| Topic: | New Business: Period Review of Over/Under Budget Spending Variances Report |
| Presenter: | Al Munoz |
| Summary of Agenda Item: | Al provided several handouts to the group and supplied detailed explanation as he took everyone the information contained within the handouts. Some conversation with regard to the 50% rule and breaking out employee benefits. Taking that piece further, Al stated that the Business Office is working on breaking out the academic and instructional/non-instructional salaries and then the benefits. This is a time consuming effort because it has to be done manually however his office is working on it. Al further commented that he will be bringing the committee up to date with regard to where the college is on 50%; this will now be tracked monthly. Further discussion ensued with regard to 50%.
Al explained that another area where caution needs to be exercised is with operating expenses and services. Currently we are at approximately 44% but in that percentage there are one-time expenses so we may see that decrease over the next several months.
Additionally, the reserve will be increased to 5% from a current 3%.
