Regents to decide on budget reset after state funding cuts - Tim Johnson, Daily Nonpariel

The board’s April meeting is typically the only one each year held at ISD.Members are expected to approve a plan as part of their consent agenda for sharing the pain of the mid-year funding cuts imposed by the Iowa Legislature after tax revenues fell short of expectations. The Legislature reduced fiscal year 2018 Regent appropriations by a total of $10,933,070. Legislators exempted the University of Northern Iowa, Iowa School for the Deaf and the Iowa Braille and Sight-Saving School from the budget reductions. http://www.nonpareilonline.com/news/education/regents-to-decide-on-budget-reset-after-state-funding-cuts/article_bcefcf88-3c52-11e8-a4d4-cf4e016f03c9.html
