Winston County Board of Education approves fiscal 2025 budget after second hearing
Summary
The Winston County Board of Education voted unanimously Sept. 4, 2024, to adopt its fiscal 2025 budget after a second hearing in which the budget presenter said there were no public comments and that 16th‑section interest revenue is lower this year and was budgeted conservatively.
The Winston County Board of Education voted unanimously on Sept. 4, 2024, to approve its fiscal 2025 budget after a brief second budget hearing in which the district said there were no public comments or requested changes.
The budget presenter told the board she had received "no response forms and no questions so no changes were made." A board member asked specifically about revenue from the local "16th-section" land fund; the presenter replied that interest income "is less this year" and that she had budgeted conservatively because interest rates can change.
The vote to adopt the FY2025 budget followed the meeting’s routine business. Earlier in the session the board established the forum, approved the meeting agenda by unanimous vote and heard an invocation led by Mr. Finley. After the budget vote, board members discussed scheduling details for an upcoming event and then moved to adjourn; the adjournment motion also passed unanimously.
Votes at a glance: the transcript records unanimous approval of the meeting agenda, unanimous adoption of the fiscal 2025 budget, and unanimous approval to adjourn; the board recorded each as "all voted for it" with no roll-call tally provided in the transcript.
The meeting was called to order by the presiding officer, the chair, and adjourned later the same day; the chair thanked attendees and noted refreshments were available upstairs.
