College proposes no increase in property tax, 3% faculty/staff compensation increase, no layoffs or furloughs (earlier approved 5% tuition increase), Board has final word
The Yavapai Community College District Governing Board will meet on-line for its monthly general meeting and a public budget meeting this Tuesday, May 12 beginning at 1 p.m. The first order of business will involve presentation of the College’s proposed 2020-2021 Budget. (See earlier Blog post with links to meeting and how to register if you want to participate.)
Other than additional Property Tax revenues from new construction, the College is not requesting an increase in the property tax levy for the coming fiscal year. The Budget is posted on the Yavapai College website (www.yc.edu/budget ), which you can reach by clicking here.
Earlier in the year the Governing Board approved a 5% increase in student tuition. The proposed budget anticipates a 3% increase in faculty/staff compensation. It also anticipates no faculty/staff layoffs or furloughs. The Board will vote on the final budget at this meeting.
