or in her absence the Director of Equipment Services be and is hereby authorized to sign the purchase contract and to do all things necessary or useful in order to carry out the foregoing.

22 CAPITAL PROJECT UPDATE / STUDENTS RESIDENCE IN KANGIRSUJUAQ

Patrice informed the meeting that the extension to the school in Umiujaq has been approved by the treasury board, along with a duplex of two units.

Montreal, Qc. 33 XC 2008/2009-705 October 7, 8 and 9, 2008 MINUTES OF THE EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE OF THE KATIVIK SCHOOL BOARD

The students residence in Kangirsujuaq has not been approved yet by the treasury board. We will have to push before Christmas if we want to build it next summer.

Charlie Alaku said that, verbally, the deputy Minister declared during the meeting in Kuujjuaq that they would build a 32 beds residence and wonders if it could be stated in writing in order to confirm their commitment.

Patrice said that during the meeting the Minister did not confirm the above but has told MELS to do something about it and stated the fact that it was a promise given last June.

A letter will be sent to the Minister to ask for confirmation with a copy to the Education Committee of Kangirsujuaq.

Housing requests

Patrice informed the meeting that detailed report on the need for housing in Nunavik has been sent to MELS. He will seek confirmation regarding new housing for the next school year.

Charlie Watt Jr. said that a resolution was passed to that effect and should accompany the request.

Patrice said that we will have to put pressure.

Mary Aitchison said KSB is also in a dire need of housing and wonders how we could tell them to accelerate the process when we allow employees to share a dwelling, not charge them for rent.

A letter will be sent to the Minister to explain the situation and to request for an urgent meeting.

23 FIRE IN KUUJJUAQ - UPDATE

Charlie Watt Jr. would like to know what is happening after the fire at Jaanimmarik school in Kuujjuaq this summer. He wonders if anyone has been charged for criminal offense.

Patrice said that when there are minors involved, it is hard to know. He would look into it.
