Board redirects leftover referendum money after land search

What happened

On April 27 the board approved spending the remaining capital referendum funds on projects that fit the scope of the original referendum question. The annual meeting presentation says the district moved away from a land search to a plan to recode earlier spending and fund summer projects from its capital improvement plan.

Why it matters to families

Money voters approved for building needs is being used on existing buildings instead of land for a new site. Families may see summer projects at district buildings.

The evidence

April 27 minutes record the motion to approve spending the remaining capital referendum funds. The August 31 presentation lists the tiers: recode previously spent general fund money, summer projects, then next steps in 2026-27. It does not give the total remaining.
