2. Riverside Community College DistrictFY 2011-2012 Final Budget • The District prepared a 2011-2012 budget projection following release of the Governor’s initial budget proposal in January 2011. • That projection reflected a budget problem, composed of both reduced revenues and increased costs, in the amount of $18.4 million. • A plan for addressing this problem was then developed and discussed in a variety of forums, including a presentation to the Board of Trustees in February 2011.

5. Riverside Community College DistrictFY 2011-2012 Final Budget Although there are some differences in the detail, our early analysis of the 2011-2012 State budget situation was on target. Thus, the proposed 2011-2012 RCCD budget is based on the plan we developed several months ago. The plan for addressing the FY 2011-2012 budget shortfall included a loan of $1.12 million from Resource 4130 (La Sierra Capital). Since the contingency/reserve balance is projected to be above the 3% level, the additional loan was not included in this budget proposal. FY 2011-2012 Reserve Requirement 3% $ 4.47 Contingency/Reserve Balance 5.84 Amount Above 3%$ 1.37

6. Riverside Community College DistrictFY 2011-2012 Final Budget Risks The District faces the very real possibility of mid-year general apportionment reductions if State revenue projections are not realized. The reductions will be “triggered” in two phases referred to as Tier 1 and Tier 2. In addition, it is likely that the State has overestimated the amount of student enrollment fees by a approximately $25 million. Mid-Year Reduction ScenarioDistrict Tier 1 ($30 Million Systemwide) $ 0.73 Tier 2 ($72 Million Systemwide)1.75 Enrollment Fee Shortfall ($25 million Systemwide) 0.61 Total$ 3.09 Possible Solutions to Mid-Year Reductions in FY 2011-2012 December 31, 2011 Retirees Estimated Golden Handshake Savings $ 1.00 Contingency/Reserve Amount Above 3% 1.37 Total $ 2.37

7. Riverside Community College DistrictFY 2011-2012 Final Budget Enrollment For fiscal ’12, the District will face a 6.21% workload reduction directed by the State, which equates to 1,666 credit FTES. Significant enrollment risk exists within the State adopted budget. If certain revenue projections fail to materialize, the two mid-year revenue reductions mentioned previously could be triggered, resulting in additional workload reductions. Tier 1 could result in a workload reduction of 160 credit FTES. Tier 2 could result in an additional workload reduction of 383 credit FTES.

9. Riverside Community College DistrictFY 2011-2012 Final Budget Looking Ahead – FY 2012-2013 The prospects for the FY 2012-2013 budget picture are not good. It is likely the State’s budget situation will deteriorate. Our budgetary problems are three fold: • Decreasing budgets from the State. • Built-in cost escalation in our expenditure budgets. • A budgetary imbalance whereby ongoing budget issues are being addressed by one-time budget solutions. A “Solutions Sustainability Analysis” was prepared several months ago to assist the District in assessing this situation (see the following page). • $8.30 million of our $18.41 million budget problem for FY 2011-2012 was solved via the use of one-time funding. • Interfund borrowing was used to solve one-time budget problems for fiscal ’12 and fiscal ‘11. The combination of one-time solutions, interfund loan repayments, annual State budget cutting and cost escalation factors (e.g. new space to maintain, contractual agreements, etcetera), have created an overall budget problem for RCCD that requires that we focus our attention beyond the annual budget.
