Impact of Governor’s Proposal on MDUSD Budget Presented byGary McHenry, SuperintendentMarch 2008
Mid-Year Actions Under Proposition 58 • The Governor has declared a “fiscal emergency” under Proposition 58, triggering the following: • The Legislature is now called into Special Session to deal with the Budget crisis • The Governor must submit a plan to address the Budget imbalance • The Legislature must adopt a plan to address the problem by March 15 (that is, within 45 days of the declaration) otherwise it may not act on any other legislation and it may not adjourn • The plan must be adopted by a two-thirds vote of the Legislature, allowing the savings to take effect immediately Source: SSC, January 2008
State Budget Summary • Compared with full funding for COLA and growth for programs in 2008-09, the Governor’s proposal cuts K-12 education by $4.4 billion • These cuts average about $740 per ADA from 2008-09 full funding levels Saying it another way . . . Governor’s proposal is for 2008-09 funding to be about $1.8 billion less than current year, equal to average cuts of: • $129 per ADA from Revenue Limits • $30 per ADA from Special Education • $146 per ADA from Categoricals Total loss of about $305 per ADA from current year levels!

Criteria for Budget Reductions I recommend the following priority order: • Insure campuses are safe for students and staff • Honor collective bargaining contracts and comply with local, state and federal mandates • Maintain programs for students • Analyze program effectiveness • Eliminate programs that are ineffective • Maintain programs that are effective • Protect as many positions as possible • Honor our commitments and our promises to the publice.g. Measure A and Measure C, Kindergarten Class Size Reduction • Affect expenditure reductions across all programs • Health and Safety – supervision of students • Cleanliness • Shift expenditures to grants and other funding source where possible
Steps: Balancing the Budget • Determine the amount to be reduced • Apply the methodology • Comply with budget reduction criteria
Methodology • Amount to be reducedCost of 1% for all units • Cost of 1% x Reduction Factor = Amount to be reduced/unit • Cost per UnitAverage cost per position = Reduction Factor = # of Positions to be Reduced
MethodologyExample: Impact of $14 Million on MDEA unit • Amount to be reducedCost of 1% for all units • Cost of 1% for unit x Reduction Factor = Amount to be reduced/unit • Cost per UnitAverage cost per position $14,000,000$ 2,199,189 = 6.4 = Reduction Factor $1,311,912 x 6.4 = $8,396,236 = # of Positions to be Reduced $8,396,236$55,290 = 152 positions
