Current District Reserve Funds
How Reserve Funds are used in the Budget
Transportation District has many busses and vans over 7 years old and with high mileage over 150,000 miles. We have developed a new multi-year replacement schedule to address this. We will be recommending replacing a number of busses and vans in 2017-18. This would require a 2nd Proposition for the 2017-18 Budget vote.
Next Steps Further Board discussion and direction Work with district administrative team Work with Board budget committee April 19, 2017 – budget adoption
