*Note- The District uses a "MULTI-PRONGED APPROACH" to Budget Cuts.
Proposed Budget Cuts were based on the passage or failure of Prop 30. If Prop 30 passed CUSD would need to cut $30 million - if Prop 30 failed CUSD would need to cut $51 million. This approach assumes that cuts start with unilateral cuts to non-negotiated items and then only looks to negotiated cuts from employee groups if needed. This is a fundamentally flawed approach to to addressing CUSD's budget shortfalls. Everything ("unilateral reductions" and "negotiated concessions") should be on the table together. To force unilateral cuts first then back into negotiated cuts as a last resort, has resulted in a disproportionate amount of cuts to core education programs while shielding the 90+% of the budget that goes to employee compensation from the bulk of cuts CUSD has faced the past five years.
This can be illustrated by looking at the 2012- 2013 Collective Bargaining Agreements and the corresponding 2012-2013 Budget that was adopted June 27, 2013.
Source: The Community Budget Forum June 7, 2013 laid out the tools CUSD had to make $30 - $50 million in cuts (Depending on the passage or failure of Prop 30).
Unilateral- Non-Negotiated Reductions = $11 million

Total Identified Cuts $51 million
* When Prop 30 passed CUSD only needed to implement $30 million of the $51 million in identified cuts. CUSD chose not to implement the $19.8 million in identified Salary Rollbacks- preserving employee salaries. The Salary Rollbacks were never implemented. Knowing this now- go back and read CUSD's intentionally misleading press- release: http://capousd.ca.schoolloop.com/groups/news_item?d=x&id=1338041182074&group_id=1218998864154&return...
2013-2014 Reductions $20.8 million
By delaying contract negotiations CUSD paid employees $5.622 million in salary restorations then started the process of identifying $13,381,000 in budget cuts for 2013-2014- our current school year.
The result- Protected Salaries- Pensions- Benefits.
- 3 Furlough Days for Students.
- Deferred Maintenance
- The Largest Class SIzes in the Nation
*NOTE: This final restoration of salaries made employees "whole". CUSD students will never have their furlough days or lost instructional time due to the teachers strike restored.
Jerry Brown's new LCFF gives Districts much more flexibility in how to spend "NEW" funds, but requires Districts to include the Public in how money is to be spend. CUSD's "New" Local Control Accountability Plan limits Public in-put regarding how money should be spent to a written letter to the Superintendent- (no oral communication with Trustees- the public's elected representatives). So Public in-put will be in a letter to a superintendent that is no longer there. Money will be budgeted next year as it was this- to benefit employees while students and tax payer take all the cuts.
