Wilmington school board reviews budget workshop, ratifies $1.24 million in bills
Summary
At its Aug. 11 meeting the Wilmington CUSD 209‑U board reviewed a superintendent‑led budget workshop, heard summer project updates and ratified $1,240,538.39 in accounts payable and multiple payroll runs from June–July; trustees also authorized future payroll ratifications.
The Wilmington Community Unit School District No. 209‑U Board of Education on Aug. 11 received a budget workshop from Superintendent Kevin Feeney and approved routine financial ratifications covering June and July. The board ratified AP bills totaling $1,240,538.39 and multiple payroll disbursements as listed in the consent agenda; motions to approve the consent agenda passed with recorded aye votes and two members absent earlier in the meeting.
Feeney framed the budget discussion around completed summer projects and upcoming utility contract timing, saying the district will seek the most competitive gas and electric rates before the current contract ends in December 2025. The consent agenda listing included specific payroll wires and check runs and authorized the board to ratify the Aug. 15 and Aug. 29 payroll at the September meeting. The board recorded votes on motions throughout the meeting (for example, the consent agenda motion carried with Alberico recorded as arriving later and Dziuban absent).
