2
00:00:23.199 --> 00:00:46.559
for all girls here. is not with us. And Vincent here have any public comment with us this morning. Um we'll go into

3
00:00:46.559 --> 00:01:03.039
maybe we'll get a um so looking at our agenda, we do have a couple of modifications. Um you will find Under the consent agenda, we will have

5.2.3.1 the reinstatement for Tracy. And then under new business, we will have um 6.4 the fee schedule, 6.5 substitute pay

6
00:01:51.200 --> 00:02:06.960
Yes. Agenda is adopted. Move us into reports and we'll start with business manager Tanya. Good morning.

7
00:02:06.960 --> 00:02:26.080
I will I will share my screen. Are you able to see that? Okay. several times the numbers for June 30th 2026

8
00:02:26.080 --> 00:02:41.120
compared to the prior years. Um so just to cash basis right now um so nothing reported for audit purposes. So very raw

9
00:02:41.120 --> 00:02:57.120
data um comparing June 30th 2026 as of July 9th comparing it to the prior year as of July 8. So very um comparable time periods

10
00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:14.159
um and and the June 30th 2024 numbers are all full audit numbers. So um mainly look at the 2026 and 2025 years to compare. So this first page is the

11
00:03:14.159 --> 00:03:29.680
general. So um we have for revenue we have received about 94.9% of our revenue compared to 93.2 to the prior year. So,

12
00:03:29.680 --> 00:03:45.200
um very comparable in state revenue. We're at 91% and that looks reasonable because we have a 9010 shift from the state. We still be reporting receivables

13
00:03:45.200 --> 00:04:07.599
for federal revenue 25% the prior year. Then for property taxes 109 compared to 107 there's going to be a lot of adjustments going on now audit that'll change that

14
00:04:07.599 --> 00:04:24.240
and then um local fees we're compared to 84% so we are going to be over budget local area which is good revenue for us those are the revenue percentages for

15
00:04:24.240 --> 00:04:40.479
the general fund. Um general fund expenditures um as of June 30th 26 we spent 98.4% % of our expenditures compared to 96.9

16
00:04:40.479 --> 00:04:57.120
the year before. There's still some clean up here also coming in um some other expenses like payable. We are over budget and supplies and equipment. So we'll review that

17
00:04:57.120 --> 00:05:17.639
audit but overall very careful budgets. Then on page shows all the other funds in revenues we receive 92.8

18
00:05:18.960 --> 00:05:41.199
and then 96.7. So again, community does look like we're going to receive more than right now. We've received more than we have in the past

19
00:05:41.199 --> 00:06:01.759
and a little less budget. So hopefully a little better this year. Any questions? We have a negative fund balance in community yet. We do. Make a transfer eventually or how long we go with that?

20
00:06:01.759 --> 00:06:42.960
Um we look every year. So we help school that fund. Yes. All right. Any questions for Okay, thank you Tanya. Thank you. Mr.

33
00:11:44.079 --> 00:11:59.440

36
00:12:57.440 --> 00:13:34.560
this is a manual requirement to adopt plan along with that facility plan. I'm very excited that time July July

37
00:13:34.560 --> 00:13:51.680
insurance that I signed. So I'll let her go over first. Great. Okay. Thank you. Um so this is the revenue production. So it looks a lot more complicated than it

38
00:13:51.680 --> 00:14:11.760
You select your school and the information populates. So based on the number of students that we estimate so it's for 10 years that the sheet projects and then the very bottom shows the total revenue each

39
00:14:11.760 --> 00:14:29.920
year. So um approximately 291,000 in fiscal year 27 286 school year 28 and so on and it shows that all of it is or majority of it is already

40
00:14:29.920 --> 00:14:50.160
um couple years there's 3800 that is um but the majority of the money does come from taxpayers um so that's sheet that just calculates the revenue for each of the 10 years then

41
00:14:50.160 --> 00:15:06.800
an expenditure sheet that we go through and project what we're going to spend in each of the areas that are allowed. Um so there's a big health and safety area which is um physical hazards

42
00:15:06.800 --> 00:15:24.079
um environmental health and safety management safety indoor air quality things like that. We also look through areas we're going to plan to spend in building like the maintenance items. So um building

43
00:15:24.079 --> 00:15:41.440
hardware, electrical, mechanical, plumbing, things like that. And we project each of the 10 years. And um towards the bottom of the sheet is showing

44
00:15:41.440 --> 00:16:06.000
what we balance each of the years. So it's starts with the beginning funator to estimate that I need fund balance and then keeps doing that for the following for 10 years. So it's showing that we're using

45
00:16:06.000 --> 00:16:20.399
effectively different areas and like it's required by statute that we go through this process each year. Then

46
00:16:20.399 --> 00:16:36.000
we like to show to MD that we are making good use of the money. And then lastly, there's that basically just say that we're going to comply with all laws that are related to it and it's

47
00:16:36.000 --> 00:17:07.000
end up being signed by question basically based on our population and the age of the buildings. There's a cap on the building. Thank you. Any questions on [snorts] that or

73
00:26:42.400 --> 00:26:58.880
typically in July we would approve these schedules and they did not change from last year. So there is no change to the schedule um the substitute pay schedule or the pay schedule for the next year. So these are just a yearly requirement

74
00:26:58.880 --> 00:27:16.360
for us to approve these. So 6.4 would be to approve the 2017. Is there a motion for that? Second roll calls.

77
00:28:28.000 --> 00:29:01.080
bit better. Yeah. So far there district. Similar [snorts] message on the referendum message

78
00:29:09.440 --> 00:30:05.919
to six weeks. July, August sometime that Last item would be additional secretary. Yeah. Mars coordite which takes away from the high school

79
00:30:05.919 --> 00:30:58.279
secretary side. secretary in the office that time additional 10 hours does cost the budget but they're not working so not will be hopefully some markets and see what we get internal external

80
00:31:09.391 --> 00:31:28.240
[snorts] Yeah, that's a good point. I was hoping to get some more. I don't think it's probably 4 to $6,000 increase because they're not a 10 month employee that was 12 month. Um, so it would be additional increase, but I think just

81
00:31:28.240 --> 00:31:46.720
the the structure that we have and different things, I do believe it's a good investment to make, especially the marketing piece. I do feel that putting Hopefully more students that way

82
00:31:46.720 --> 00:32:37.600
more money try to make sure it feels we have here be I would say my responsibility to start with personual obvious I think I have

83
00:32:37.600 --> 00:33:30.880
obviously experience that make sure our expectations clear and that kind of stuff ready to go. before starts coordinator become employee Mars duties

84
00:33:30.880 --> 00:33:51.360
on the candidates background. to become my secretary when I'm here. So that way the high school office my 20 hours that adding 10 hours

85
00:33:51.360 --> 00:34:09.200
JMC stuff that is for that administr yesterday we talked about having one person in charge of doing posting the applications for the job right now. There seems to be some nonicient things that are happening with

86
00:34:09.200 --> 00:34:44.480
who gets what information. We're trying to find a central source for that to help all the secretaries and all things No, that's that's unique just because the timeline that would mean the question will ask the candidates to see

87
00:34:44.480 --> 00:35:27.200
if they're qualified for just expect It's a great time. I was talking about yesterday. So talked yesterday about what are those individuals doing

89
00:36:00.320 --> 00:36:32.520
individuals and not the best years. We're still working on the council position couple ideas in mind. for that. Also,

90
00:36:50.240 --> 00:37:13.000
may have less demographic as well. Well, I think we talked about one point too. You can't just have there. So, those are pieces that havece

91
00:37:27.920 --> 00:37:53.880
I I would want to be very clear. It's just an opportunity for a system to recalibrate and say, "Okay, do we make a shift based on strength or areas of need for building I asked yesterday

92
00:37:55.200 --> 00:38:42.119
very north and south people don't steal them. All right. Any other discussion? Motion carries. Thanks,
