Auburn School Board Approves Budget Amendments
02/20/2017

(KLZA)-- The Auburn Board of Education last week voted to approve amendments to three lines in the 2016-17 budget.

The Board approved refinancing bonds used for the Middle School and Calvert Elementary School projects. The bonds will be paid off a year earlier and save the district approximately $450,000. 

The second budget amendment will be to the building fund.  The Auburn School District is anticipating receiving federal funds to help with infrastructure improvements, with an emphasis on wired Internet.
The project comes with a price tag of approximately $100,000 with the government reimbursement amounting to 70 percent of the costs. 
 
The other budget amendment will allow improvements at Tushla Field to be run through the school’s activity budget. 

The City of Auburn and other various donors are donating money to replace the baseball scoreboard and lights at Tushla Field.  The cost is estimated at $250,000.
