Non-Agency Accounts

Non-Agency accounts previously held at the schools have now transferred to Fund 23 and are held at the SAU.

¾ Access to funds is through Requisition/PO process. ¾ Athletic funds will be drawn down and left-over fundraising funds at

the end of the year will be transferred to the Fund 23 account. Future fundraising activity will be done under the premise that the accounts are “in-out”. If sports fundraisers are for large items that take multiple years to accrue funds then these shall be collected and managed by the Boosters, not the District.

¾ Future receipts for parking fees will be budgeted as revenue to the GF as “Other Local Sources” and be used to offset parking lot maintenance.
