Discuss, Consider and Take Necessary Action to Adopt Property Tax Request Resolution for 2022-2023 Budget Year as Presented at Joint Agency Meeting Matt O'Daniel asked Dr Lewis to share and go over all of her budget documents again for all present. Dr. Lewis spoke on the budget document that will be provided to the state. She spoke of the necessary cash reserves, and the high balance in the depreciation fund last year. Deprecation was spent on funding the new building project, and a $750,000 transfer. The need will be this year to rebuild the necessary cash reserves back to protect the school throughout the next few years on finances that will occur for spending and salaries. This year’s budget significantly reduced some of the spending in accounts to get us lower for the tax asking for this year. We were able to use some Essers (grant funds) funds last year that helped offset the costs from the 21-22 year. Money from the depreciation fund was spent on the new building new addition to help with the need to ask for a bond (which would have made the tax levy much higher last year) Dr. Lewis reminded everyone that this information was all presented and posted in August and September, and that the board approved the budget back in August. All info was posted prior to the special tax earning and the County tax hearing in Blair.
