North Beach Elementary would get about $272,000 in leftover school bond money
The Miami-Dade School Board votes Nov. 18 on shifting $47.3 million in unspent bond funds; Miami Beach Senior High would give back $13,000.
North Beach Elementary, 4100 Prairie Ave., would receive about $271,700 in school bond money under an item on the Miami-Dade School Board’s Nov. 18 agenda.
The item moves $47.3 million left over from finished or closed projects under the district’s General Obligation Bond into a contingency account, then hands it out to schools across the county. North Beach Elementary’s share comes in three lines totaling $271,739, all listed under the purpose “Expedite the use of GOB funds.” The item does not say what work the money would pay for.
Miami Beach Senior High is among the schools giving money back: about $13,000 in unspent balances would move out of its account. Miami Beach Fienberg/Fisher K-8 would return less than $22.
According to the item, the district reviews bond projects as they close out and pools any leftover money for other eligible capital projects. The district’s bond advisory committee will be told of the board’s decision at its next meeting.
The School Board takes up the item at its Wednesday, Nov. 18, meeting; agendas and item files are posted on the district’s board meeting pages.
