Lake Ridge New Tech board adopts 2026 budget package, authorizes bus replacements
Summary
At a Oct. 27 special meeting, the Lake Ridge New Tech Schools board approved a package of 2026 fiscal resolutions covering the annual budget, capital projects, authorization for bus replacements, an intra-fund transfer from the education operations fund, and a reduction of rainy day fund appropriations; the motion carried, recorded as “zero nays.”
The Lake Ridge New Tech Schools Board of Trustees approved a package of 2026 fiscal resolutions at a special meeting Oct. 27, 2025, at the district education center. The package included the fiscal-year budget resolution, a capital projects resolution, a bus replacement resolution, authorization to transfer funds from the education operations fund, and a resolution to reduce appropriations in the rainy day fund.
The item was presented to the board and then called for a motion by the presiding officer (Chair). A board member identified in the transcript as Miss Ne moved to approve the package; the motion was seconded by board member Mr. Buckley. The transcript records the presiding officer asking "All in favor?" and later notes "zero nays" and "motion carries." The meeting record indicates all board members and the superintendent were present for the vote; the transcript does not provide a separate numeric aye tally.
Board action authorizes several district-level fiscal steps at once: adopting the 2026 budget, authorizing capital projects, allowing replacement of school buses, permitting a transfer from the education operations fund, and reducing rainy-day appropriations. The board did not expand on implementation details in the recorded discussion; no amendments or conditions were recorded in the transcript.
After the vote the board moved to adjourn. Mr. Buckley made the motion to adjourn and Miss Ne seconded; the presiding officer recorded the vote language and declared the meeting adjourned. The meeting was convened in the school board meeting room of the education center and had been called as a special meeting for Oct. 27, 2025.
The transcript does not include detailed figures for the adopted budget or the exact dollar amounts to be transferred or reduced from the rainy day fund; those figures are not specified in the recorded segments and would appear in the formal resolution documents or the district’s posted agenda backup.
