Marion board approves consent agenda; finance update shows spending above conservative targets
Summary
The board approved consent agenda items 26-123 through 26-134 by roll call and received a finance update showing education and operations funds each at about 41% of annual appropriations, above the district's conservative 33.3% pacing target; staff said summer months should reduce the spending rate.
The Marion Community Schools board approved the consent agenda (items 26-123 through 26-134) by a single motion and roll-call vote. The recorded responses on the roll call were: Mrs. G, Miss Salo, Dr. Hart, Mr. Delgado, Mrs. Bento and Mr. Beck each voting in the affirmative; the presiding officer announced the motion carried.
In a business update, Kyle Mey reviewed the district dashboards. He said the education fund is at about 41.3% of its appropriations year to date, compared with the district's conservative pacing target of 33.3%. Mey reported month-to-date spending of roughly $2.85 million and year-to-date education expenditures around $12.5 million. For operations, he said total appropriations exceed $12 million and year-to-date operations spending is approximately $5.1 million, at about 42.4% spent. Mey said summer months typically reduce spending and that he did not see any drastic problems at this time.
Board members had no further questions on the consent items and then moved to other agenda business.
