Summary

The board approved a resolution certifying a mid‑decade population increase (to 28,024) that allows the district to claim about $1,000 in additional community education levy revenue for fiscal calculations.

The board approved a resolution June 30 certifying a population estimate of 28,024 for use in 2026 payable 2027 levy calculations. Director Henkkins explained that the state demographer’s estimate shows a population increase of roughly 120 people since the 2020 census, which permits the district to seek a small adjustment in levy-eligible revenue.

Henkkins said the additional revenue is modest — just over $1,000 — but could provide extra support for community education programs, youth services and adult and disability programming. The formal resolution was read, moved and adopted by roll-call vote.
