Board schedules tax‑appraisal board nominations and reviews routine bond and financial reports

The Leander ISD board received routine updates on upcoming nominations to county appraisal district (CAD) boards, bond reporting and monthly financials.

CAD nominations: Assistant superintendent Pete Pape said Williamson and Travis CADs changed statutory notification dates; the district must receive CAD nomination information by Oct. 1 and return a trustee nomination by Oct. 15. The administration asked trustees to submit candidate suggestions by Sept. 19 for inclusion on the Oct. 9 board agenda.

Bond and finance reports: Monthly bond and bond‑oversight reports showed standard activity; the district said it will annotate the 2021 and 2023 bond pages to show oversight committee approvals and retroactive items. The investment report showed approximately $2.6 million in interest earnings for July across funds. The tax collection report indicated collections at about 99.2% for the fiscal year to date.

Budget and capacity planning: Trustees asked administration to provide updated capacity analyses and a recommendation timeline tied to fall budget conversations; administration said staff will present capacity updates in the coming workshop and continue budget planning through the fall.

Ending: The board accepted the monthly reports for review and asked for follow‑up materials on capacity, bond oversight annotations and a schedule of next steps toward the 2026–27 budget cycle.
