22 Budget Appropriation
budget appropriation 23 what is a budget appropriation? An estimate of maximum expenditures of the school corporation from each fund. Authorization from the Board to spend a maximum amount from each fund for a fiscal year. A submission to the Department of Local Government Finance (DGLF). A line-item budget to allocate resources to schools and divisions. A breakdown of expenditures by use (salaries, benefits, contracted services, etc.). A guarantee of district revenues.
budget appropriation 24 key terminology Levy Property-tax proceeds Appropriation Legal spending authority Structural Deficit Amount of spending required for a level of service greater than revenues in a budget year regardless of how well the economy is performing. A deficit which continues for a longer period of time, rather than a cyclical deficit which is related to short-term factors. Circuit Breaker Unpaid property tax resulting in reduced property-tax funds received by school district. Indiana law limits the amount of property taxes paid by a taxpayer based upon the type of property and the property s fair market value. The maximum limits are commonly referred to as property-tax caps. Rainy Day Fund Board-appropriated fund which accumulates prior-year excess cash balances from other Board-appropriated funds. Board Resolution 3032-15 (July 2015) provides guidance on use of funds. The funds are available to provide relief to support funding shortfalls, in any other fund, as necessary. Fund Balance % Amount of cash in an appropriated fund as a percentage of the fund s annual expenditures. Cash divided by annual expenditures multiplied by 100%.
budget appropriation 25 SY 2018 19: proposal to maximize revenue Requested Levy (requested property-tax proceeds) Amount of cash requested from local property taxes; this amount is reduced by DLGF due to maximum levy and debt-service reserve limitations. Proposed Appropriation (spending authority/budget estimate) Current cash balance plus projected maximum annual expenditures; this is the amount needed to fund the desired activities of the school corporation. Funds Requested Levy Proposed Appropriation 1 General n/a $269,000,000 2 Debt Service $52,700,000 $36,300,000 3 Retirement/Severance Debt $4,250,000 $2,882,000 4 Referendum Debt 2008 $26,500,000 $21,063,000 5 Capital Projects $38,200,000 $51,400,000 6 Transportation $38,200,000 $40,300,000 7 Bus Replacement $12,400,000 $13,200,000 8 Total $172,250,000 $434,145,000 Note: Debt funds have levies which exceed appropriations due to minimum cash balance required by Indiana statute (IC 6-1.1-17-22).
