Dufur board closes budget hearing; May revenue forecast shows $74,000 shortfall
Summary
The board closed the district's budget hearing after reports and scheduled formal adoption for June 23; the business officer reported the May revenue forecast was weak and noted a $74,000 reduction in expected funds that will be accounted for in upcoming appropriations.
The board kept the budget hearing open through reports and then closed it after asking for public comment; no public comment was offered on the budget and the chair announced the board will adopt the budget at its June 23 meeting. The business officer (speaker 10) told the board the May revenue forecast was weaker than expected and that roughly $74,000 would be subtracted from anticipated revenue, requiring modest appropriations before the fiscal year ends.
Board members discussed timing and noted the district will finalize appropriation adjustments at the next meeting. "The May revenue forecast was not great," the finance officer said, and the district is preparing to make small year-end appropriations to account for increased expenditures tied to new hires.
