Ann Arbor Public Schools welcomes the community to comment on their budget Wednesday night.
    

The board will get the first briefing on the $182 million general fund budget.  It addresses a projected shortfall of nearly $11.5 million .  

Over half of that amount is reached by a compensation freeze and savings from replacing retiring teachers with new hires.  The board will also vote on outsourcing custodial work.  That move will save an additional $1.8 million.

The budget proposal can be found here.

Like many, I first came to this area when I started school at the University of Michigan, then fell in love with the community and haven’t left. After graduating from U of M in the mid 1990’s I interned at WDET for several years, while also working a variety of jobs in Ann Arbor. Then in 1999 I joined the WEMU news team.
