Is there any way capital funds can support the operations budget?
Yes. The district is choosing efficient and sustainable building practices, such as natural day-lighting, efficient HVAC systems, durable construction materials, and low-maintenance finishes to reduce utility bills and maintenance costs in the new buildings. Since utilities and routine maintenance are paid through the general (day-to-day operating) fund, capital investments which reduce these costs will ultimately support the operations budget.
