Public facility applications and district budget details
Applications for 1990 scheduling of Veterans halls and community buildings will be taken on a first come first served basis with times listed for Wasco and Shafter buildings. The district budget totals include 1.2 million in classified salaries and 1.7 million in employee benefits, with specifics for health insurance, retirement system payments, supplies, services, and capital outlay. Bury notes the budget is adequate to run the district but cannot cover new building needs, citing a shortfall of about 1.5 million to qualify for matching funds and the potential need for certificates of participation or a bond election to raise funds. bond approvals may shift to a simple majority if proposed changes pass.
