Agenda Item Summary:
|
The following document will be discussed during the FY 2024 Budget Work Session on September 22, 2022:
Five-Year Fiscal Forecast: The FY 2023 – FY 2028 Operating Fund Fiscal Forecast reflects the financial challenges that the Division will face in the coming years. Over the previous decade, student enrollment and expenditures have increased at a far quicker pace than the corresponding revenue has grown. ACPS Staff analysis shows that this trend will continue into the future, requiring a combination of revenue enhancements and expenditure reductions to balance a projected budget gap.
For FY 2024, the projected budget deficit is $12.05 million. Each year, as expenditures outpace revenues, the estimated budget gap will continue to expand. By FY 2028, the annual funding deficit projection grows to $37.83 million.
This fiscal forecast begins with the FY 2023 Final Operating Fund Budget which was balanced with the use of $9.32 million in fund balance ($3.77M transfer to support CIP). In each fiscal year, beginning with FY 2024, adjustments were made to reflect the anticipated revenue and expenditure assumptions. These assumptions (based on historical data and analysis of the operating impacts of the Capital Improvement Program) will be discussed in the work session.
