• Mr. Baltzersen provided a summary of the intermediate unit’s five largest budgets which make
up $51 million of the approximate $86 million that the intermediate unit manages. These
budgets fund the most challenging and costly students in all of the districts.
• The Special Education budget represents the largest of the budgets.
• There were some reductions in revenue in the PHP budget primarily due to low enrollment.
• Conversation ensued regarding PSERS and GASB.
• Mrs. Lutfy shared that she attended an IEP meeting at an East Stroudsburg PHP site (she
didn’t identify herself) and was super impressed with the IU20 teacher. The focus was on
getting the student back to the home district, which he/she did return into an inclusion
classroom.
• Resolve ES – there were some classes closed at the elementary level. PHP and ES are the
two programs that are being closely monitored month to month. CCBH has not been
approving services and Dr. Cunningham noted that there has been an increase of children in
crisis. She has met with CCBH regarding the denial of services.
• Easton SD has asked the intermediate unit to take over the Northampton County Prison,
therefore you will notice a new budget (5.13.m)
