Operating Budget, 2006-2007

 

Background

This year, for the second time, Windward Community College is publishing its operating budget and making it available to the entire college community. Windward Community College is committed to an open and inclusive budget development process that utilizes the College Mission and the Windward 2002/2010 Strategic Plan as the primary document for prioritization of all discretionary expenditures. The Strategic Plan is reviewed for revision annually in response to program reviews and critical changes in the college environment.

In spring of each year, Deans and Directors work with their units to develop budget requests. Justifications and priorities are prepared based on demonstrated need (program review and assessment data), college priorities (Strategic Plan), or emergency circumstances. These requests and justifications are submitted to the Budget Committee.

In April and May, the Budget Committee reviews the requests and recommends expenditures based on justifications. When requests exceed, or fail to be met by, available funds, the Budget Committee recommends prioritization and adjustments using the strategic plan priorities. In June, the Chancellor will determine the final operating budget for the year considering Budget Committee recommendations, other sources of funds, etc.

For 2006?/2007, the college is fortunate to be anticipating an increase in available funds. The Budget committee and the administration decided to allocate the annual budget in multiple rounds. An increased base allocation and additional internal allocations were made in July. Then, in October and again in January, the actual revenues and expenditures for the first two quarters will replace the estimates used for budgeting. At that time cuts or additional allocations will be recommended to the Chancellor by the Budget Committee. In April, final adjustments for the year will be made if necessary. The Budget Committee will be consulted on any interim adjustments. The budget and its back-up documents will be posted on the college web page.

The following pages provide the beginning Annual Operating Budget for 2006/2007.
