  • FY13 Enacted Legislative Intent
    Michelle Rizk, Associate Vice President Budget (907) 450-8187 PO BOX 755260 (907) 450-8181 fax 910 Yukon Drive Ste. 108 [email protected] Fairbanks, AK 99775-5260 November 28, 2012 Amanda Ryder Senior Fiscal Analyst/Operating Budget Alaska Legislative Finance Division P.O. Box 113200 Juneau, AK 99811-3200 Dear Ms. Ryder: Included below is the University of Alaska’s actions in regard to the FY13 enacted legislative intent. UNIVERSITY OF ALASKA Operating Budget (CCS HB 284) It is the intent of the legislature that the University of Alaska submits a FY14 budget in which requests for unrestricted general fund increments do not exceed the amount of additional University Receipts requested for that year. It is the intent of the legislature that future budget requests of the University of Alaska for unrestricted general funds move toward a long-term goal of 125 percent of actual University Receipts for the most recently closed fiscal year. The University of Alaska believes the purpose of the intent language was to 1) stabilize the general fund level; 2) incent generation of non-general fund revenue; and 3) inform Regents of the true budget constraints that will exist in the future as they negotiate salaries and enter into other financial commitments. The University of Alaska's FY14 budget request reflects the legislature's intent. The budget request for the University of Alaska exercises tight spending discipline while limiting growth, and yet preserving and when necessary, investing in essential infrastructure. UA’s comprehensive plan for materially improving higher education in Alaska began in FY13, with the Strategic Direction Initiative (SDI).
