Board packet shifts special-education and transportation spending lines
Summary
Staff told the board the draft budget reduces contracted special-education services from $2.5 million to $2.0 million, increases private-agency contracts to $2.5 million and adjusts transportation equipment totals; changes were made to meet maintenance-of-effort and presentation requirements.
Mister Sebastian described line-item edits in the consolidated draft budget, including reductions in contracted special-education services and adjustments in transportation equipment and private-agency contracts.
"The special education contracted services went from 2,500,000 to 2,000,000," Mister Sebastian said, and he added that contracts with private agencies were adjusted from 2,000,000 to 2,500,000. He said the transportation-equipment figure was rearranged so that the edits produced a net effect of zero on total expenses in the revised packet.
