RE: Internal Budget Document – FY 2005-2006
I am pleased to provide the University community with a reference document detailing
general fund budget allocations and salary data for budgeted positions. The Internal
Budget document also overviews budgets for University College & Extension Services,
Housing, Student Health Center Facility Fee, Parking and Lottery funds.
After three years of reductions to divisional operating budgets, our base general fund increased this year by $21.8M: $11.9M to our state appropriation, $8.7M in state university fees due to both enrollment growth and fee rate increases, and $1.2M for increases in various pass-through revenue sources such as Student Health Services. Although the majority of the base increment went towards mandatory costs, the favorable budget allowed us to fund the campus Recovery Plan with $2M to support enrollment growth and $3M to restore divisional operating budgets.
University wide carryover savings allowed the university to further supplement operations with nonrecurring funds totaling $7.8M, of which $3.8M was earmarked for Instruction. These one time allocations and each division's prior yearend balance (carryover) are shown with base budget data in the summary pages of the document. Please note that although the salary pages reflect employee compensation as of October 1, 2005, the budget to cover this fiscal year’s salary increases was not allocated to divisional operating accounts until December 2005.
The production of this comprehensive report requires a significant effort and I want to thank all of those persons involved for their contributions. Questions regarding this document may be directed to the Office of Budget Management at extension 5-4799.
