School districts operate on a fiscal year that runs from 01 September to
31 August. The District’s budget for the upcoming fiscal year must be approved
by the Board before the end of June of the current year. To meet this timeline,
a staff-recommended budget was presented to the Committee of the Whole
Budget (COW Budget) on 31 May 2023 and several meetings are scheduled to obtain
comment from the public, to provide the Board with an opportunity to establish
the District’s priorities and to refine the allocation of resources.
The tentative public meeting dates at which budget matters will be
discussed are:
12 June
2023 Budget
debate*
19 June
2023 Budget
debate*
* COW Budget may make its recommendation at either the 12
June or the 19 June meeting. A special Board meeting may be held
immediately following COW Budget's recommendation.
