Ajo Unified District reviews 2025 tax-credit report and tables JLM report to next month (3–0)
Summary
Staff summarized the district’s 2025 tax-credit report—listing donor counts and examples of expenditures such as trophies and program supports—and the board voted 3–0 to table the JLM report until the next meeting.
District staff presented the Ajo Unified District’s 2025 tax-credit report filed with the Arizona Department of Revenue and described how donor-restricted tax-credit funds were used during the year.
Staff said the report lists donor counts, amounts and uses for each school. The presenter gave examples including funding used for sports-field chalk/paint and end-of-year trophies (example amount cited: $1,100), a Canyon Athletic Association cheer workshop (example: $900), and support for the district’s culinary/CT programming (example amount cited: $3,500 for culinary/CT supports and food-handling card costs).
“...using the funds here to pay for these set activities. That way it's not taken from ML and other budget sources,” staff said, describing how tax-credit funds supplement other budget lines.
Later in the agenda staff and board members agreed to postpone the JLM report until next month. Board members moved to table the JLM report; the motion was seconded and the recorded vote was three in favor, none opposed.
The tax-credit report was provided as an informational attachment in the study session; staff did not request a formal action on the tax-credit report itself during this meeting.
