Big Spring board adopts 2026–27 investment plan after discussion
Summary
The board approved a 2026–27 investment plan that will use permissible investments under the Pennsylvania School Code and an LGIP strategy; a board member raised questions about form use and board oversight.
The board voted to approve the district's 2026–27 investment plan and accompanying LGIP collateral documentation at the Sept. 21 meeting after brief discussion about board oversight and the form used by the LGIP provider.
"I am happy that we have put an investment policy in place as our auditors have suggested," a board member said, and asked why the investment plan form appeared to be the LGIP provider's standard template rather than a document the board had seen previously.
Administration explained the plan will use permissible investments under Pennsylvania School Code section 440.1 and that the length and type of fixed investments will be determined by project cash-flow needs; the plan will not use nonpermissible investment strategies. The motion to approve the plan was moved, seconded and carried as presented.
