Buena Park board adopts 2026–27 budget and LCAP, approves contracts and multiple resolutions
Summary
At its June 25 meeting the board adopted the 2026–27 Local Control and Accountability Plan and the district budget, approved several resolutions including interfund transfers and personnel actions, and approved employment contracts and amendments for the superintendent and assistant superintendents; votes were recorded in the transcript as passing by the present trustees.
The Buena Park School District Board of Trustees on June 25 approved the district’s 2026–27 Local Control and Accountability Plan (LCAP) and adopted the 2026–27 district budget, along with a slate of personnel and fiscal resolutions and contract approvals.
Trustees moved and seconded the motions to adopt the LCAP and the budget during the action calendar; the motions were recorded in the meeting transcript as passing (notation in the record indicates the motions passed with the vote summary recorded as 'passes 401').
The board also adopted Resolution No. 25-27 authorizing temporary interfund transfers of restricted or special fund monies for the 2026–27 fiscal year. A subsequent Resolution No. 25-28, concerning local assignment options for multiple-subject teachers at Buena Park Middle School, was also adopted.
On personnel matters, the board approved memoranda of understanding with the California School Employees Association (CSEA) Chapter 569, tentative agreements for classified staff, proposed changes in employment terms for confidential and management employees, and a proposed change in salary placement for an elementary assistant principal position. The consent calendar was approved after trustee consideration; item H was withdrawn from consent by request and taken separately.
Pursuant to state law, the board read aloud required oral summaries of proposed employment agreements for the superintendent and two assistant superintendents before voting. The oral summary in the record included term dates, schedule steps, an automobile allowance, and benefits; the transcript renders one salary figure in the oral reading as '297,32' and the posted agenda materials accompany the contract summaries. The oral summary stated a $500 monthly automobile allowance and health and welfare benefits comparable to other 12-month management employees, including $20,000 in life insurance.
After the oral disclosures, the board approved the superintendent’s employment contract and amendments for assistant superintendents. The transcript records the contract approvals as passing among trustees present (recorded vote notation in the transcript). Trustees thanked administrators for their work and expressed appreciation for the leadership team.
Why it matters: adoption of the LCAP and the budget sets district priorities and authorizes the spending plan for the coming school year; contract approvals enact multi-year employment terms for senior administrators. The oral summaries fulfill the Government Code disclosure required before action on local agency executive agreements.
