Frenship ISD sets Aug. 24 public hearing on the 2026–27 budget and proposes tax-rate notice
Summary
Legal counsel recommended publishing notice Aug. 3 and holding a public hearing Aug. 24 to adopt the 2026–27 budget and the proposed tax rate; transcript includes statutory citations and a quoted proposed tax-rate figure that is garbled in the record.
Frenship ISD staff recommended the board call a public meeting to discuss and adopt the 2026–27 budget and the proposed tax rate, and trustees approved the recommendation. Counsel stated the district will publish notice in the local paper (the Avalanche Journal) and on the district website on Aug. 3 and hold the public hearing on Aug. 24 at 7:00 p.m. in the Casey Administration Boardroom.
Legal counsel (speaker 3) summarized statutory timing: "The board shall adopt a tax rate for each fiscal year as required by tax code 26.05" and referenced Education Code 11.1511(b)(9). During the presentation counsel read proposed rates; the audio/transcript punctuation makes the numerical phrasing unclear. The transcript records a maintenance-and-operations rate and a debt-service rate and a combined figure, but the numbers are garbled in the recording. Trustees moved, seconded and the motion to set the date and publish the proposed tax rate carried.
