The rest of the meeting will cover a resolution and a report with a discussion on the Governor’s budget. The resolution is brought forward by Roxanne Egan, Bond Director, to allow the District to apply for Proposition 51 grant monies. These funds do not need to be repaid and no debt is incurred by the District. Tim Rahill, Chief Business Official, will give a report on the Governor’s budget. Mr. Rahill and Dr. Young will attend a workshop next week covering the Governor’s budget presented by School Services.
