Denton County MHMR trustees approve revised budget, bylaws and reserve policy
Summary
At their April 27 meeting the Denton County MHMR Center Board of Trustees approved revised FY2026 budget documents, updated board bylaws and a fund balance/reserve policy; motions passed unanimously on each item.
DENTON — The Denton County MHMR Center Board of Trustees on April 27 approved a set of governance and financial items, including a revised FY2026 budget, updated board bylaws and Policy 2.107 on retention of fund balance/reserve.
Dianne Hickey, Board chair and Finance Committee chair, reported that March 2026 financial results showed a net loss of $38,687 for the month (better than the board‑approved budgeted loss of $55,342) and a cumulative year‑to‑date net profit of $705,296 (versus a budgeted profit of $56,131). Hickey said the numbers reflected a favorable variance to budget and stronger‑than‑anticipated financial performance. The board voted unanimously to approve the financial statements and the revised FY2026 budget.
The Personnel Committee brought two governance items to the board. Brooke Hambrick, Personnel Committee vice‑chair, moved that the board approve revised Board of Trustees bylaws; the motion passed unanimously. Hambrick also moved to adopt Policy 2.107, Retention of Fund Balance/Reserve, which the board approved unanimously.
All motions recorded in the minutes passed by unanimous vote; where committee chairs presented items the minutes note the motions were made by the respective committee. The board did not record any dissenting votes or conditions attached to the approvals.
The board also accepted Planning, Network, and Advisory Committee (PNAC) recommendations presented by Veronica Armendariz, Senior Director of Quality Management/Utilization Management; Ron Marchant moved to accept the recommendations and Cynthia Jones, Ph.D., seconded. That motion also passed unanimously.
The board listed the formal approvals in its minutes and will publish the updated bylaws and policy following internal processing and posting procedures.
