BUDGET CENTRAL: California on the Rebound, Community College League’s Scott Lay Reports As we enter May, we near a significant milestone in the development of California’s next budget as the governor prepares to release his May Revise. Reporting from last month’s AACC conference in San Francisco, Scott Lay of the Community College League of California reported that “budget geeks” have their eye on tax revenues because 20.7% of the state’s personal income taxes are collected in April. Revenue was also running ahead of projec- tions through February, Lay said. California estimates state revenue at $16 billion in April, $13 billion of which is per- sonal income tax, Lay said. We will all know more when the gover- nor reveals his May Revise budget proposal, which is anticipated to be released May 14. The Legislative Analyst will then review the governor’s projections and offer its own pro- jections if they have a different perspective. Learn more at http://www.nocccd.edu/ BudgetNews.htm.
