Chair Ahern released his proposed budget for the House
Higher Ed. committee. There was no line item for performance funding. In his
budget there is an increase to the WF of $2,549,106. This increase covers the
cost of line items #4,5,6,7,and 8, which benefit individual institutions. There
may be a slight increase in the fund, but I need to look at the total cost of
the individual projects funded last year.
There is not a run available which provide proposed funding
by district for this projection.
You will note Workforce did not receive a reduction, however
the state colleges received a 36,674,000 million dollars reduction and the
state university system a 106,928,136 million dollar proposed reductions.
They were instructed they could use the carryforward monies to cover the
reductions.
The Senate will come forward tomorrow with their budget
recommendations.
