Board reviews four budget models; no public comment at Ainsworth retreat
Summary
Superintendent Hafer presented four budget options at the Aug. 25 board budget retreat; board members reviewed pros and cons and no patrons attended the allotted public-comment period.
During the Aug. 25 Board Budget Retreat the superintendent presented four distinct budget models for 2025-26 and provided supporting materials detailing spending, taxes and revenue. Board members examined the pros and cons of each option and discussed strategic direction; the retreat record notes the materials were provided in advance.
The board set aside time for public comment on the budget process, but "no patrons were in attendance that wished to provide public comment regarding the budget and process for 2025-26." The board concluded by recommending that Superintendent Hafer bring Budget Option 1 forward for consideration at the Sept. 8 hearings and meeting.
