Summary

Finance staff told the Board that fiscal 2026 ended with $120,747 remaining in contingency (the year began with $1.3 million) and that contingency for fiscal 2027 begins at $500,000 with no current requests.

Tom told the board the fiscal 2026 contingency closed with $120,747 remaining out of an initial $1,300,000 appropriation for the year; the two largest impacts during the year were school resource officer overtime and early‑voting/registrar costs, plus snow and ice removal.

Looking ahead, Tom said fiscal 2027 begins with a $500,000 contingency account and there are no requests against it so far. He said staff will present the final FY26 transfer roll‑ups at the next meeting to show department surpluses and needs prior to reallocation.
