Summary
Tom Bean ISD trustees unanimously approved multiple FY2023–24 budget amendments Aug. 26, increasing several function totals across Funds 199, 240 and 599, including a $210,000 increase to Function 34 in Fund 199 and $140,000 to Function 71 in Fund 599.
At a special meeting on Aug. 26, 2024, the Tom Bean Independent School District Board of Trustees unanimously approved a set of midyear budget amendments for fiscal year 2023–24 that reallocated funds across several functions and funds.
Board member Shawna Merriman moved to increase specific function totals in Fund 199 — including Function 21 by $5,000; Function 23 by $20,000; Function 34 by $210,000; Function 35 by $1,000; Function 36 by $35,000; Function 61 by $2,000; and Function 81 by $120,000. The motion also increased Fund 240 Function 35 by $25,000 and Fund 599 Function 71 by $140,000. James Hamilton seconded the motion, which carried 7–0.
The board record shows the motion passed without amendment or recorded conditions. No board member requested that staff provide a line‑by‑line reconciliation during the special meeting; Superintendent Steve Goodman had given a financial update earlier in the meeting but no additional documentary detail was entered into the minutes for the amendments. The board's vote was recorded as seven in favor and none opposed.
The amendments move district resources between program functions within the district's existing fund structure for FY2023–24; the minutes do not specify precise program names tied to each numeric function in this record. The board did not attach a public hearing or separate staff report to the amendments during the special meeting.
