Approval of Minutes Budget Subcommittee Minutes dated 12/3/20, approved, 2-0. 2. Old Business FY21 Budget update Ed Donoghue and Debbie Scott gave an update on the FY21 budget. Approximately $600,000 estimated in new CARES Act funding through June. COVID-related salary expenses not budgeted probably will make up the bulk of the district expenses. Revolving accounts are being drawn down, especially Roland Green revenue and Food Service. Transportation shows in the negative; funds have not been drawn from the revolving account. Having a buffer in the transportation revolving account for next year would be helpful because there will be a new transportation contract coming up. FY22 Budget update Ed will check with the town to see if there is any cost -savings potential to share security software. Estimates for COVID-related staffing, supplies, services are still very fluid and developing; administrators are assessing needs, and these initial figures will change. Student activity accounts Debbie will check the status of All Night Party 2020 account update to determine if balance can be redistributed by the School Committee at its next meeting.
