Five Year Forecast Green Local Schools Update May 2013
Future Revenue?? • Property values have declined from the previous year - $( 32 Million) • HB920 will cause levies’ effective millage to increase to offset this decline • The district is assuming the passage of the renewal levies in 2014 and 2016
State Revenue….hmmm • Casino Revenue is estimated from the Dept of Tax. at $52 per student. This is paid in August and January. • The new biennium budget has yet to be released though the new fiscal year begins in 32 days.
Budget Bill 2014 Without a passage of HB 59 districts are forced to guess as to whether we will see an increase in state aid over the next 2 fiscal years. Green Local Schools has flat lined their state revenue until it is passed into law.
Governor Kasich’s original plan called for GLS to receive $86,000 additional revenue per year The House version is promising between $560K to $600K per year in additional state dollars The Senate held a press conference today at 2:00 and is proposing $622K in year one and a million dollar increase in year 2
So why flat line revenue? • Gov. Kasich’s plan did not address the increase in dollars his plan would give to charter schools. • Both the House and Senate have not addressed this issue either but both say they plan to change the way charter schools are funded. • Transportation funding is mysteriously left out of all plans
Expenses….Expenses • 80% of our expenses comes from staff salaries and benefits. • GLS was awarded 3 premium holidays in FY13 and 2 holidays in FY14 for insurance. That is a savings of nearly $2.5 million over the 2 year period. • Medical insurance rates for FY14 have increased just 4.5% - industry standard = 10%
Legal fees for FY13 are over 10X the normal average from the last 5 years and have caused significant budget constraints. • HVAC and elevator repairs have caused a shift in maintenance expenses from PI to general funds
Budget Cuts With the uncertainty of the Budget Bill the district has been forced to implement budget cuts for next year: • 20% of building budgets for supplies/materials • The reduction of 7 staff members thru attrition • The reduction of building projects, professional development and technology equipment
Significant Assumptions: • Personnel Costs will be reduced by a large amount of retirements due to new STRS laws taking effect in 2015 • No base increases in salaries in this forecast • Approval of 2 renewal levies in 2014 & 2016 • Legal fees will be reduced to normal levels • At least 1 or more medical insurance premium holidays
Where are we ending up? 2013 $2,080,642 2014 $1,497,400 2015 $ 673,327 2016$( 161,351) 2017 $(2,180,588)
