New Buffalo Area Schools board adopts 2025–26 fiscal budget
Summary
The New Buffalo Area Schools Board of Education on May 19 approved the district's 2025–26 fiscal budget per resolutions and passed related financial items, including consent approval of bills and payroll totals. The vote was unanimous.
The New Buffalo Area Schools Board of Education voted May 19 to adopt the 2025–26 fiscal budget following a recommendation from the superintendent and business manager.
"The Superintendent and Business Manager recommend the Board adopt the 2025-2026 fiscal budget (per resolutions)," the minutes state. The motion to adopt the budget was moved by Denise Churchill and seconded by Vanessa Thun and recorded as "All ayes, motion carried." The board earlier approved consent-agenda financial items that listed General Fund bills payable of $143,014.67 and payroll of $873,972.36 among other fund amounts.
Board members said the adoption finalizes the district's spending plan for the coming school year and allows staff to proceed with scheduled programs and obligations. The meeting record does not list line-item budget totals in the minutes excerpt; the board approved the budget "per resolutions," which are recorded as attached to the official minutes.
The board also certified the 2025 tax levy to the City of New Buffalo, New Buffalo Township and Chikaming Township at the same meeting, a routine step to allow local units to levy taxes based on the board's authorized millage.
