San Elizario ISD Board adopts Official Budget for 2025–26; tax-rate increase flagged for later planning
Summary
The Board adopted the district's Official Budget for 2025–26 by unanimous vote and discussed the possibility of raising the local tax rate and consolidating buildings; the transcript does not list dollar amounts for the approved budget.
The San Elizario ISD Board of Trustees approved the district's Official Budget for the 2025–2026 school year in a unanimous 7–0 vote on June 18, 2025.
Vice-President Myrna Hernandez moved to approve the Official Budget; Trustee Axel Lopez seconded the motion. The minutes record the vote as Yea: 7, Nay: 0.
At the time of presentation, Board President Eduardo Chavez said the district "might need to come up with a plan to increase the tax rate and possible building consolidation" as part of long-term fiscal planning. Ms. Elizabeth Perez presented the Proposed Budget and Proposed Tax Rate; the transcript records discussion of the tax-rate possibility but does not show the board taking a tax-rate increase vote at this meeting.
Why it matters: the Official Budget establishes the district's spending plan for the year. The June 18 minutes do not include the budget's dollar totals or the adopted tax rate; those amounts were not specified in the meeting record and will be required for public transparency when published with the official budget documents.
