Staff reports roughly $193,000 in certificated savings; committee asks for updated forecast
Summary
Facilities and finance staff told the subcommittee they have identified about $193,000 in certificated savings and another ~$48,000 from not refilling classified positions; the committee asked staff to return an updated fiscal forecast in September or October to show the gap for 2025‑26.
Staff presented operational savings driven by retirements and position changes, and committee members requested an updated budget forecast that incorporates recent enrollment increases. "So in essence, about $193,000 saved," said Miles Malone while summarizing certificated staffing changes. Malone added the district expects roughly $48,000 in classified savings by not refilling a behavior aide and an instructional aide.
Committee members emphasized the need for a preliminary forecast before the first interim report to show how increased average daily attendance (ADA) affects the district's year‑end position. Chair asked staff to produce a rough draft projection for September or October that includes the new enrollment and the cost‑saving measures the team identified.
Members discussed moving some expenditures into fund 14 (deferred maintenance) and developer fees to free general fund capacity. The subcommittee requested the updated forecast to guide decisions about whether additional reductions or revenue measures are necessary.
