Board asked to shift bathroom costs to the capital referendum budget and explore buying land

What happened

At the October meeting the board was asked to move bathroom project costs from the operating referendum to the capital referendum to leave more room in the operating budget. The board also discussed possibly buying land across from the new CTE addition for a greenhouse.

Why it matters to families

Moving costs between referendum budgets changes how much operating money is left, and a land purchase would add a new project.

The evidence

The October 2026 recording has the superintendent and finance staff describing the agenda item and noting the budget includes room for the property if it becomes available. The vote result is not stated in the captions reviewed.
