Public Hearing of the 2004/05 Budget: Mr. Lenar presented and reviewed the proposed 2004/05 budget. 

Mr. Lenar confirmed Mr. Loop’s inquiry about the district’s savings due to retirements.

Mr. Kowalski asked about the computer budget.  He stated his concern for taking general fund money to replace the computers that were purchased in 1996 with millage money.  He felt that the equipment should be replaced in the same manner.  He did not feel it was wise to take general fund money to do this.  Mr. Lenar explained that the district is using more money right now to fix the old equipment.  Mr. Kowalski felt that the financial issue should have been brought up before replacement of the equipment.

At 7:42 p.m. a motion was made by Dawn Klida, supported by Terrence O’Hare, to adjourn the meeting.

Respectfully submitted,

Dawn Klida

Secretary
