City Colleges continues to face numerous challenges as it prepares for anotherfiscal year. The State does not have a structurally balanced budget. This uncertainty of funding negativelyeffects sound long term financial planning practices and the development of strong collegeacademic programs. ICCB capital appropriations for Olive Harvey 30 million, Wright 5 million and Truman 5 millionhave been appropriated for but not yet funded. Basic infrastructure and equipment are old and inadequate, requiring high maintenance and repaircosts. Due to the aging building infrastructure at the City Colleges of Chicago, it is becomingincreasingly difficult to attract students. Currently, there is a deferred maintenance backlog thatexceeds 600 million. The intense competition for student recruitment from public and private four-year institutions, aswell as proprietary schools in Chicago continues. Many students entering the City Colleges system require additional assistance such as remedialmath, English and tutoring costing District over 20 million per year. State wide funding continues to remain fairly stagnant due to a lack of any inflationary increases instatewide funding for community colleges remaining well below FY2002 levels.Funding Resources Community colleges initially were intended to be funded equally from three sources: propertytaxes, state funding and tuition and fees. The State is not funding its share.o Total FY2011 resources equal 312.9 million from the following sources: 38% propertytaxes, 37% tuition and fees, 20% state, and 5% other.264263
