CCSD Budget & Millage Rate Hearing 3 - 06/10/2026

The Clark County School District (CCSD) held a Budget and Millage Rate Hearing on June 10, 2026, to discuss and prepare for the approval of the FY27 budget and millage rate. Key procurement-related discussions focused on salary and benefits initiatives aimed at recruitment and retention of teachers, including extending salary tables and providing supplements for special education teachers. The budget also included increased funding for transportation and restorative practices, as well as a transfer of funds to the local capital projects fund to support preliminary work on projects such as West Broad, with further expenditures anticipated from the upcoming SPLOST 7 vote. The total expenditures were projected at $263 million, a 3.15% increase over the previous year, with a projected fund balance of $52.6 million, about 20% of expenditures, below the new 25% reserve threshold set by Senate Bill 33. The millage rate was maintained at 18.8 mills, consistent for the fifth consecutive year, despite a 4.25% property reassessment increase. The board discussed the impact of Senate Bill 33 on future budgets and the importance of maintaining reserves to address unfunded state mandates and rising costs. No motions or votes were recorded during this hearing, which served as a final review before the formal budget and millage rate approval vote scheduled for the following day.
