Alachua school board unanimously votes to advertise 2026–27 tentative budget and millage
Summary
The Alachua County School Board voted 5-0 to advertise the 2026–27 tentative budget and proposed millage rates for public notice after staff presented TRIM/rollback calculations and answered questions about capital funding and COPS financing.
The Alachua County School Board voted unanimously, 5-0, to advertise the district’s proposed tentative 2026–27 budget and tentative millage rates for public notice and statutory publication. The motion to advertise was moved by Miss Sutton and seconded by Dr. Rockwell; the chair called the vote and recorded five ayes and no opposition.
Board staff led by Mr. Renick presented the TRIM (truth in millage) and rollback calculations that underlie the proposed millage rates and budget. Mr. Renick explained the mechanics of the rollback comparison — converting last year’s revenue requirement into a millage figure for the current tax roll — and walked the board through the published numbers that inform the advertisement. After discussion about presentation formatting and specific line items, the board approved the advertisement package that will appear in the statutory newspaper notice.
