2020-21 PHSD Budget Committee Candidate - Open until filled.

There are two vacant seats on the 2020-21 Budget Committee.

The Pleasant Hill School District Budget Committee is a ten-member financial advisory committee consisting of five elected School Board members and an equal number of qualified district voters appointed by the Board for staggered three-year terms. The primary purpose of the Budget Committee is to bring public participation into the budget development process. Their responsibilities are governed by Local Budget Law, in Oregon Revised Statutes (ORS) Chapter 294.

An orientation for the 2020-21 budget process will be held at the May 3, 2021, Board meeting. The Budget Committee will then meet at least two times: On Monday, May 17, 2021, they are scheduled to elect officers, receive the Superintendent's Budget Message, review the Proposed Budget and hear public comment. On Monday, June 7, 2021 they are scheduled to approve the budget and tax rates and to set the date for the public hearing by the Board. Monday, June 14, 2021 has been reserved in case a third meeting is needed. Once the budget is approved, the Budget Committee's responsibilities are concluded. The budget then goes to the Board for additional public comment, discussion, possible revision and adoption.
