Summary
The board opened a public hearing on the FY25 budget, received no oral or written comments, closed the hearing, and approved an amendment to the fiscal year 2025 budget as presented.
The Muscatine Community School District Board of Education opened a public hearing May 12 to consider an amendment to the fiscal year 2025 budget, received no public comments, and approved the budget amendment.
Board members formally opened the hearing, took a roll call vote to open, solicited oral and written comments and reported none were received, then moved to close the hearing and voted to approve the amendment to FY25 as presented.
District staff later explained that one of the reasons for the amendment was to account for the curriculum cycle purchases and that the one-time expenditure did not raise spending-authority concerns in the general fund. Staff reaffirmed that the amendment would allow the district to recognize and pay for purchases such as curriculum materials within the FY25 budget framework.
The board’s approval followed standard public-hearing procedure and no changes to the amendment were recorded at the meeting.
