The Chilton County Schools board reviewed November and December financial reports and approved routine personnel and consent-agenda items at its meeting.
Unidentified Speaker 3 presented the November report, saying, "For the second month of the fiscal year, we should be at 17%." He reported that November revenues and other financing sources were 10.62% of the budget while expenditures were at 16.33%. He listed accounts payable at $3,028,069.11 and gross payroll at $6,824,121.71 ("that includes the Christmas supplement"). The superintendent reported an ending general fund balance of $52,309,178.23 for November, described as 6.34 months in reserve.
In the December update Unidentified Speaker 3 stated the district was near the third-month benchmark (25%). The transcript reads "20 23.86 percent" for budgeted revenues (formatting in the transcript is unclear) and shows expenditures at 23.7% of budget; the December ending general fund balance was reported as $57,597,124.27 (7.3 months in reserve). The board did not provide a roll-call vote on the financial report in the transcript; when asked, the chair called for a motion, Unidentified Speaker 1 moved to approve, and the chair declared "Motion carries." (The transcript contains formatting fragments on the December accounts payable line; those values are reported as they appear in the record.)
The board approved personnel items covering retirements, new hires, substitutes and supplements (including items listed as "Isabella's supplement" and a "CCHS long term supplement"). The consent agenda passed and included minutes, a memorandum of understanding with Troy University, disposals, an LCTC travel request and a volunteer approval for Thorsby High School. A separate motion to approve LCT out-of-state professional development travel passed with no members recorded as opposed and with '1 abstain' noted in the transcript; the abstaining member is not named in the record.
Actions recorded in the meeting included approval of the financial report, personnel items, consent agenda items, and the LCT travel request. The meeting adjourned after brief board comments.
