Plan would spend 80% of new override money on pay

What happened

The September 23, 2026 agenda proposed that 80% of the mill levy override revenue go to employee compensation and 20% to instruction and student support, following talks with the Eagle County Education Association. It was set for a board vote that evening.

Why it matters to families

Most of the new money would go to staff pay, so classroom additions would draw on the smaller 20% share. The final vote is not in the collected record.

The evidence

September 23 agenda items 2.1 (work session) and 9.1 (action item) on the proposed allocation framework.
