All COVID grants will be spent by 6/30, with exception of CARES. Chromebook and laptop orders have been placed and will be reflected in June financials. DSCR is in compliance. |

Finance Committee is recommending that the Board of Trustees approve a transfer of FY21 surplus funds to a Capital Reserve Account for both campuses to be used for future capital projects (restoration & renewal, capital improvements). The recommended amount is a transfer of up to $400k and will be determined at year end once the DSCR is finalized.
