Amendment #12 - Fiscal Year
2016-2017
Public Content
On September 12, 2016, the School Board adopted the budget for fiscal year 2016-2017. As the fiscal
year progresses, we ask the School Board to amend the budget to more accurately reflect estimated
revenues and appropriations. The amendments are results of various factors including: increases or
decreases in estimated revenues to more accurately reflect revenues, and increases or decreases in
appropriations to more accurately reflect estimated expenditures and/or better utilize funds for
schools, departments, and projects. These amendments facilitate district operations to occur in a
positive manner.
These amendments properly reflect the estimated revenue and appropriations. The amendments show
the estimated revenue and appropriations for each fund and provide a description of the amendments.
Required by S.B.E. rule 6A-1.006.
The attached budget amendment reflects a change in appropriations only.
