The School District of Mystery Lake board will be holding their annual budget consultation meeting tonight.

Here, school board chair Don McDonald explains that the meeting is a chance to see where the money comes from, where it’s delegated to, and what the implications are for tax payers in the city.

“This is a meeting we hold every year. It’s a period in the budget process where administration has prepared a budget, the board has reviewed it, but the budget has not been formally considered by the board or passed.  It’s an opportunity for the public to see where we stand financially,  what we’re proposing to do next year, what it’s going to cost, where the money goes.

And it’s also a chance for the public to have input into the process and comment on what’s being proposed.”

The meeting will be held tonight at 7 at the School Board Office, which is beside Giant Tiger.
