Kalbert Young<\/a>, 东精影业<\/abbr> vice president for budget and finance and chief financial officer, shares his analysis of the 2016 legislative session.<\/strong><\/p>\n

May 5 was the final day of the 2016 legislative regular session. The legislature<\/a> adjourned passing hundreds of bills—some of which were of interest or concern to the university. Of course, the most significant of these is the supplemental budget for the State of Hawaiʻi<\/span>. <\/p>\n

The University of Hawaiʻi<\/span><\/a> worked very hard with a number of lawmakers to advance the university’s needs and priorities. <\/p>\n

The supplemental budget bill has been passed by the legislature and now moves to the governor for his approval. Barring any unlikely veto of budget items by the governor, let’s take a look at how the University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> is represented for funding in the budget. Below is a comparison of the items requested by the Board of Regents<\/a> back in January versus what was included in the budget bill for the university. <\/p>\n

Over the course of the past 5 months, there has been much media coverage about some of the key funding priorities of the university. Deferred maintenance is a major capital concern and 东精影业<\/abbr> had asked for $184.9 million in general obligation bond funds to support a capital campaign for deferred maintenance for the next fiscal year. The state budget contains a total of $182.75 million worth of general obligation bond appropriation for specific project funding and $30 million in revenue bonds. This represents significant progress in public and university funding towards deferred capital needs throughout the 东精影业<\/abbr> System.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The University of Hawaiʻi<\/span> is grateful and appreciative of the support that the legislature has provided this session—especially in providing resources to make progress on our decades-old deferred maintenance backlog. Much more work will need to be done and future funding support will continue to be needed. We look forward to continuing to improve our partnership and to work together as a community to improve and better our state’s only public university system.<\/p>\n

The budget bill is expected to be signed by the governor before the start of the next fiscal year which begins on July 1, 2016.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
