At the August Clinton Board of Education meeting, the Clinton Board received good news on this year's budget.

Assistant Superintendent Drew Goebel presented to the Board a budget that resembles last year's budget closely. He points out, they project a deficit for the education fund and transfer money to there, what's called 'working cash fund'. He says they're in good shape.

According to Goebel, they are spending quite a bit on some bigger projects which should be covered by reserves.

Goebel compared their funds from last year to this year. He points says overall things are looking very good.

A surprising boost in the Corporate Personal Property Replacement Tax, or CPPRT was a big boost to a positive report for this year's budget.
