Treasurer (identified later in the transcript as Pete) outlined the proposed FY27 tax budget beginning July 1, 2026, warning that recent property tax reform and enrollment declines could reduce local revenue and drive earlier deficits; presented preliminary forecasts showing a 6–7% hit for the district, a possible $1.54M decrease in 2026 growing to roughly $4.23M annually in later years, and declining cash days toward the board policy minimum of 75 days.
