GAPS PERS Rate Increases 7/1/11 rate increase added approximately $3 million in costs. 7/1/13 projected rate increase will add an additional $1.1 million.

Looking Ahead to 2013-15 • General Fund Revenues Are Expected to Increase • Not Estimated To Be Sufficient • Need >$8 million Now to Restore 08/09 Service Levels • Costs Will Again Go Up • Another PERS Rate Increase (min. 3 % points) • Textbook Adoption (assumed in model) • Assumed Increase In Labor Costs • Assumed 3% Annual Increase in Employee Costs • Assumed 5% Annual Increase in Insurance Costs
What Lies Ahead • The Economy Is Improving • However, Oregon Needs To See Significant Job Growth • District Continues To Face Uncertain Future • Anticipated Expenditures Outpace Revenue • District Must: • Manage Costs • Maintain A Quality Program (including quality staff) • Call On The Legislature For Adequate Funding • Attract & Retain More Students! • Collaborative Relationship
