Summary

Trustees approved the consent agenda, which included construction items (track resurfacing, turf, canopies) and insurance items. Staff reported an unassigned beginning balance of about $65 million and a three‑month reserve of $43.4 million after TEA recommendations, leaving roughly $10 million available in the capital bucket for projects.

The board moved and approved the consent agenda, which included purchasing and construction items scheduled for summer such as West Local High stadium turf, track resurfacing and fencing modifications. David reviewed capital activity and fund‑balance figures: the district began the fiscal year with roughly $65,000,000 unassigned funds, would set aside a TEA‑recommended three‑month reserve (about $43,400,000) and had spent approximately $12,000,000 on approved projects to date, leaving roughly $10,000,000 from that bucket for upcoming work.

Trustees asked for further detail in June about line‑by‑line expenditures so they could compare instructional and non‑instructional allocations. The board also approved a set of construction allowance expenditures and administrative rankings to enable negotiations for track and turf work.
