Topock Elementary School District approves FY26 adopted budget and Truth in Taxation

The Topock Elementary School District #12 Governing Board unanimously adopted the district's fiscal year 2026 adopted budget and approved a Truth in Taxation notice at its regular meeting on July 14, 2025, held at Topock Elementary School.

The action took place during the meeting's business agenda. Governing Board member Joe Gardner moved to approve the Adopted Budget FY26 and the Truth in Taxation notice; Governing Board member Christine Juarez seconded the motion. The minutes record that the motion passed with all members in favor.

Earlier in the meeting the board approved routine consent items. Governing Board member Darlene Spiegel moved to approve the consent agenda, which included approval of minutes from June 19, 2025; accounts payable numbers AP# 2062, 2063, 2064 and 3001; and payroll numbers #2529 and #2601. Christine Juarez seconded the motion, and the minutes state the board voted unanimously to approve these items.

The agenda lists a Superintendent report under 'Reports'; the minutes note that the superintendent's report occurred but provide no substantive details. The minutes also record that future meetings will return to the normal schedule of the third Thursday of the month at 4:00 p.m. This scheduling note appears under "Items for the next meeting" rather than as a separately recorded vote.

The meeting was called to order at 5:00 p.m., opened with the Pledge of Allegiance, and adjourned after a motion by Governing Board member Darlene Spiegel and a second from Joe Gardner; the minutes indicate the adjournment passed unanimously. The meeting notice and minutes include an ADA accommodation statement with a contact phone number for the Superintendent's office (928-768-3344). The agenda was posted by M. Curtis on July 10, 2025.

No public-comment details, debates, or substantive objections to the budget or other actions are recorded in the minutes.
