Parents Debate the Budget!
Hi all,
It is my understanding that the district has submitted interim reports indicating a qualified status (which means it will not have the required reserves projected two years out). A negative status means the reserves are not available in the current or next year.
The current adopted budget for 2010-11 has a positive certification. I would not be surprised if the county changes this to qualified due to the various unspecified cuts assumed in the last two years of the projections.
In my opinion much of this is a game played by administration and the county to keep the pressure on the bargaining units. Otherwise they would take the changes from adopted to actual budgets much more seriously. A lot of the pain is caused by manipulation by some staff and a lack of sophisticated fiscal management by other staff. Though I can't figure out who is who :(
Attached are the reserve projections from last year's and this year's budget. As I hope you can see, the amounts vary and are always above the standard. Though
