Board schedules public hearing June 18 on $5,002,000 budget amendment
Summary
Smyth County supervisors voted to schedule a public hearing for June 18 at 5 p.m. on Budget Amendment No. 7, a $5,002,000 adjustment that includes $2,000 in grant funds and $5,000,000 requested from the school board for higher-than-expected revenues and ESSER resources.
The budget committee recommended, and the board approved, scheduling a public hearing on Budget Amendment No. 7, which totals $5,002,000. Committee materials explained that $2,000 of the amendment is grant funding for a Commonwealth's Attorney junior attorney program and the remaining roughly $5,000,000 reflects school-related revenues and ESSER funds to cover expenditure changes.
The board voted to hold the public hearing on June 18 at 5:00 p.m. as required because the amendment exceeds the 1% threshold for mid-year budget adjustments. No final approval of the amendment was taken at the meeting; the hearing will be the next step for public comment and formal consideration.
