Approval: Xcel Energy Underground Electric Distribution Easement for the Property at Fair Oaks Elementary The motion carried unanimously. Kelly Benusa, Director of Business Services, stated that the School Board approved the original operating fund revenue and expenditure budget for 2007-08 at the June 19, 2007 meeting. She stated that in the fall of 2007, the School Board approved adjustments of $126,701 for purchase order carryovers, exemplary grants, shared decision making, and other miscellaneous items. We have recalculated the revenue forecast based upon final student enrollments for 2006-2007, the five-year enrollment projection
MID-YEAR ADJUSTMENTS completed in December 2007, and actual enrollment in January 2008. Our review results in an increase to revenues in the General Fund – Operating/Transportation of $3,711,410, (see attached for detailed sheets.) Ms. Benusa stated that during 2007-2008, special education revenue is calculated using current expenditures rather than a two-year lag. However, at this time the Special Education Excess Cost Revenue projection model from the Minnesota Department of Education has yet to be made available to districts for 2007-2008. We reviewed all significant General Fund operating expenditure areas, noting many small increases and decreases to individual accounts. Salaries $ 733,439 Benefits $ 1,397,175 Purchased services ($1,573,987) Supplies and other exp. ($1,128,677) Total decrease in exp. ($ 572,050) Overall, our General Fund Operating/Transportation Mid-Year Budget Amendment results in an increase of $3,711,410 in revenues or 1.90% and a decrease of ($572,050) in expenditures or (0.27%) from our adopted budget for 2007-2008. It is important to remember that the amended 2007-2008 budget forms the basis for the 2008- 2009 budget projection. The Food Service revenue budget will be increased $122,000 and the expenditure budget will be decreased by ($100,500) for a net positive change of $222,500. Revenues are being increased mainly due to the federal rate changing by 4%. Expenditures are being decreased mainly for food and supplies, which partially offset a 28% increase in the cost of milk. The Community Education expenditure increased by $109,120 due to increased benefit costs and purchased services needs for various community education programming needs. The Capital Expenditure revenue budget for revenues will be increased $961,058 at mid-year, due mainly to one time increase in technology aid of $40 per Adjusted Marginal Cost Pupil Unit (AMCPU) for 2007-08. This amount will be increased to $55 per AMCPU for 2008-09, but is not projected to occur in 2009-2010 unless legislation is approved in the next biennium. The expenditure budget for Legacy is being increased by $62,500, due to actual projects being more than current budget capacity for bus loops and security cameras.
