Introduction
Citizens of the Western Technical College District: We are pleased to present this 2016-17 budget, which supports the mission of the Western Technical College District (Western) to provide relevant, high quality education, in a collaborative and sustainable environment, that changes the lives of students and grows our communities. The budget is the fiscal plan for the operation of Western for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2016 and ending June 30, 2017. This document represents the efforts of the District Board and the Western staff to allocate available resources in order to provide quality educational programs and services to the citizens of the District. Several major points should be highlighted as you review this budget:
• The budget focuses on allocating resources in a manner that is consistent with the College’s Mission, Vision and Values. All budget decisions were driven by the strategic goals and four key results of Western as outlined on page 9.
• The budget maintains the College’s emphasis on instruction with particular focus on student success in meeting program and educational goals.
• The budget reflects the fact that the District is called upon to deliver services to meet local
needs, such as retraining dislocated workers, and serving students of color, students needing to complete a High School Credential, and adults seeking a GED certificate.
• Enrollment at Western is anticipated to increase approximately 2% in 2016-17. Western is in the process of implementing enrollment management strategies to help the college achieve its goal of serving 10,000 students by 2020.
• It continues to emphasize Continuous Quality Improvement in conducting District activities.
This has been recognized by receipt of the Mastery Level of the Wisconsin Forward Award and the Higher Learning Commission’s Academic Quality Improvement Program checkup report.
• This budget recognizes improvements in college transfer opportunities with other institutions
of higher learning. Western continues to offer the Associate of Science Liberal Arts Transfer degree program with the University of Wisconsin–La Crosse and has seen steady growth in this since beginning in 2009. Also included are collaborative degree programs with Viterbo University, University of Wisconsin, Winona State University, Milwaukee School of Engineering, and others.
• Western continues to deliver curriculum across the District, as well as between districts,
providing maximum access to students using the latest in technology and distance education techniques.
• Western continues to reallocate operational funds internally as a major source of funding
new programming. This year, approximately $1.3 million was reallocated (including 7 FTE positions).
June 21, 2016 7
• The budget reflects approximately $800,000 in new programs and initiatives (including 5 FTE positions). The District also transitioned approximately $200,000 from grant funding to on-going district funding (including 3 FTE positions).
• The budget reflects an investment in recruitment and marketing efforts with a focus on recruitment of adult learners and flexible learning options.
• The budget emphasizes initiatives designed to enhance cooperative relationships with businesses, public and private K-12 systems, colleges, universities and other technical college districts and governmental agencies.
• The budget reflects a historic change in Wisconsin State Statutes providing approximately
$15 million in a dollar for dollar reduction in property tax funding with an in increase in state aid funding. This shift occurred in fiscal year 2015.
• The budget reflects the final phases of construction of referendum projects approved by the voters of the Western Technical College District on November 6, 2012. This was a $79.8 million referendum that included six major projects. All projects are scheduled for completion this fiscal year. Please visit Western’s website for specific details on the six projects.
• The budget continues to encourage the improvement of internal and external communication
to allow better public input into college activities and maintains a high level of operational feedback from students, employees, District Board members, and others.
• It supports the commitments Western has made related to environmental and operational
sustainability, including, but not limited to: enhancing energy conservation efforts, transitioning toward LEED certified facilities, reducing its carbon footprint, etc.
• Western continues to be a very cost effective college with a cost per student ranking in the
lower half of the Wisconsin Technical College System. While resources are restricted, the District is once again maintaining a conservative posture which reflects the needs and financial limitations of the Western District. This budget will allow the District to continue to move forward to meet its strategic goals and achieve its key results. Your questions and comments concerning any phase of our operation are welcome.

SIGNIFICANT BUDGET CHANGES
I. General Fund
A. Revenue
1. Local: The tax levy for operations is projected to increase approximately $360,000 in 2016-17
compared to a similar increase of approximately $340,000 in 2015-16. The College saw a dramatic
reduction in tax levy revenue in 2014-15 as a result of legislation passed in January 2014 that
reduced technical college property taxes and replaced that revenue dollar-for-dollar with $406
million annually in new state funding. Each district’s operating mill rate was reduced by .89.
The mill rate for operations for 2016-2017 is estimated to be .610171. The equalized valuation is
estimated to increase 2.00% from 2015. The equalized valuation for each municipality within the
District, which consists of all or parts of 11 counties, is established by the Wisconsin Department of
Revenue. As taxes levied by municipalities are based on assessed valuation, each individual
municipality’s mill rate may vary from the District’s equalized valuation mill rate.
2. State: Total state aids are projected to decrease approximately $517,000 in 2016-17. $15,200,000
of state aid is attributed to property tax relief and will be distributed based on the reduced levy
amount from 2014-2015. State incentive aid is based on competitive requests for grants in areas
such as emerging occupations and basic skills training programs.
The remaining general state aid will be distributed based on the District’s equalized valuation,
“aidable cost,” and aidable full-time equivalent students relative to the other fifteen technical
colleges in the state as well as a percentage that will be distributed based on a performance-based
funding model. In 2014-15, 10% of the statutory formula aid was distributed using the
performance based funding model. This percentage increased to 20% in 2015-16 and will increase
to 30% for 2016-2017.
3. Student Fees: Program (tuition) fees are expected to increase by an estimated 3.5% over 2015-16.
The rates themselves are set annually by the Wisconsin Technical College Board. The increase
assumes an estimated 2% increase in student numbers over 2015-16, and recognizes a 1.5%
increase in tuition rates.
4. Institutional: Institutional revenue is projected to increase approximately $52,000.
5. Federal: Federal revenue is projected to decrease approximately $300,000. The decrease is due
primarily to the completion of a large federal grant.
B. Expenditures
Budgeted General Fund expenditures for 2016-17 are expected to decrease .90% over 2015-16. The
decrease is due to a reduction in relocation costs related to the referendum projects and a decrease in
expenses related to federal grants.
June 21, 2016 10
II. Special Revenue – Aidable
These funds primarily account for business and industry contracts. Revenues and expenditures are
expected to increase approximately $125,000 during 2016-2017 due to additional business and industry
contracts.
III. Special Revenue – Non-Aidable
These funds account for student financial assistance, student activities and clubs, and other student
related activities. Revenue and expenditures are expected to increase approximately $1,200,000 during
2016-2017.
IV. Capital Projects
The District is proposing to borrow $9,785,000 during Fiscal Year 2016-17 for 2016-17 projects and
some 2017-18 projects. Some projects that were budgeted and started in 2015-16 will be carried
forward and finished in 2016-17. Capital projects expenditures for 2016-17 are expected to decrease
approximately $4.5 million to $23.5 million. These expenditures will be for the planned uses as
indicated in the schedule on page 33 of this document.
V. Debt Service
The tax levy for debt service is estimated to increase approximately $700,000 over 2015-16. The
anticipated interest rate on new borrowing is 2.0% - 3.0%, with a redemption schedule of five years for
equipment, 10 years for remodeling, and 15-20 years for new construction.
VI. Proprietary Funds – Enterprise & Internal Service
The enterprise funds account for the bookstore, day care center, residence hall, food service, job center,
and the wellness center. The internal service funds account for the PC resale operations, self-funded
dental insurance, and post-retirement health insurance coverage. Total expenditures are estimated to
increase approximately $413,000 over 2015-16.
VII. Tax Levy
The District’s proposed total mill rate for 2016-17 is 1.585625, representing .610171 mills for
operations and 0.975454 mills for debt. This represents an increase of .008205 mills from 2015-16.
This is based on estimated equalized valuations increasing 2.00% from 2015-16. This is approximately
an $.82 increase on a $100,000 home.
The District’s proposed total levy for 2016-17 is $29,043,918, representing $11,168,918 for operations
and $17,875,000 for debt. This represents an increase of $716,607 from 2015-16.
The Board will set the tax levy at the October Board meeting when the equalized valuations and more
accurate projections on state aids are available.
June 21, 2016 11
NEW ACTIVITIES
In a continued climate of significant budget constraints, new College initiatives, as well
as operating cost increases, are being funded primarily through the reallocation of District
funds. These new initiatives are critical to meeting the College’s strategic goals and
achieving its key results. Major new activities funded in the 2016-17 budget include:
Continuing work on projects approved by voter referendum. Four of the six
major projects have been substantially completed. The final two projects are
scheduled to be completed during 2016-2017.
Continuing work previously funded by grant dollars. As state grant funding
has shifted and federal grants have reached completion, these initiatives that
are critical to achieving the key results are transitioning to District dollars.
Increasing resources in K12 relations, recruitment and marketing. Additional
dollars have been allocated to increase marketing outside our region and to
market facilities completed with referendum dollars. Additional FTE
positions in recruitment will allow for a focus on adult recruitment as well as
coordination with local high schools on high school academies.
College funds to support new initiatives are available through reallocation of support
from lower priority activities and new revenue enhancements. These reallocations and
enhancements include:
Elimination of 7 FTE positions through retirement and reorganization.
Other planned budget reductions in services, travel, supplies, and equipment.
June 21, 2016 12
PLANNED USE OF FUND BALANCE– GENERAL FUND
Western’s fund balance policy indicates that the college will maintain a reserve for
operations in the general fund equal to 16-25% of operating fund expenditures. Fund
balance should not be used as a resource to balance the budget but may be used to
support one time expenditures or provide seed money for new instructional and support
services priorities. Planned fund balance use of $950,000 for 2016-17 for one time
expenditures and seed money includes:
$75,000 to support the Achieving the Dream initiative that focuses on providing
equitable support to all students so that they can achieve student success.
$35,000 to produce a forecasting tool to assist with Western’s enrollment
management efforts.
$175,000 to market to students outside the region.
$85,000 in seed money to hire an adult recruiter that can help grow adult student
enrollment.
$260,000 to offset subsidies in select enterprise areas. The business plan for the
enterprise fund includes being self-supporting by 2020.
$300,000 to cover the last of the operating costs related to the facilities
referendum. These costs include items such as temporary leases, moving
expenses, etc.
$20,000 in the final spend down of focus on energy funds that were received in
previous years.

DEFINITION OF FUNDS
Fund
A fund is an independent fiscal accounting entity made up of a self-balancing group of accounts, which
is established for a specific purpose or objective. It includes accounts for assets, liabilities, fund
balances, revenues and expenditures necessary to record the financial condition and the results of
operation of the fund. Thus, it refers to more than a sum of money or other resources.
Governmental
Funds
General Fund – The General Fund is the principal operating fund of the District and accounts for all
financial activities of the District not required to be accounted for in another fund.
Special Revenue – Aidable Funds – The Special Revenue – Aidable Funds account for the proceeds
and related financial activities of specified revenue sources that are legally restricted to expenditures
for specified purposes. Western accounts for business and industry contracts within this fund type.
Special Revenue – Non-Aidable Funds – The Special Revenue – Non-Aidable Funds account for
financial resources used for a specific non-aidable purpose such as expendable trusts.
Capital Projects Fund - The Capital Projects Fund accounts for financial resources used for the
acquisition of equipment and the acquisition, construction or improvement of major capital facilities
other than those financed by enterprise or trust fund operations.
Debt Service Fund - The Debt Service Fund is used to account for the accumulation of resources for,
and the payment of general long-term debt, including long-term lease/purchase obligations.
Proprietary
Funds
Enterprise Funds - The Enterprise Funds are used to record revenues and expenses related to
rendering services for students, faculty, staff and the community. These funds are intended to be self-
supporting and are operated in a manner similar to private business where the intent of the District is
that all costs of providing certain goods and services to the students and other aforementioned parties
are recovered primarily through user charges. These services complement the educational and general
objectives of the District.
Internal Service Funds – The Internal Service Funds are used to account for the financing and related
activities of goods and services provided by one department of the District to other departments on a
cost reimbursement basis.
Fiduciary Funds
Trust and Agency Fund – The Trust and Agency Fund is used to account for financial resources held
in a fiduciary capacity by the District.
Due to changes in Governmental Accounting Standards and Reporting, all of the activity in the Trust
and Agency Fund is now accounted for in the Special Revenue Non-Aidable Funds, starting in
2002-03. These funds account for student financial assistance, student activities and clubs, and other
student related activities.
Account Groups
General Fixed Assets Account Group – The General Fixed Assets Account Group is used to establish
accounting control and accountability for the District's general fixed assets that are not recorded in
proprietary funds.
General Long-Term Debt Account Group – This account group presents the balance of general long-
term debt that is not recorded in proprietary funds and is secured by the full faith and credit of the
District. Payments on general obligation and other long-term debts are made from the Debt Service
Fund.

DESCRIPTION OF REVENUE CATEGORIES
Western Technical College has a diversified funding base composed of property taxes, state aid, student
fees, federal grants, and institutionally generated revenues. Western believes that this diversity, the
strength of the local economy and its fiscal management will continue to provide the resources required to
fulfill its mission now and in the future without significant changes in the level of services provided.
Property
Taxes
Western receives approximately one third of its operating funds from local property taxes.
Annually, in October, the property tax levy is billed based upon the equalized value of taxable
property, excluding tax incremental financing districts, to the local municipalities who act as
assessors and collection agencies. All delinquencies are assumed by the respective counties, thus
Western will receive the full amount of its levy. The debt service mill rate is added to the operational
mill rate to get a total mill rate amount.
State
Aids
State aids are provided by the Wisconsin Technical College System (WTCS). Approximately
$15,200,000 of state aid is attributed to property tax relief and is distributed based on the reduced
levy amount.
A percentage of state aid is distributed based on a performance-based funding model. In 2014-15,
10% of the statutory formula aid was distributed using the performance based funding model. The
percentage increased to 20% in 2015-2016 and to 30% in 2016-17.
The remaining state aid is distributed as follows: [(Total general and special revenue-aidable fund
expenditures - all non-property tax or interest income revenue) + debt service expenditures] * (state
average of taxable property per full-time equivalent student/Western taxable property per full-time
equivalent student).
Student
Fees
Fees are collected from students for tuition, materials, and miscellaneous items. Tuition and
material fee rates are set annually by the WTCS based upon estimated total operating expenditures
of all districts. Miscellaneous items include non-resident and out-of-state tuition, group dynamics
course fees, testing fees, application fees, and graduation fees.
Institutional
Revenue
These revenues are generated by business and industry contracts (38.14 contracts) for customized
instruction and technical assistance, technical preparation contracts (tech prep, 118.15 slotter
contracts), interest or investment earnings, and enterprise activities.
Federal
Grants
Western receives federal grants for specific projects and student financial assistance such as Adult
Basic Education, Carl Perkins Act, Pell, Federal Work-Study, Federal Family Education Loan
Program, and Division of Vocational Rehabilitation.
State
Grants
Western receives various state grants for specific projects such as Incentive Grants.

BASIS OF BUDGETING AND ACCOUNTING
BASIS OF BUDGETING
The accounts of Western Technical College are organized on the basis of funds and account groups, each
of which is considered a separate accounting entity. The operations of each fund are accounted for with a
separate set of self-balancing accounts that comprise its assets, liabilities, fund equity, revenues, and
expenditures. Western’s resources are allocated and accounted for in individual funds, based upon the
purpose for which they are to be spent and the means by which spending activities are controlled. See
page 19 for a detailed description of these funds.
BASIS OF ACCOUNTING
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenditures or expenses are recognized in the accounts
and reported in the financial statements. Basis of accounting relates to the timing of the measurement
made, regardless of the measurement focus applied.
The governmental, expendable trust and agency funds are accounted for on a modified accrual basis.
Under the modified accrual basis of accounting, transactions are recorded in the following manner:
Revenues are recognized when they become both measurable and available (susceptible to
accrual). All revenues are considered susceptible to accrual except summer school tuition and
fees and the portion of the local tax levy not due until after June 30, which are recorded as
deferred revenue.
Expenditures are recognized when the liability is incurred, except for interest and principal on
general long-term obligation debt, which are recognized as expenditures when due. Expenditures
for claims and judgments are recognized when it becomes probable that an asset has been
impaired or a liability has been incurred.
Expenditures for compensated absences, including vacation and sick leave, are recognized when
the liability is incurred.
Fixed assets are recorded as capital outlays at the time of purchase.
Proceeds of long-term obligations are treated as a financing source when received.
The proprietary funds are accounted for on an accrual basis, whereby revenues are recognized when
measurable and earned and expenses are recorded as liabilities when incurred and, where applicable,
depreciation expense is also included.
The Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Statement No. 20 “Accounting and Financial
Reporting for Proprietary Funds and Other Governmental Entities that use Proprietary Fund Accounting"
provides that proprietary funds may apply all GASB pronouncements as well as the following
pronouncements issued on or before November 30,1989, unless those pronouncements conflict with or
contradict GASB pronouncements: Statements and interpretations of The Financial Accounting Standards
Board (FASB), Accounting Principles Board (APB) Opinions, and Accounting Research Bulletins
(ARB's) on the Committee on Accounting Procedure. Western Technical College has elected to apply
only FASB, APB, and ARB materials issued on or before November 30, 1989.
For financial statement reporting purposes, Western has adopted the standards in GASB 34. The most
significant difference between financial reporting and budgetary reporting is the elimination of funds in
the financial reporting and the reporting of all activity in one combined set of numbers in budgetary
reporting. For financial reporting purposes, full accrual is used.
