Board supports MCISD 2026–2027 budget resolution; one trustee votes no citing fund-balance questions
Summary
The board voted to support the MCISD 2026–2027 budget resolution (Yea: 4, Nay: 1, Absent: 2). Trustee Carol Reaume voted against citing insufficient clarity about the ISD fund balance; Superintendent Leach explained the ISD's outcome is decided by the ISD board.
The Dundee Community Schools Board voted on May 11, 2026 to approve the MCISD 2026–2027 budget resolution as presented, with one recorded dissent and two absences.
Trustee Crystal Root moved and Patricia Motylinski seconded the motion. The recorded vote was Yea: 4, Nay: 1 (Trustee Carol Reaume), Absent: 2. Trustee Reaume said she had concerns about the budget as presented and said she did not receive a full understanding of the response from the MCISD to her questions; she would have liked to see more clarity on the fund balance before supporting the resolution. Superintendent Leach responded that the intermediate school district (MCISD) has its own board of education and that Dundee's vote would not change the ISD's outcome; he suggested the board could register a separate conversation with the ISD about Dundee's concerns.
The minutes record the board's support for the resolution but also document the trustee's objection about transparency on fund balances.
