▶ 15:43 Margaret Raymond Driscoll: Thank you so much, Chair Kelley. First on our agenda this evening is the monthly budget summary and revolving accounts. Uh, and through the superintendent, if I may turn it over to Mr. Kelley, please.

▶ 15:55 Speaker 4: Sure. Thank you. Good evening. Thanks for having me. So yeah, you have two reports tonight. You have the year-to-date budget for closing out on June five, um, and then our offset projections. So, we're getting close to the end of the year. The supplemental budget's been incorporated, so we're in the process now of doing our June payrolls, and if you're not aware, um, the Unit A has balloon payments that happen in June. So we've processed about six payrolls in the span of about 10 days. I'd like to thank the business office, Claudine Sweeney, Kim Candelari, and Peggy Sorrentino for working on that. Bonnie Tanner works daily now on closing out our purchase orders to make sure we're closing FY26 in the right fiscal year. So, busy times but, um, I'd be happy to answer any questions you have on either report in the packet.

▶ 16:47 Margaret Raymond Driscoll: Why don't we begin with the monthly budget summary? Any questions for Mr. Kelley?

▶ 16:56 Speaker 3: Seeing none. On our revolving accounts.

▶ 17:02 Speaker 3: Questions for Mr. Kelley or the superintendent?

▶ 17:07 Speaker 3: Seeing none, may I have a motion to approve?
