Approval of Monthly Budget Overview for the Period Ending December 31, 2023 Meeting Feb 22, 2024 - Regular Governing Board Meeting Type Action Recommended Action Approval of Monthly Budget Overview for the Period Ending December 31, 2023 The following financial statements include all information known as of December 31, 2023. FINANCIAL SUMMARY (GENERAL FUND) (Page 1) On December 31, 2023, the reserve for economic uncertainties was $15.3 million, which is 4.5 percent of the working budget. In addition, the components of the projected ending fund balance also include Nonspendable: revolving cash, stores inventory, and prepaid; Restricted: categorical; Committed: vacancy savings, school & department carryovers, IT equipment refresh, classification study impact, synthetic turf & track replacement, Deferred Maintenance contribution (24/25); teacher laptop refresh (24/25-27/28), school safety, and budget reduction mitigation; and Assigned: budget flexibility. FINANCIAL SUMMARY (GENERAL FUND) – UNRESTRICTED ONLY (Page 2) This schedule shows the unrestricted portion of the budget. The schedule shows expenditures in excess of revenues in the amount of $6,887,953 (deficit spending). PIE CHARTS (Pages 3-4) Revenue shows 71.0 percent of our total income is generated by the Local Control Funding Formula (LCFF), which is directly related to our average daily attendance (ADA). Any changes in ADA will directly impact the amount of funds we receive. Expenditures for salaries and benefits equate to 82.1 percent of total expenditures, minus other outgo for debt service payments, tuition, and indirect costs. INCOME (Page 1) Projected revenues through December 2023, amount to $323.8 million. Since the Adopted Budget, adjustments have been made to the Federal, State and Local revenues. The $13.1 million increase is comprised of the following: $4.8 million increase in program funds re-budgeted from prior year unspent balances, $.4 million increase in Federal ESEA dollars, $1.5 million increase in CA Community Schools Partnership Program (CCSPP), $2.7 million increase for Arts and Music in Schools Prop 28, $1.7 million increase for electric bus Air Pollution Control Board Grant and Hybrid & Zero Emission Voucher Incentives, and $2.0 million increase in miscellaneous program balances. Refer to details on pages 5-9. EXPENDITURES (Page 1) The forecast through December 2023 is $339.0 million. It includes all known program changes and carryovers from 2022-23. Changes from the Adopted Budget include carryover balances re-budgeted from prior year unspent balances, projected unexpended adjustments, impacts from bargaining, department and school site allocation adjustments, position growth, school safety, classroom technology, and additional expenditures offset by new revenues. Refer to pages 10 and 11 for a more detailed analysis. ROUTINE MAINTENANCE ACCOUNT (Page 12) Senate Bill 50, the Leroy F. Greene School Facilities Act of 1998, requires that school districts who accepted school construction funds under this Act must comply with the requirement to deposit and subsequently spend three percent of the total general fund adopted budget on maintenance on an annual basis for 20 years. Actual expenditures through December 31, 2023, amount to $4.9 million. AVERAGE DAILY ATTENDANCE (ADA) (Page 13) The projected P2 ADA for 23/24 is 14,875.20. However, per the state funding model, the District’s regular ADA funding is based upon the greater of current year, prior year or 3-prior year average and thus the adopted budget reflects funded ADA of 15,644.43 (three year prior average). CASH FLOW (Page 14) The year-to-date ending cash balance amounts to $84.6 million. No short-term cash borrowing via TRANS is required this year. UTILITIES (Pages 15-16) The District has experienced a 4.1 percent increase in electrical consumption from last year. The cost for electricity increased by 15.6 percent from last year's expenditures, through December. Gas consumption through December increased by 1.8 percent from last year, and costs were 7.2 percent lower. Water usage through December decreased by 5.3 percent when compared to last year and costs increased by 5.3 percent. ADULT EDUCATION FINANCIAL SUMMARY (Pages 17-21) The December financials show the fund is deficit spending by $.1 million, but this amount is offset by a carryover balance from 2022-23 of $4.1 million leaving a projected ending balance of $4.0 million. Cash balance at December 31, 2023, is $2.8 million.
