Statement for Accessing Budget
Priorities
The Budget committee would like to provide you some basic advice as
you create your program review and unit plans resource requests.
Funding for equipment will come from the Bond:
Funding allocated for instructional equipment from the Bond will be
approximately 1.2 million dollars for this coming academic year
2011-2012. From this amount Chabot wide requests, will be funded.
With that in mind, we encourage you to categorize your resource
requests in the following priority classifications:
Priority 1: Are critical requests
required to sustain a program (if not acquired,
program may be in peril) or to meet mandated requirements of local,
state or federal regulations or those regulations of a accrediting
body for a program.
Priority 2: Are needed requests that
will enhance a program but are not so critical as to
jeopardize the life of a program if not received in the requested
academic year.
Priority 3: Are requests that are
enhancements, non-critical resource requests that
would be nice to have and would bring additional benefit to the
program.
If you have requested resources in that past and did not receive it,
feel free to carry over these requests in this new academic year
2011-2012 and prioritize them in accordance with the statements
above. Also, please feel free to contact the Budget Committee, most
especially its Chair, Tim Dave (x6881) if you further clarification
of how you are to determine your budget request.
As a special note, if during the academic year a
"critical/emergency" equipment need arises, please contact the
Budget committee as we will do our best to help you find means to
fund this need if possible.
