Current through Register 2024 Notice Reg. No. 28, July 12, 2024
(a)
					 District growth rates for the 2006-07, 2007-08 and the 2008-09 fiscal years
					 shall be determined based upon the regulations and processes in effect as of
					 September 30, 2006, except that by August 31, 2008, the Chancellor shall notify
					 districts of revised growth rates which are adjusted proportionately to reflect
					 the amount of growth funding provided in the 2008-09 Budget Act.
(b) Commencing with the 2009-10 fiscal year,
					 district "growth rates" shall be determined by the Chancellor based on, at a
					 minimum, the sum of the following factors:
(1)
					 Determination of an equally weighted average rate of change in the primary
					 county population of persons between the ages of 19 and 24 and the rate of
					 change in the primary county population of persons between the ages of 25 and
					 65, both as determined by the Department of Finance's Demographic Research Unit
					 as determined for the preceding fiscal year.
(2) To the extent a college district's
					 primary county unemployment rate exceeds 5 percent for the most recently
					 completed year, an adjustment based on that positive difference shall be added
					 to the rate computed in paragraph (1). In no event shall that positive
					 difference used in calculating this adjustment exceed 2 percent.
(3) The Chancellor may also add to these
					 amounts the number of FTES in the areas of transfer, career technical
					 education, and basic skills that were unfunded in the current fiscal year. For
					 this purpose, the following computation shall be determined for each district,
					 and a statewide total shall be calculated:
(A)
					 Establish the base level of FTES earned in the prior fiscal year for transfer
					 courses consisting of courses meeting the California State University breadth
					 or Intersegmental General Education Transfer Curriculum requirements or major
					 course prerequisites accepted by the University of California or the California
					 State University.
(B) Establish the
					 base level of FTES earned in the prior fiscal year for career technical
					 education courses consisting of courses defined by the Chancellor's office
					 Student Accountability Model codes A and B that are consistent with the courses
					 used for measuring success in this program area under the accountability system
					 established pursuant to Education Code section
					 84754.5.
(C) Establish the base level of FTES in the
					 prior fiscal year for basic skills courses, both credit and
					 noncredit.
(D) Add the sum of FTES
					 for paragraphs (A) to (C), inclusive.
(E) Multiply the result of the calculation
					 made under paragraph (D) by one plus the district's funded growth rate in the
					 current fiscal year. This figure shall represent the maintenance of effort
					 level for the budget year.
(F) FTES
					 in transfer, career technical education, and basic skills that are in excess of
					 the total calculated pursuant to paragraph (E), shall be considered in excess
					 of the maintenance of effort level, and shall be eligible for overcap growth
					 funding if the district exceeds its overall funded FTES.
(G) In no event shall the amount calculated
					 pursuant to paragraph (F) exceed the total unfunded FTES for that fiscal
					 year.
