St. Charles CUSD 303 board approves 2024-25 amended budget after brief public hearing
Summary
The St. Charles CUSD 303 Board of Education closed a brief public hearing and voted to approve the district's 2024-25 amended budget. A community member asked how the amendment would affect the 2025-26 budget; board members did not elaborate further during the hearing.
The St. Charles CUSD 303 Board of Education closed a public hearing on the district's 2024-25 amended budget and approved the amended budget at its June 9 regular meeting.
The public hearing was called to order at 6:01 p.m. and included an agenda packet with current cash balances as of June 30, 2024. During the hearing one community member asked, "how is this going to impact the 2526 budget?" No additional public questions were raised before the hearing was closed at 6:02 p.m.
After routine reports and committee updates, the board returned to the amended-budget item and voted to approve the Community Unit School District 303 2024-25 amended budget. The roll call recorded seven board members voting yes: Mrs. McCabe, Mrs. Rich, Mrs. Bell, Mrs. Hancock, Mr. Kuchert, Mr. Lackner and Mrs. Fairgrieve. The motion passed.
The budget had been discussed previously at the district business services committee on April 28 and was approved for public display and public hearing at a special school board meeting on April 28. The agenda packet for the June 9 meeting included the district's current cash balance report as of June 30, 2024, which the board referenced when opening the hearing.
No follow-up action or amendment to the 2025-26 budget was described during the hearing; community members seeking detail on the effect to 2025-26 were not given a timeline for a written or staff follow-up at the public hearing itself. The board proceeded with other agenda items after the vote.
