READING PUBLIC SCHOOLS <br />Reading, Massachusetts <br />SCHOOL COMMITTEE MEETING <br />REGULAR SESSION JUNE 7 1995 <br />CALL TO ORDER <br />Chair Timothy Twomey called the regular school committee meeting to order at 6:11 p.m. in the <br />Reading Selectmen's Conference Room at Town Hall. All members were present with the ex- <br />ception of Roberta D'Antona who was expected to arrive later. Also present was the interim <br />Superintendent Dennis Richards. <br />OLD BUSINESS <br />FY95 BUDGET <br />BASIS FOR FISCAL 1995 SCHOOL BUDGET SHORTFALL <br />interim Superintendent Richards reviewed suggested changes that indicate how the bottom line <br />budget as adopted in April, 1994 and amended in November, 1994, could not support the pattern <br />of expenditures entered into in September, 1995. The bottom line over expenditure is approxi- <br />mately $250,000. <br />Examples of expenditures exceeding budget allocations are as follows: <br />Special Education ($197,000), Building Maintenance ($42,000), Administration ($25,000), and <br />Salaries (Approximately $105,000) <br />The total of major items is $369,000 with Offsets of Savings & Unallocated Funds of $119.00 <br />leaves the total shortfall $250,000. <br />Mr. Richards explained some of the Proposed Plan to Address the Problem. <br />. No staff which have not been included in the budget are to be employed without the expressed <br />consent of School Committee. Exceptions are those needed to carry out emergency Individual <br />Educational Plans (IEP's). <br />. Shortfalls will require the Superintendent to place items from a prioritized list on hold, pending <br />School Committee decisions on a course of action. <br />. Direct communication between the Finance & Accounting Departments, and the Schools, the <br />Administration, and the School Committee will be encouraged. <br />
