Sinclair board approves new budget
The Sinclair Community College board of trustees approved an operating budget on Wednesday, July 1. The $117 million annual budget meets the growing educational needs of the community while constraining expenses, according to college officials.
Recognizing Sinclair’s 15 percent enrollment growth for the year, as well as significant state budget challenges, the board adopted a restrained budget that results in a net increase in full-time personnel costs of only 0.4 percent, according to a media release.
Additionally, the board approved $2.2 million in special scholarship and student support for the coming year to further ease student economic issues. The board also initiated a new rainy day fund for use in what could be prolonged state economic strife.
“We know that more and more citizens are turning to us for help as they retool in this transitional economy, and we know that our employees are being asked to do much more to serve this increasing number of students with fewer resources,” said Kathy Hollingsworth, Sinclair board chair.
Employees were awarded a 1 percent across-the-board salary increase, according to the release.

I certainly hope the Sinclair Board doesn’t plan on putting another property tax levy on the ballot for Montgomery County. It’s ridiculous for Montgomery County residents to pay for people to go to college with their property taxes.

They just passed a levy. Have heard of no plans for another one. Why is a levy ridiculous? Aside from WFAB and LexisNexis, SCC is one of the only places keeping this area afloat. I bet if Sinclair failed, your property would be worth much less than it’s worth now.
