SENATE RESOLUTION NO. 238

WHEREAS, The Senate of the State of Texas is pleased to recognize the Clear Creek Independent School District, which was selected for a Distinguished Budget Presentation Award by the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada; and

WHEREAS, The district earned this award for its 2005 budget; to earn this prestigious honor, a budget must meet nationally recognized guidelines for effective presentation; the effectiveness is assessed by how well the budget serves as a policy document, a financial plan, an operations guide, and a communication device; and

WHEREAS, Chief Financial Officer Paul McLarty and his dedicated staff worked long hours to prepare this document, and the members of the district's board of trustees deserve recognition for earning this award; now, therefore, be it

RESOLVED, That the Senate of the State of Texas, 80th Legislature, hereby commend the Clear Creek Independent School District on its first-rate 2005 budget presentation and extend congratulations on receiving the Distinguished Budget Presentation Award from the Government Finance Officers Association of the United States and Canada; and, be it further

RESOLVED, That a copy of this Resolution be prepared for the district as an expression of esteem from the Texas Senate. Jackson
