Clovis Unified Board adopts 2026-27 budget, commits fund balance and approves personnel moves
Summary
The Clovis Unified Governing Board adopted the district's 2026-27 budget and a GASB-related resolution to earmark portions of the general fund for capital and stabilization, approved several job descriptions and awarded construction bids. All motions passed unanimously 6-0.
The Clovis Unified School District Governing Board on June 10 adopted the districtwide budget for 2026-27 and approved a resolution committing portions of the General Fund ending fund balance to capital equipment, textbooks, technology refresh and a 10% stabilization amount.
The actions came during a routine business meeting at the Professional Development Building, where the board voted 6-0 to adopt the budget and pass Resolution No. 4098. The motion to adopt the budget was moved by Board Member Steven Fogg and seconded by Board Member Clinton Olivier; the motion to adopt Resolution No. 4098 was moved by Board Member Fogg and seconded by Board Member Hugh Awtrey.
Why it matters: Adopting a district budget establishes planned spending and reserves for the coming school year and the GASB-related resolution signals the board nd district—ommitment to set aside portions of the ending fund balance for specific purposes, including a stabilization amount intended to provide fiscal flexibility.
Other key decisions at the meeting included approval of two new job descriptions (District Attendance Coordinator and Financial Specialist), adoption of the 2027-28 school calendar, and approval of multiple construction and supplies awards including Bid No. 3075 (Nelson Modernization Phase II) and RFQ No. 3081 (construction management services). These motions carried 6-0.
The board also ratified routine purchase orders and change orders and authorized the use of cooperative purchasing and existing contracts under Public Contract Code 20118 to allow certain purchases without separate formal bidding.
Next steps: The adopted budget takes effect for the 2026-27 fiscal year and the district will proceed with the capital and procurement activities authorized by the board; specifics on bid contract awards and implementation timelines were not specified in the meeting record.
