Board of Ed. Needs Council Approval to Spend Nonlocal Funds Received. On Eve of Primary Election, BOE Poised to Spend $500K without Council Appropriation

(c)  Expenditure of nonlocal funds received after adoption of budget. --  Except as provided in subsection (d) of this section, nonlocal funds received by a county board after the adoption of the annual budget by the county fiscal authority may be spent by the county board if the county fiscal authority is notified and approves of:
(1)  The source and amount of the funds; and

(2)  The manner of spending the funds.

******************

However, the Board of Education has been quietly holding back revenue received from cell tower leases, field trip fees among other unknown sources of revenue and is now going to use those funds to pay for a new artificial turf football field at Richard Montgomery High School without bringing those funds to the County Council for appropriation. 

**BOE Finds $562,721 for Plastic Grass at RM High School.** Not Money for Teachers, Classrooms, Lead Remediation, Mold Remediation, Repairs, Grass Seed... BOE Intentionally Let Warranty EXPIRE! Did Council Appropriate these Funds for this Purpose?: Parents' Coalition of Montgomery County, Maryland
