FY 2009 Spending Plan
BUDGET DEVELOPMENT FOR FY2009 December 2007 – January 2008 • FY2008 mid-year review • Established 08-09 AY financial aid budget • Established guidelines for divisional budgets
February 2008 – April 2008 • Received preliminary FY2009 Spending Plan guidelines from CSU System Office • Estimated State Appropriation • Final enrollment numbers for state supported funding • Office of Policy & Management (OPM) Inflation factors
THE ORIGINAL BASE BUDGET FOR FY 2009 IDENTIFIED A SHORTFALL OF $4.8 MILLION ($ WE NEED VS $ WE RECEIVE) WHY? Original enrollment targets for FY 2008 were not achieved + Other CSUS Universities exceeded their enrollment goals = Reduced share of State Appropriation from fundable enrollment
OTHER FACTORS THAT CONTRIBUTED TO SHORTFALL: • Revised CSUS distribution ($500,000 lost revenue) • The original budget assumed no vacant positions Therefore…
Reexamined FY 2009 enrollment targets with the Enrollment Management Council • FT undergraduate > +1.0% • FT graduate > flat Resulted in $500,000 increased revenue • Staggered hiring; kept some staff positions vacant resulting in $1.7 million • Reduced operating expenditures by $1.4 million • Utilize $1.2 million from Unrestricted Reserve Balance NOTE: Reserves continue to be in compliance with BOT policy.
ESTIMATED CURRENT UNRESTRICTED RESERVES Debt Service $8,600,544 Required per BOT Policy 9,303,668 Designated Reserves 4,373,251 TOTAL $22,277,463
May 2008 – July 2008 • Balanced FY09 Spending Plan was presented to the Board of Trustees • June 13, 2008 Reviewed by BOT • July 17, 2008 BOT approves FY2009 Spending Plan

(shift differential) (107,034) Fringe Benefits (667,719) Other Expenses (consulting & prof. services) ( 383,268) Total ($2,036,716)
STRATEGIES THAT ARE BEING APPLIED TO MANAGE THE BUDGET: • Focus of budget management is adherence to Strategic Plan • Enrollment teams: • Enrollment Management Council • Enrollment Operations Committee • Summer Enrollment Committee • Graduate Council • Deans Council
Energy Conservation: • Locked rate for electricity • Planned reverse auction for natural gas • Conservation initiatives (switches, controls, temp. regulation & light bulbs) • New electrical & mechanical systems for Earl Hall, Jennings & Lyman • Facility Usage: • Ensure that we are recovering our costs for outside facility rental • Pursue opportunities to increase other revenue streams • Vigilance on the expense side of the budget
HIRING FREEZE - EFFECTIVE MAY 29, 2008 • All administration and faculty positions are covered by the freeze • University may request an exemption for public health and safety reasons • Every effort must be made to minimize overtime expense • There will be no relief from the part-time cap in the current AAUP collective bargaining agreement • Use of outside consultants will be closely scrutinized • Any management positions that become vacant in the Fall 2008 will remain vacant at least until January 2009
OUT-OF-STATE TRAVEL – RESTRICTION May 29, 2008 – Chancellor Carter requested the university presidents to authorize out-of-state travel requests that are “deemed essential to university business.” • Exceptions are: • Contractually–mandated travel • Student clubs/organizations funded from student activity funds • Grant funded travel • Quarterly reports to demonstrate savings • If savings are not apparent, then an overall moratorium will be placed on out-of-state travel
WHERE ARE WE NOW? • Expecting another 2% rescission • Developing strategies to increase enrollment where we have interest and capacity (Graduate School) • Focusing on recruitment of transfer students (Compac Agreements) • Working to retain undergraduate students through to graduation
