Dear Honorable Members of the Board of Legislators:

Submitted for your approval is the 2013-14 Operating and Capital budget for Westchester Community College.

While our economy is still fragile, it is slowly showing signs of recovery. This proposed budgetrepresents a continued collaboration with school officials. It provides the College with thenecessary financial support needed to fulfill its academic mission while balancing the schoolsneeds against those of taxpayers and other county departments, which must also continue todeliver essential services.

The 2013-14 proposed County Sponsor Contribution is $28.7 million.

The Colleges Capital Budget includes $1.1 million for two projects. The first is a multi-year Planning Studies proposal that funds planning assessment and infrastructure needs. The other

project is for the replacement of roofs on various buildings throughout the campus that areapproaching the end of their useful life.

This proposed budget allows the College to continue in its role as a premiere educationalinstitution, while keeping tuition flat in order to minimize the financial burden on the taxpayersof Westchester and the students of the College.

Respectfully submitted,

Robert P. AstorinoCounty Executive
