Slide 1:
On Jan. 18, 2011 Chancellor Mark James and the administrative staff presented an updated budget picture to faculty and staff.
Over the past few years, MCC has reduced the operation budget to handle the state budget cutbacks without reducing salary or benefits. We are now at the point where these conversations need to take place.
Since 2008-09, when the economy began to slow, MCC has reduced its operation budget by $12.9 million. That equates to 10.9% of the original operating budget for 2010-11.
Slide 2:
As the FY budget for 2011 is put together, officials already know they will see a 5 percent reduction from the state. For FY ’12 that state aide is expected to drop another 17 percent.
As the state continues to cut the mount of money it provides, the cost of providing the employee benefits has continued to increase.
Health Insurance: The cost of the current employee health insurance program has increased in cost by 100 percent over the past 8 years.
Early retirement: In eight years the early retirement program has increased in cost by 92 percent.
Other post-employee benefits (health, vision, dental): In eight years the cost of these benefits alone has increased by 141 percent.
Slide 3:
This slide provides a quick overview and a snapshot of the balance shett as of June 30, 2010. The comparisons show how people's personal asseits and liabilities compare to those of MCC's. For example: employees checking and savings accounts are like MCC's cash and investments: mortgage payments are like bond payments; etc.

Slide 4:
Using our current budget assumptions, officials have been able to project the balances of three of MCC major financial accounts if we continue without changing the budget significantly.
The first column (Operating Funds) shows that starting in the next budget cycle the college will be operating with a $1.289 million budget deficit. The next year MCC will have a $5.873 budget deficit and so on.
The second column (Plant Fund) tracks the amount of money invested, collected and paid for our physical facilities such as buildings, offices, etc. MCC receives rent for some facilities and is making payments in several areas. Without change, that budget will operate with a deficit of $2.422 million in FY ’11.
The third column looks at the savings MCC has on hand. Without changing the savings on hand will be depleted by FY15.
Slide 5:
MCC is exploring several options to produce more revenue for the budget. They include Annexation into new school districts, increasing class sizes, adjusting class schedules, perusing new grants, the Institute for Workforce Innovation, leasing offices space or tuition increases.
Slide 6:
MCC is also looking at ways to reduce spending through possible health insurance adjustments, early retirement adjustments, premium pay elimination, lock down spending, process improvements, allocation model and others.
Slide 7:
MCC will also be looking at adjusting the allocation model, which determines funding for the individual campuses.
Slide 8:
Budget process
Slide 9:
Officers and BRT members have put together an aggressive schedule for adjusting the budget and compensation packages by July 2012
Slide 10:
Thank you.
As we continue to look at the numbers from the state and MCC’s current budget projections, we can see the specific areas of concern for officers and the Budget Response Team.
Slide 1:
Over the next 5 years state officials have said they will be reducing the amount of money the legislature will allocate to MCC and other college in Missouri.. For FY10, the state allocated $33.861 million.
For FY11, the state is expected to drop that allocation to $32.100 million. The allocation will continue to drop until FY15 when it will level out at an allocation of only $25.327 million.
Slide 2:
Looking at the current spending and projected cuts in state funding, budget officials have predicted that we will run a $450,000 budget deficit in FY11. The following year that deficit will increase to $4.78 million. By FY15 that deficit $15.6 million.
Slide 3:
The deficit predicted is being created, in part, by an increase in the cost of several major benefit programs. The first column outlines those major programs. The second column shows how much those programs cost individually in 2002. The third column is how much it cost in 2010.
Slide 4:
Using projections of retirement benefits budget officials have predicted that by other retirement employee benefits will continue to increase until FY15. By then those OPEBs will cost MCC $3.4 million.
Slide 5:
Much like slide three, this chart shows the employee benefits offered by MCC and how much those programs cost in 2002. By 2010 the cost of those programs has increased from $11.7 million to $18.33 million.
