CHANGES TO THE BUDGET
VPSA Bond 2004B series refund in the amount of $83,392.51 is slated for use in the capital improvement projects at the elementary school and high school portico or vestibule projects.
These monies came to the county in January shortly after the School Board’s payment in December towards our debt service. The bonds were refinanced and therefore increased funding to schools.
We thank the Board of Supervisors for their patience as we have worked diligently with a local architect to draw up plans for this project. This project is currently in the bid process.
