From the transcript

So if you're looking at this memo that I wrote, we subtract out the revenue— subtract expenditures from the revenues generated. It generated a loss of $21 million. We applied fund balance. So in fiscal year '27, if we capped at 7 mils there would be a $22,032,955 expected reduction that would have to happen through expenditures to balance the budget. That's the equivalent currently at the current 1 mil rate of 1.35 mils.
