1. FY 2004-05 Draft Budget and Work Program
|
Rick Pearce. Chief Financial Officer |
| 2. Proposed Amendments to
Regulation III – Fees Staff has prepared two amendment proposals for Regulation III – Fees for Board consideration. Option A consists of a Consumer Price Index (CPI) adjustment of 1.6 percent and has additional proposals to better align select program revenue and expenses. To partially address the shortfall between revenue and expenditures for FY 2004-05 that resulted primarily from legally mandated funding requirements, staff has prepared an alternative proposal, Option B. Option B is identical to Option A except that fees are increased by 12 percent over two years. In FY 2004-05, the fees are increased across the board by 6 percent; and additionally in FY 2005-06, they are increased by another 6 percent. The Board may reconsider the increase in FY 2005-06 based on their assessment of the fiscal need at that time. |
