The administrative team has outlined a list of requests for additional expenditures for FY 15 (as compared to FY 14). The team will present their summaries and ask for board feedback. These requests will be adjusted based on the feedback and also based on the projected FY 15 revenue (presented previously in the agenda).  Administrative FY15 budget requests total $487,416. We will also need to budget for contractual increases as appropriate.

                                        9.4. Informational Items/Board and Administrative Reports                 
                    
        Description: 
Due to the potential length of the meeting, I would ask that the administrative team only answer questions about the reports and refrain from reading their reports out loud.
