2009-10 BUDGET DEVELOPMENT GUIDELINES
We will prepare three (3) proposed budgets
which reflect reductions of
3%, 5% and 7% from our total campus
General Fund apportionment.
These proposed reductions will result in
an estimated funding loss of approximately
$700,000 to $1.8 million from our
2010 Adoption Budget, which was approximately
$26.1 million in 2008-09.
