Elbert County C-2 Board adopts preliminary 2024–25 budget, ties resolution to C.R.S. 22-44-105
Summary
The Elbert County School District C-2 board approved a preliminary FY 2024–25 budget and associated appropriation resolution, noting use of beginning fund balance and that changes discussed in May will be incorporated before final adoption.
Elbert County School District C-2’s Board of Education voted June 19 to adopt a preliminary fiscal year 2024–25 budget and the accompanying appropriation resolution pursuant to state budget rules. The board approved the motion after asking administration to incorporate changes discussed at the May meeting; all present board members voted aye.
The resolution attached to the minutes cites C.R.S. 22-44-105 and lists fund appropriations including a General Fund appropriation of $5,501,388 and total appropriations across funds shown in the minutes as $7,408,061 in one table and $10,501,892 in a subsequent consolidated figure. The minutes state the board authorizes using portions of the beginning fund balance for specified purposes but that any spending from those balances requires separate board approval. The board also noted the Town of Kiowa’s planned 9% water-rate increase for next year as a cost factor to consider.
Clarifying details recorded in the meeting include the district’s statement that some state funds for high-cost special education students were received but not yet reflected in the adopted budget; administration said BOOS will quantify the budget impact by email to the board. The board read and adopted the full preliminary-budget resolution during the meeting.
