These changes encompass the 2009-2013 planning period. Attached you will find the State Regents' instructional memo, timeline and report form to return upon completion of the electronic updates. Please let me know if you have any questions. The due date for changes is June 8, 2007. Please remember to incorporate your board's approval process prior to the June deadline. Also, please review the email below with Tim Martin's suggestions and instructions. You must rank your projects in priority order with only one number assigned to a project. -----Original Message----- From: Tim Martin [mailto:tmartin at oksba.org] Subject: Capital Budget, FY 2009-2013 Subject: Capital Budgeting, Fiscal Years 2009-2013 To those involved with Capital Budgeting: If this message has been incorrectly sent to you, please forward the message to the person or persons in your organization who have responsibility for capital budgeting. I would appreciate being informed of any corrections to our Capital Budget contact list, including names, telephone numbers and email addresses. The web-based Capital Budget System is ready for your input for the Fiscal Years 2009-2013. You will find information about the Long-Range Capital Planning Commission, and their annual Capital Improvements Plan, on the State Bond Advisor's web site, http://www.ok-bonds.state.ok.us. System requirements and other general information about the Capital Budget System may be found at http://www.osf.ok.gov/brstart.html. Specific screen-by-screen instructions start at http://www.ok-bonds.state.ok.us/inst1. If you do not anticipate acquiring any capital projects during the fiscal years 2009-2013, please send me a short memo or email confirming that fact. Please give extra attention to the following aspects of your Capital Budget: * Definition - The Long-Range Capital Planning Commission (the "Commission") considers capital projects as those with a useful life of at least five (5) years and a cost of at least $25,000. Any capital items that are typically purchased in quantities that meet these criteria should be submitted for review. * Priority - You should have only one #1 (highest) priority project, one #2, etc. Order all your projects on a priority basis. * Funding - Do not list General Obligation (GO) Bonds as a source of funding. There are no GO Bonds currently authorized for future projects. Please provide details concerning all your funding sources. If you are planning some type of revenue bond financing, indicate the source of security (revenue source) and the authorization. * Description and Justification - Describe your projects in detail. Although the system asks for both these items in one entry of a single screen, they are each distinct aspects of your projects. * Fiscal Impact - Many users ignore this area of the capital budgeting process. The Long-Range Capital Planning Commission, your management and Oklahoma's governmental leadership need to know the operating costs and/or savings associated with your projects, if they are to make sound decisions concerning the approval and funding of your projects. * Rating Criteria and Scales ("scoring" your project) - Review the "Rating Criteria and Scales" guidance included with this memorandum. If a project does not require new State appropriations (i.e., the project is "self-funded"), you do not need to complete this section. Otherwise, please take care in completing the section. For example, if you have five projects, the highest priority project (your #1) would have a raw score of "5" in this section; #2 would have a raw score of "4", and so on. All five projects should not have a raw score of "5". Rate your projects objectively. * Timing - Please make every reasonable effort to complete your input to the Capital Budget System by July 1. The Commission has deadlines it must meet and needs time to review the projects. A July 1 date should provide ample time to review any legislation from the most recent legislative session to determine any impact on your capital budget. Once you have completed your input, please change the status of your budget to "Complete" (Note that The State Regents for Higher Education have an earlier deadline for member campuses and will effect the capital budget closing process for those campuses once the State Regents have completed their review and processing.) If you see that you may not meet the July 1 deadline, please contact me. * Consistency - If there is legislation pending or planned which provides financing for one or more of your projects, please make sure that the projects are reflected in your capital budget and that any description in your budget matches the description in the legislation. Because the Capital Budget System has been in place several years, there are no group training/refresher sessions scheduled. If you need assistance in using the system, please contact me. If there are several users needing assistance, I will attempt to schedule a group session if I am not able to respond adequately on an individual basis.
