6. 58771 – Funding for New Colleges and New Centers
Beginning in the fiscal year, basic allocation funding augmentations for new colleges, new centers, and for increases in college size, will be provided in the year following the approval or increase in size occurs.
The Chancellor’s Office and the Association of Chief Business Officials (ACBO) board members agree that improving funding predictability is especially important when the system is running a general deficit due to revenue shortfalls from property taxes or student fees.
Waiting to fund any new college, new center, or increase in college size until the following fiscal year, will prevent late-year funding shortfalls for the system caused by such augmentations.
