Major Program Changes
  • An increase of $126 million Proposition 98 General Fund for 2.21 percent growth in apportionments, sufficient to fund approximately 26,000 FTES.

  • A decrease of $22.9 million Proposition 98 General Fund to reflect a -0.38 percent cost-of-living adjustment for apportionments (-$22.1 million) and applicable categorical programs (-$786,000).

  • An increase of $39.3 million Proposition 98 General Fund to offset estimated decreases in local property taxes ($33.7 million), oil and mineral revenues ($1.6 million), and student fee revenues ($1.9 million); plus increased costs to compensate colleges for the administration of fee waivers ($2.1 million).

  • An increase of $163 million Proposition 98 General Fund to reflect the increased Community College deferral from $540 million to $703 million.

  • A decrease of $48 million Proposition 98 General Fund reflecting the one-time nature of the 2009-10 agreement to fund the Quality Education Investment Act's (QEIA) Career Technical Education (CTE) program through the proceeds of the 2009-10 Proposition 98 Guaranty. QEIA payments from settle-up funding resume in 2010-11, thereby providing the same level of funding in the budget year.
