Encinitas Union School District 2010-11 Proposed Budget
Governor’s Budget 2010-11 1 • The May Revision is, by statute, the Governor’s last chance to provide his Budget proposals to the Legislature • It may differ from January only slightly, or be dramatically different • Overall, the State Budget situation has gotten worse • Federal dollars, upon which the January Budget depended, have been slow in coming • Inaction by the Legislature has caused planned savings to slip away • Costs of some programs have risen more than anticipated • Revenues are still falling below the state’s already low forecasts • Education was protected somewhat, relative to other programs, in January • In May, education continues to be better protected than other programs • It was anticipated that the best we could hope for was no new cuts, and that is, for the most part, what it’s been proposed
Governor’s Budget 2010-11 2 • Education fares better than the rest of the Budget • The rest of the Budget is absorbing even heavier cuts in order to protect education from deeper cuts • But there is no “free ride” – the nearly $1.5 billion taken from education in January remains unrestored • Child care takes a huge cut • Social and health programs that serve K-12 students and their families are hit even harder • California Work Opportunities and Responsibility to Kids (CalWORKs), which is California’s main avenue to welfare payments, is on the chopping block • The Budget reflects two major unresolved problems: • California’s finance system serves the state poorly in both good and bad times • The current economic woes remain unresolved
Governor’s Budget 2010-11 3 • Proposition 98 continues to provide little short-term protection • The Proposition 98 guarantee continues to fall and is therefore technically “overfunded” • Education funding, at this point, is totally at the discretion of the state • In the longer term, Proposition 98 benefits education • Restoration of the base is required • During the good years ahead, Proposition 98 will drive higher levels of • funding • But until then, California faces a continuation of difficult budget years
2010-11 Governor’s Proposal – May Revise 4 • For the most part, the May Revision contains no further cuts to K-12 education • Cuts proposed in January remain • Targeted proposed administrative cut is eliminated • Cuts to child care eliminate subsidized slots for 142,000 children • No new federal dollars • No new taxes are proposed • Major additional cuts to the noneducation portions of the Budget are proposed • The Legislature is expected to have great difficulty voting for the choices before them
Major May Revision Proposals 5 • The revised Budget gap is projected to be $19.1 billion, slightly smaller than the $19.9 billion gap in the January Budget • The Governor proposes to close this gap without raising taxes • $12.4 billion in cuts • $3.4 billion in additional federal funds • $3.4 billion in borrowing fund shifts, asset sales, and surcharges • A few programs are proposed for increases from the January Governor’s Budget: • Restores $140 million for state parks • Restores $46 million for Cal Grants • Withdraws proposal to cut $112 million for University of California (UC) and California State University (CSU) enrollment growth
Major May Revision Proposals 6 • Program cuts make up the majority of the Governor’s May Revision proposals, including: • $1.1 billion in savings from the elimination of CalWORKs, the state’s • welfare program for the poor • $637 million in savings from cuts to the In-Home Support Services program for the disabled • $750 million in savings from Medi-Cal, the state’s primary health care program for low-income residents • $244 million in savings from transferring state prisoners to county jails • $602 million in savings from reduced county mental health services
Potential Issues to the May Revised Budget Proposal 7 • In January, there were several major risks to the Governor’s Budget proposals: • Federal funds – no guarantee that $6.9 billion could be secured • Voter approval – required for fund shifts • Economy and revenues – the economy and revenues could underperform forecasts • Some of these risks have in fact materialized: • Only $3.4 billion in federal funds are expected to be received • Fund shifts requiring voter approval will not be placed on the ballot • Current-year revenues have fallen short by $1.6 billion
Potential Issues to the May Revised Budget Proposal 8 • The May Revision, if enacted as proposed, contains other – but equally significant – risks • Court challenges – rebenching Proposition 98, elimination of CalWORKs, state worker pay cuts, health care reductions, and other cuts could face court challenges • Late Budget – a late Budget would delay implementation of program reductions, resulting in the loss of budgeted savings • Economic and revenue risks – the state and national economies face the possibility of a “double dip” recession, especially in light of the turmoil in overseas economies • These risks in turn could threaten California’s access to the capital markets, pushing borrowing costs even higher
Revenue Limit Funding 9 • Base revenue limit (BRL) funding under the May Revision would receive the following adjustments: • Funding for growth and a “fully funded” statutory cost-of-living adjustment (COLA) of -0.39%, essentially unchanged from the -0.38% estimate in January • No change in the deficit factor from the Governor’s January Budget Proposal • 18.355% for K-12 school districts • To implement the $1.5 billion cut to revenue limits, the DOF, was considering a 3.85% reduction to each district’s undeficited revenue limit
Special Education 11 • The May Revision provides a fully funded negative COLA of -0.38% for special education (AB 602) on the state share of funding • Growth is funded at $3.6 million, or $463.67 per ADA • There are several proposed adjustments for 2010-11, including: • $1.1 million decrease in ongoing federal aid (technical adjustment) • $634 million decrease in one-time American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) funding • $65 million remains in the May Revision for the Behavior Intervention Plans on the mandate settlement • Will add approximately $10.92 per ADA to AB 602 base • However, legislative action is required before funding will occur
Flexibility Opportunities Continue 12 • The flexibility options introduced in 2008-09 continue without changes • 42 Tier III flexible categorical programs • Including suspension of deferred maintenance match requirements and instructional materials adoption timelines • Relaxation of K-3 Class-Size Reduction (CSR) funding penalties • Lowering of reserve for economic uncertainty requirements • Shorter school year • The May Revision proposes no changes to existing flexibility – nor does it offer answers to questions about the future of flexibility • Tier III flexibility continues through 2012-13 • K-3 CSR funding penalties remain relaxed through 2011-12
Recap of Flexibility Plus Updates – Tier III Categorical Programs 13 • Funding for 42 programs are permitted to be shifted to any other education purpose as of 2008-09 through 2012-13 • In addition, SBX3 4 stated that a public hearing is required as a condition of exercising the allowed flexibility.
