Lebanon board approves 2026–27 budget package and sets debt‑service tax levy
Summary
The school board approved two resolutions to adopt the 2026–27 budget committee‑approved budget and to impose taxes for debt service for tax year 2026–27; the meeting record shows a motion, a second and that the motion 'carries' but no roll‑call tally is recorded in the transcript.
The Lebanon Community School District board moved to adopt the budget committee‑approved 2026–27 budget and to impose and categorize taxes for the district’s debt service for tax year 2026–27 during its meeting.
Staff presented two resolutions: (1) to adopt and make appropriations for the 2026–27 budget committee‑approved budget as presented in the meeting materials, and (2) to impose and categorize taxes for the district’s debt service for tax year 2026–27. In the meeting the debt‑service figure was read aloud as 4,716,321. A board member moved the motion, a second was recorded, and the chair stated the motion "carries." The transcript does not include a recorded roll‑call or individual vote tally.
Because the budget amount in the transcript appears garbled in the spoken record, the precise dollar figure for the committee‑approved budget is taken from the meeting materials rather than inferred from the audio transcript; the meeting materials should be consulted for the official budget total. The motion carried and staff will proceed with the appropriations and tax‑categorization steps required by law.
Next steps: staff will file and publish required budget documents and implement the tax‑levy categorization; if the board later needs to amend the budget, it will follow the statutory amendment process.
