Committee plans updated five‑year projections and to explore referendum to restore programs

School District 45, DuPage County Finance Committee · May 14, 2026

Summary

The Finance Committee listed follow-up items including updated five‑year financial projections reflecting higher insurance and potential mandated cuts, and a referendum proposal to determine an amount and the programs that would be restored if approved.

The committee recorded several items for staff follow‑up under "Other Items for Discussion Related to Finance." The agenda text directs staff to "Prepare updated 5 year financial projections, reflecting higher-than-expected insurance increase and potential mandated categorical cuts" and to develop a "Referendum proposal" that identifies the referendum amount and which programs would be restored in conjunction with that amount.

Those action items indicate the district is moving from discussion toward planning: staff will analyze the financial outlook under stress scenarios and prepare options for the committee to consider, including whether a referendum is necessary to restore programs. The minutes do not identify a sponsor for these agenda bullets; they appear as follow-up directives to staff without a named mover.
