XV.e. Ratify the E-rate 2017 Contract
Quick Summary / Abstract:
Barbara Schiffner, Director- Information Technology
Recommended Motion:
The Board is asked to ratify the E-rate 2017 contract with AMC.NET
Rationale:
The Information Technology Department posted a Request for Proposal in
March to gather project bids from qualified vendors for the purchase of a
firewall appliance and network equipment. Factors considered in our
evaluation process to select the vendor included cost, experience,
references, and thoroughness and responsiveness to the RFP
requirements.
On April 24, the IT Department reviewed RFP’s for a new firewall appliance
and additional network equipment from three vendors who successfully
submitted proposals: AMS.NET, Development Group, Inc., and AAA
Network Solutions. A fourth company, Net Xperts, Inc., submitted a
proposal but did not meet the RFP deadline.
The initial review showed that AMS.NET met the evaluation criteria to the
RFP requirements. A second-level review was conducted by Bill Young,
Joel Rabin, and Barbara Schiffner and confirmed AMS.NET was the best
vendor to fulfill a network equipment contract with NUSD.
We are asking the Board to ratify the contract at the May 10, Board Meeting
because:
A contract with the selected vendor needed to be signed on May 4,
to continue with the E-rate process
We did not receive required information from vendors to post the
RFP in time to bring it to the April 26, Board Meeting
With Board ratification on May 10, this work will begin if:
USAC approves our application, expected between October and
December 2017
NUSD leaders decide to move forward with the project, possibly in
Spring 2018
Know that we can cancel the RFP and the terms of this contract at any
time.

XV.e. Ratify the E-rate 2017 Contract
Quick Summary / Abstract:
Barbara Schiffner, Director- Information Technology
Recommended Motion:
The Board is asked to ratify the E-rate 2017 contract with AMC.NET
Rationale:
The Information Technology Department posted a Request for Proposal in
March to gather project bids from qualified vendors for the purchase of a
firewall appliance and network equipment. Factors considered in our
evaluation process to select the vendor included cost, experience,
references, and thoroughness and responsiveness to the RFP
requirements.
On April 24, the IT Department reviewed RFP’s for a new firewall appliance
and additional network equipment from three vendors who successfully
submitted proposals: AMS.NET, Development Group, Inc., and AAA
Network Solutions. A fourth company, Net Xperts, Inc., submitted a
proposal but did not meet the RFP deadline.
The initial review showed that AMS.NET met the evaluation criteria to the
RFP requirements. A second-level review was conducted by Bill Young,
Joel Rabin, and Barbara Schiffner and confirmed AMS.NET was the best
vendor to fulfill a network equipment contract with NUSD.
We are asking the Board to ratify the contract at the May 10, Board Meeting
because:
A contract with the selected vendor needed to be signed on May 4,
to continue with the E-rate process
We did not receive required information from vendors to post the
RFP in time to bring it to the April 26, Board Meeting
With Board ratification on May 10, this work will begin if:
USAC approves our application, expected between October and
December 2017
NUSD leaders decide to move forward with the project, possibly in
Spring 2018
Know that we can cancel the RFP and the terms of this contract at any
time.

Item XVII B - Approve the School Facilities Needs Analysis ("Level II Developer
Fees")
Quick Summary / Abstract:
Superintendent Recommends Approval Doug Orr, Associate
Superintendent
Recommended Motion:
The Board is asked to approve the School Facilities Needs Analysis.
Rationale:
Per Government Code Section 65995.5, school districts are allowed to levy
fees in excess of the State Statutory Fee (Level I fee) on new residential
development to address the need for new school facilities as a direct impact
of new development. Prior to assessing Level II fees, the district must also
establish eligibility for State construction funds. Natomas Unified has
established State eligibility for new construction at the K-12 grade levels. In
order to assess Level II fees, a district must comply with at least two of four
statutory requirements. Natomas Unified has met three of the four statutory
requirements. A School Facilities Needs Analysis (SFNA) determines the
scope and cost of facilities necessary to accommodate increases in
enrollment expected over the next five years and that are attributable to
new residential development only. After calculating the projected students
from new development and the cost to provide classroom space for those
students, a mitigation amount is computed. The SFNA has determined that
Natomas Unified is eligible to assess Alternative No. 2 Fees (Level II fees)
in the amount of $4.73/square foot. The SFNA demonstrates that the
Alternative No. 2 Fees are reasonably related and roughly proportional to
the cost of school facilities for future development and in accordance with
applicable laws. With the increasing housing developments in the area, and
the need for additional funding to meet the needs of future growth, the
increase in fees is necessary.
