FY2022 SEEDA allocation increased by $26K

 

SHERIDAN — Sheridan City Council voted unanimously yesterday to allocate an additional $26,000 to the Sheridan Educational and Economic Development Authority in Fiscal Year 2022, in order to better match contributions being made by Sheridan College.

The city, which had allocated $100,000 to the organization in its preliminary budget, will now allocate $126,000 to the joint powers board.

According to state statute regarding joint powers boards, members of the joint powers board are expected to split costs evenly, according to Kerns.
