Munday CISD board to set 2026-27 budget and tax rate at special meeting
The Munday CISD board has not yet published minutes from its Aug. 10 meetings, so no decisions from those sessions are available. The board is scheduled to meet today, Aug. 24, for a special meeting to set the district's 2026-27 budget and tax rate.
Recent meetings (Aug. 10)
The board held three meetings on Aug. 10: a regular meeting, a safety and security committee meeting, and a budget workshop. All were agenda-only, with minutes not yet published.
Regular Meeting
The agenda included a vote on a maintenance tax note, approval of the 2026-27 student and staff handbooks, and closing out Fund 699 and transferring funds to Fund 199. The board also had a safety and security action item and received administrative reports from principals and the superintendent. No vote tallies or dollar amounts are available.
Safety and Security Committee
The committee reviewed end-of-year safety and security matters, discussed the Safe Cycle 2 Grant, and considered updates to safety and security procedures. The agenda listed the first two items as non-action items and the third as an action item. No specific amounts or project names were provided.
Budget Workshop
The board held a budget workshop as an action item, with a call to order, a public forum for comments, and adjournment. No budget figures were released.
Upcoming special meeting (Aug. 24)
The board will meet today to consider the 2026-27 district budget and tax rate. The agenda includes a possible debt service tax rate above the minimum, as allowed under Section 26.05(a-1) of the Texas Tax Code. The board will also consider:
- Final payment for a roof replacement.
- Budget amendments.
- Approval of innovative CTE classes.
- Salary adjustments.
Routine items include approval of minutes, financial reports, and administrative updates.
The budget and tax rate are the most consequential items, as they determine the district's revenue and spending for the coming fiscal year. The possible debt service tax rate above the minimum could affect the property tax rate, though no specific rate has been published.
