Dinwiddie School Board approves $981,394 in rollovers, $2.1M in supplemental FY2026 spending
Summary
The Dinwiddie County School Board approved FY2026 supplemental appropriations that roll forward year-end balances and fund capital needs including Midway Auditorium upgrades and tennis-court repairs; the board approved supplemental revenue of $981,394 and expenditure authority of $2.1 million by voice vote.
The Dinwiddie County School Board on Monday approved supplemental budget adjustments that roll forward unspent FY2025 balances and provide additional spending authority for capital and program needs.
Kristi Fleming told the board the supplemental request aligns the school division’s books with action taken by the Board of Supervisors in January and moves year-end balances into the appropriate funds. Fleming said Fund 302 (capital projects) includes $981,394 in revenue to be reappropriated and that total supplemental expenditures requested amount to $2.1 million, with identified projects including upgrades to the Midway Auditorium and tennis-court repairs.
Fleming described the mechanics of the request: certain balances remaining in Fund 205 (school operations) will be reallocated to small-capital projects, Fund 206 (textbooks) and Fund 207 (school nutrition) reflect unspent items that must remain in their designated funds, and Fund 303 holds grant dollars that carry forward. She said some projects rolled into Fund 302 represent work still in progress and therefore must be carried into the new fiscal year.
Board members asked clarifying questions about which funds would pay for specific repairs and whether the County had already approved corresponding changes. Fleming said the Board of Supervisors had acted in January and that both boards must approve the school-division adjustments.
A board member moved to approve the supplemental appropriations as presented; a second was given and the motion carried by voice vote. No roll-call vote or individual tallies were recorded in the meeting minutes presented at the session.
What’s next: The supplemental appropriation provides spending authority for the identified projects and allows the division to continue unfinished work into FY2026; board members did not request further action beyond the approval.
