Students only got out of school last week, but preparation is already under way for the 2013-14 Benicia Unified School District budget, which will be the focus Thursday of a special Board of Trustees meeting.
Affecting the outlook this year, as it does every year, is uncertainty at the state level, as well as falling district enrollment.
Among the many factors affecting the district’s budget this year is about $5 million in Education Protection Account funds, new revenues generated from the passage last November of Proposition 30, Chief Business Official Tim Rahill wrote in a report to the board.
