Board to file revenue‑neutral paperwork with Osage County; budget hearing set for September
Summary
District staff said they will submit revenue‑neutral (RNR) documents to Osage County to preserve the option to exceed the revenue‑neutral rate when the budget is developed; the proposed budget will be presented to the board in September with needs assessments in August.
District staff informed the board that the district will send revenue‑neutral (RNR) information to Osage County, identified as the district's home county, to preserve the option to exceed the revenue‑neutral rate if necessary when the budget is built. "We will then bring the budget to you in September, for approval," Staff member (Speaker 1) said, and the board was told needs assessments will be delivered in August for review.
Staff emphasized that filing RNR paperwork does not mean the district will exceed the rate; rather, it secures the option for later budget decisions. The district reported a clean closeout and rollover cash to begin the new year and plans to present detailed budgets and the public hearing schedule in September. Board members asked clarifying questions about timing and reiterated that any decision to actually exceed the revenue neutral rate will come after the budget is presented.
