Board adopts 2026–27 budget calendar and seeks budget committee volunteers
Summary
Board approved a draft budget calendar for 2026–27 after the business manager presented a schedule mirroring prior years and noted two budget committee positions with expired terms; staff will reach out to potential committee members.
Melanie, the district business manager, presented a draft budget calendar for the 2026–27 cycle that mirrors the prior year—s schedule and includes additional detail intended to avoid missed posting requirements. She highlighted the need to follow posting deadlines after auditors found a missed posting for a mid-year budget change in the prior year.
"In your packet, you have a summarized budget calendar. We're mirroring what you guys have worked with in the past," Melanie said, describing the draft and asking the board to flag any conflicts. The board discussed two budget committee positions with expired terms (position 1 and 2) and asked staff to contact incumbents; if they do not renew, staff will advertise the openings and accept community applications.
After brief discussion the board moved, seconded and approved the 2026–27 budget calendar as presented. Board members suggested additional work sessions or deeper budget deep dives during development to ensure understanding of state school fund mechanics and to prepare for the budget development season.
