Budget Anthony Cozzi, Director of Finance and Facilities, presented revisions from the budget draft presented at the August 19 Board meeting. There was discussion about transportation services for students with special needs. The prior year budget expenditures across all funds were $24,361,700, which included $2,400,000 in the Capital Projects Fund for the majority of the Roosevelt renovation project that occurred in the summer of 2012. The 2013-2014 budgeted expenditures across all funds were $22,003,800. This represented (excluding the prior year's Capital Projects Fund) a $42,100 or .2 percent increase from 2012-2013. The final budget was approved as presented. The complete budget is available on the Finance page of the District 90 website.
