3000-1000 Admin: Build and Maintain Quality Infrastructure
 Step 1: Support maintenance needs of admin account
Value: $304,859
 This figure is based on the cost of negotiated step increases, the value of
collective bargaining agreement raises, the cost of lease increases in the Boston
and Springfield offices, an increase in the cost of postage, and other minor costs.
•Payroll Related: $288,606
 $226K to annualize FY11 Collective Bargaining ($167K), the value of FY11 step
increases ($45K) and annualization of Licensor position ($14K).
 $81,783K to fund FY12 Step increases ($41K) and FY12 CBA increases ($40K).
 ($24K) decrease because amount found in other accounts to support payroll.
Other Expenses: $5,000
• Lease Spaces: $38,449:
 The leases for the Boston and Quincy offices expire in FY12 (Boston on August
13th and Quincy on December 31st) and must be renewed. Also, the Lawrence
lease will increase by $4K in FY12.
•Miscellaneous: ($22,700)
 $27K for postage, paper, equipment leases and other admin expenses; and
($50K): Market Rate analysis must be done biannually per CCDF regulations. It
will be done in FY11, and is therefore not budgeted in FY12.
There will be staff reductions in FY12 unless funds are restored to the admin
account.

FY12 Proposed Budget
Child Care Accounts

3000-3050: Supportive
 Value: $7,054,005
 Anticipated historical spending growth of 8.234% each year

3000-4050: DTA Related
 Value: $8,885,936
 Anticipated FY11 expenditures plus 3% growth

3000-4060: Income Eligible
 Value: $1,401,649
 Anticipated expenditure level on 6/30/11
Maintains existing levels of access (about 55,000 children statewide) in total
caseload.
Note that spending in the Supportive and DTA related accounts reflects
legislative language that there cannot be a wait list.
6
FY12 Proposed Budget
Non-Admin
 3000-2000: Access Management
 Value: $150,000
 Annualized cost to maintain COTS Waitlist system.

3000-6000: Support QRIS Activities
 Value: $4.0M
 QRIS raises the standard of care and must therefore be supported with its own
annual appropriation.

3000-6000: Increase Funding for Professional Development
 Value: $500,000
 The FY11 statewide implementation of a professional development network once
implemented is expected to have a demand which exceeds current funding.

3000-6075: Return Mental Health to FY10 Funding Level
 Value: $250,000 (Increases appropriation to $1M)
 Reduction in funding cut services and emphasis on supporting crisis assistance for
children in need of services. More children with mental health issues are being served
in child care.

FY12 Potential Impacts
The Good and the Bad
8

The Good: Potential increase in CCDF funding. The FFY2011 federal CCDF
grant award may increase by $9M in discretionary and $15M in Matching
funding. This increase, particularly in the discretionary award (since it does
not need to be matched), could create an opportunity for additional funding
from the Legislature in FY12.

The Bad: “Based on modeling done by A&F, it is clear that we will again
have a gap between projected revenues and spending and therefore will not
be able to afford maintenance levels of funding in FY12 and FY13.” This
quote is from ANF and is the reality of the times we are navigating. FY12
spending caps will reflect this reality for most agencies. Governor Patrick
and his administration have been extremely generous with the education
budgets, but even this generosity is bound by the economic climate.
