This document outlines the recent changes in funding for South Orange County Community College through the adoption of Senate Bill 361. The transition from the previous program-based funding system to a simplified three-step funding formula is discussed. Key elements include the foundation amount, credit, and non-credit Full-Time Equivalent Students (FTES), and the implications of Cost of Living Adjustments (COLA). Additionally, an analysis of the financial health of community college districts, including beginning balances and funding sources, is provided for the 2006-07 fiscal year.

SOUTH ORANGE COUNTY COMMUNITY COLLEGE BUDGETS AND COMPENSATION
The old system • Program Based funding (5 elements) • PRIOR YEAR APPORTIONMENT (BASE FUND) • COLA • PROGRAM IMPROVEMENT (EQUALIZATION) • GROWTH / DECLINE / RESTORATION • STABILITY 1 YEAR BAILOUT FOR DECLINING ENROLLMENT
The new formula • Program based funding is now a thing of the past. • A new formula for funding community colleges was adopted by the passage of Senate Bill 361. • The formula simplifies funding from a complicated five step process to a three step process. • Foundation amount • Credit FTES • Non credit FTES
CREDIT REVENUE (Step 2) • EQUALIZATION = TARGET OF 90% • 90% =$ 3,955 PER FTES (05-06) • COLA OF 4.23 % =$ 4,123 • MULTIPLY 2005-06 P-2 FTES BY $4,123 AND YOU GET BASE CREDIT REVENUE
NON CREDIT REVENUE (Step 3) • NON CREDIT REVENUE IS APPROXIMATELY 60% OF CREDIT REVENUE • $ 4,123 TIMES 60% = $ 2,479 • MULTIPLY NON CREDIT FTES BY $ 2,479 AND THAT EQUALS INCOME
Program Based Funding
2006-07 COLA OF 5.92% IS APPLIED TO ALL BASES
AFTER COLA IS APPLIED • GROWTH FOR 06-07 IS CALCULATED AT 4,367 PER CREDIT FTES WHICH INCLUDES NEW 5.92 % COLA • GROWTH FOR NON CREDIT IS 2,626 • A DISTRICT WILL NOT GET GROWTH MONEY IF THEY HAVE PRIOR YEAR(S) RESTORATION TO MAKE UP
HYPOTHETICAL IF A DISTRICT RESTORES ALL LOST FTES FROM PRIOR THREE YEARS AND GROWS UP TO 2%
As always Community College funding is from the same sources as in the past. • FEDERAL INCOME • STATE INCOME • LOCAL INCOME • BEGINNING BALANCE
