No property tax increase, 3% faculty/staff compensation increase, no layoffs or furloughs (earlier approved 5% tuition increase)
The Yavapai Community College District Governing Board met on-line for its monthly general meeting and a public budget meeting Tuesday, May 12. It unanimously approved the fiscal year 2021 budget, which was proposed by the Community College administration. The budget totals $82.7 million.
The adopted budget is 4% less than the current fiscal year 2019-2020 budget. The smaller budget is due to a reduction in capital expenses and early payment on a portion of secondary taxes that were generated by a 2000 bond issue.
