Dear Vice Chancellor Skinner:
In July 2012, the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office (CCCCO) and the Fiscal Crisis
and Management Assistance Team (FCMAT) entered into an agreement for FCMAT to provide a
fiscal review of the San Francisco Community College District (commonly known as City College of
San Francisco) on behalf of the CCCCO. Specifically, the agreement states that FCMAT will perform
the following:
1. In accordance with Education Code Section 84041 (a) and (c), the City College
of San Francisco may request the Team, pursuant to Education Code Section
42127.8, to assist the district to establish and maintain sound financial and
budgetary conditions that comply with principles of sound fiscal management and
include the following:
a. Complete a fiscal health analysis of the district using the California
Community Colleges Sound Fiscal Management Self-Assessment Checklist to
determine the district’s current level of financial risk.
b. Work with the College to develop a multi-year financial projection for the
current and two subsequent years without any demonstrated adjustments
based on today’s economic forecast to determine the level of commitment
needed to sustain the College’s financial solvency, recognizing that this will
be a snapshot in time regarding the current financial situation and used as the
baseline for determining the level of reductions.
c. Determine up to four California community colleges to be used for bench-
mark comparisons.

d. Provide findings and recommendations for meeting the district’s goals. Work
with the College to incorporate into a multi-year projection.
e. Based on benchmark colleges and CCSF’s program priorities, review critical
cost variances, including:
1. Review revenue per FTES/cost per FTE, separated by credit and non-
credit.
2. Review the faculty obligation and the amount of reassigned time appro-
priate for the enrollment, structure, and budget of the College.
3. Compare managerial positions as reported to IPEDS, and determine
whether administration is organized effectively and if the staffing levels
are appropriate.
4. Determine the costs and program impacts of off-site centers and sites.
5. Review the costs of benefits for active employees compared to those of
other colleges.
6. Evaluate the college for comparative analysis in terms of 50% law
margins.
7. Review the unrestricted general fund match for categorical programs and
levels of encroachment, if any.
8. Review FTES and determine if the college is maximizing its opportuni-
ties to generate additional funding.
2. The second component of the fiscal review will be to identify recommendations
that enable the College to sustain financial solvency and maintain recommended
reserve levels. The objective of this component will be to prepare and present a
comprehensive report and recommendations covering the following issues:
a. Financial modeling that illustrates options that CCSF can implement to
reduce various expenses and/or increase revenue to balance the budget and
sustain financial solvency.
b. Identify institutional restrictions such as past practices or services that have
been identified as the “CCSF culture” of the College including but not
limited to collective bargaining contracts, legal constraints including the
50% law and the Full Time Faculty Obligation (FON).
c. Develop implementation steps, including a proposed timeline for improve-
ments.
This final report contains the study team’s findings and recommendations.
FCMAT appreciates the opportunity to serve you and extends thanks to all the staff of the
California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office and the San Francisco Community College
District for their cooperation and assistance during fieldwork.
Sincerely,
Michelle Plumbtree Joel. D. Montero

About FCMAT
FCMAT’s primary mission is to assist California’s local K-14 educational agencies to identify,
prevent, and resolve financial and data management challenges. FCMAT provides fiscal and
data management assistance, professional development training, product development and other
related school business and data services. FCMAT’s fiscal and management assistance services
are used not just to help avert fiscal crisis, but to promote sound financial practices and efficient
operations. FCMAT’s data management services are used to help local educational agencies
(LEAs) meet state reporting responsibilities, improve data quality, and share information.
FCMAT may be requested to provide fiscal crisis or management assistance by a school district,
charter school, community college, county office of education, the state Superintendent of Public
Instruction, or the Legislature.
When a request or assignment is received, FCMAT assembles a study team that works closely
with the local education agency to define the scope of work, conduct on-site fieldwork and
provide a written report with findings and recommendations to help resolve issues, overcome
challenges and plan for the future.

FCMAT also develops and provides numerous publications, software tools, workshops and
professional development opportunities to help local educational agencies operate more effec-
tively and fulfill their fiscal oversight and data management responsibilities. The California
School Information Services (CSIS) arm of FCMAT assists the California Department of
Education with the implementation of the California Longitudinal Pupil Achievement Data
System (CALPADS) and also maintains DataGate, the FCMAT/CSIS software LEAs use for
CSIS services. FCMAT was created by Assembly Bill 1200 in 1992 to assist LEAs to meet and
sustain their financial obligations. Assembly Bill 107 in 1997 charged FCMAT with responsi-
bility for CSIS and its statewide data management work. Assembly Bill 1115 in 1999 codified
CSIS’ mission.
AB 1200 is also a statewide plan for county office of education and school districts to work
together locally to improve fiscal procedures and accountability standards. Assembly Bill 2756
(2004) provides specific responsibilities to FCMAT with regard to districts that have received
emergency state loans.

In January 2006, SB 430 (charter schools) and AB 1366 (community colleges) became law and
expanded FCMAT’s services to those types of LEAs.
Since 1992, FCMAT has been engaged to perform nearly 850 reviews for LEAs, including school
districts, county offices of education, charter schools and community colleges. The Kern County
Superintendent of Schools is the administrative agent for FCMAT. The team is led by Joel D.
Montero, Chief Executive Officer, with funding derived through appropriations in the state
budget and a modest fee schedule for charges to requesting agencies.

Introduction
Background and Study Scope
The San Francisco Community College District serves approximately 100,000 students at nine
campuses and many other sites throughout the city of San Francisco.
FCMAT’s review of CCSF was not an audit; the purpose was to review and evaluate the
approach of the San Francisco Community College District (commonly known as the City
College of San Francisco, or CCSF) to projecting and allocating its fiscal resources and to
determine if CCSF’s budget assumptions and methods are reasonable. FCMAT was also asked
to evaluate CCSF’s fiscal health and provide recommendations to help CCSF maintain fiscal
solvency. This report reflects these goals and the objectives included in the approved scope of
work.
Prior to the FCMAT review, the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior Colleges
(ACCJC) visited CCSF in March of 2012 and officially delivered an order of show cause. This
is the most severe sanction of the ACCJC short of terminating an institution’s accreditation.
Both the results of that report and the process for accreditation are separate and distinct from the
review performed by the FCMAT team.
As is the case with many California community colleges, CCSF has had declining state revenue
for a number of years. As one of California’s largest providers of noncredit education, the college’s
fiscal health has been further challenged by the state’s ongoing low level of funding for noncredit
instruction. CCSF is facing financial difficulties, as evidenced by its declining fund balance and
continued large operating deficits. This has brought CCSF to a point at which it must either
make significant and ongoing budget adjustments or face the prospect of insolvency and possible
state intervention.
If the California community college board of governors determines that CCSF is not able to
maintain its fiscal solvency under the current budget, the board of governors has the authority
to appoint a special trustee to manage CCSF and restore fiscal solvency. CCSF can also request a
special trustee, which has also been considered.
If the board of governors makes the determination to appoint a state trustee, the special trustee
could be authorized to assume control of all facets of operations and management for the period
of time deemed necessary for CCSF to achieve fiscal stability or to implement sound fiscal
management. The board of governors may reduce or withhold apportionment to pay for the cost
of the special trustee, management review, or other extraordinary costs resulting from CCSF’s
fiscal difficulties and to ensure the stabilization of the district’s financial condition.
To understand CCSF’s current fiscal status, FCMAT explored a number of topics with staff.
In some instances CCSF has already begun to proactively address budget issues that FCMAT
identified; however, more action will be needed to avert fiscal insolvency. Moreover, significant
additional analysis should be performed beyond this current scope of work but was not possible
due to the time constraints associated with this engagement.
The topics and issues identified in discussions with CCSF staff include the following:
• Evaluation of the revenues versus the costs of off-site instructional operations.
• Previous budget savings actions and those anticipated for fiscal year 2012-13.

introduction
• Employee contracts, specifically identification of items that committed CCSF to added
costs and limited its decision-making ability.
• CCSF’s faculty obligation number (FON) in light of CCSF’s actual full-time equivalent
faculty.
• The calculation and related components used for compliance with the 50% law (which
requires that half of each community college district’s current expense of education be
spent on classroom salaries and benefits).
• Class sizes, classroom productivity, creation of the class schedule, and number of full-
time equivalent students (FTES) as a component of enrollment management.
• Support from the unrestricted general fund for categorical programs and auxiliary
operations such as the bookstore and food services.
• Grants that anticipated CCSF continuing the program after the grant expired.
• Bond program costs that may be masking future general fund obligations.
• The costs and functions of faculty release time.
• Retiree health benefits program.
• Budget assumptions being considered for fiscal year 2012-13.
• Data tools, processes and procedures used to guide major decisions.
• Identification of five other community college districts against which CCSF would be
compared in the areas of expenditures, 50% law, and staffing levels across all employment
classifications.
• CCSF’s financial and expenditure history over the last seven years.
• Recent external financial statement audits to identify any major fiscal issues and audit
findings.
• CCSF’s recent accreditation report.
• Health benefit programs.
• The administrative structure and the organizational history.
• CCSF’s response to the state community college chancellor’s office’s fiscal management
checklist.
Some of the above topics needed no additional comment beyond the initial discussion. The
balance of this report includes findings and recommendations in those areas that require further
attention.
FCMAT visited CCSF on July 30 through August 3, 2012 to conduct interviews, collect data
and review documents. This report is the result of those activities.
During this fieldwork, FCMAT also identified additional issues that required further research
and analysis. These are noted throughout the report.
The scope of FCMAT’s review included both a fiscal review and analysis and a benchmark
comparison of CCSF against similar community college districts to provide data to help the
college make decisions to sustain financial solvency and maintain recommended reserve levels.

Executive Summary
FCMAT’s review of CCSF is not intended to be viewed as a comprehensive audit. The scope
of work was conducted to determine how CCSF projects and allocates its fiscal resources and
to determine if CCSF’s budget assumptions and methods were reasonable. The review and
assessment includes recommendations to help CCSF maintain its fiscal solvency and avoid state
intervention.
Prior to FCMAT’s review in July, the Accrediting Commission for Community and Junior
Colleges (ACCJC) visited CCSF in March of 2012 and officially delivered an order of show
cause. This is the most severe sanction of the ACCJC short of terminating an institution’s
accreditation. Show cause occurs when the ACCJC finds an institution in substantial noncompli-
ance with the commission’s eligibility requirements, accreditation standards or policies, or when
the institution has not responded to the condition previously imposed by ACCJC.
The ACCJC conducted its own independent review to determine accreditation status for CCSF,
and results of that report are separate and distinct from the assessment performed by the FCMAT
team.
Fiscal Health Analysis
City College of San Francisco (CCSF) has not developed a plan to fund significant liabilities and
obligations such as retiree health benefits, adequate reserves, and workers’ compensation costs.
Further, it has been subsidizing categorical programs with unrestricted general fund monies
regardless of the effect on the general fund, and has provided salary increases and generous bene-
fits with no discernible means to pay for them. The college has also used temporary one-time
measures to mitigate its operating deficits, thus deferring difficult decisions to the future. These
deficiencies raise significant concerns regarding CCSF’s ability to maintain solvency because of
the unknown outcomes of an upcoming local parcel tax measure and the governor’s November
2012 state tax measure referred to as Proposition 30.
Multiyear Financial Projection
CCSF’s 2012-13 tentative budget is balanced in terms of anticipated revenues and expenditures,
but it assumes and depends on passage of the governor’s November 2012 tax measure. Most
of the expenditure savings in the tentative budget are one-time concessions from the employee
groups for 2012-13 only, which means that CCSF will again need to make reductions for 2013-
14. Even with the passage of the governor’s tax measure, CCSF projects a $13 million shortfall in
fiscal year 2013-14. CCSF cannot afford to wait and see if the local parcel tax is approved before
implementing expenditure reductions. To maintain financial solvency, reductions for 2013-14
and beyond must be ongoing rather than temporary.
CCSF’s 2012-13 tentative budget does not increase the fund balance. Although the budget
recognizes the possibility of a small state funding deficit of 0.7%, in today’s economic climate
it is likely that the deficit could be higher, which will further reduce the fund balance. CCSF’s
minimal ending fund balance leaves no margin for error or unexpected changes to the budget;
either could result in fiscal insolvency.
The below table summarize the four possible scenarios prepared by CCSF staff for fiscal year
2012-13. These scenarios vary based on whether the different tax measures pass.

Fiscal Year 2012-13 Funding Scenarios

(Deficit)/Surplus ($11,479,000) $727,000 $3,247,000 $14,492,000
Key assumption: CCSF continues spending at the level of the tentative budget under all scenarios.
There is a possibility that the governor’s tax measure will not pass. Although CCSF has estimated
that this would reduce funding by another $11.5 million in fiscal year 2012-13 and beyond, it
has not developed a plan to deal with this reduction should it occur, and its ending fund balance
is not sufficient to bear the burden.
CCSF is in a perilous financial position. It can afford neither errors in its budget assumptions or
accounting treatments nor additional unbudgeted expenses. Even if CCSF is able to maintain
its fiscal solvency in fiscal year 2012-13 using the temporary measures it has enacted, it will
experience numerous challenging, spending pressures and critical decisions in the future. The
four multiyear financial projections (MYFPs) developed by CCSF indicate future insolvency in
all scenarios except for the one in which both the governor’s tax measure and the local parcel tax
pass, and even then CCSF would remain only marginally solvent. The below table summarizes
the effect on fund balance under all four funding scenarios. Even under the best alternative,
where both the state and local tax pass, by fiscal year 2014-15 a deficit of $2,512,000 occurs
based on current revenue and expenditure trends.

2014-15 ($27,809,000) ($16,493,000) ($13,809,000) ($2,512,000)
Staffing and Operational Costs
CCSF has employed twice as many full-time faculty per 1,000 full-time equivalent students
(FTES) and incurred expenses that are $17 to $18 million higher than comparison districts,
while at the same time having a level of classroom productivity (class size) that is less than that
of most of the comparison districts. CCSF also employs more classified staff at higher average
salaries than the comparison districts.
CCSF’s capital outlay budgets will need to be restored as bond funds dwindle. Retiree health
benefits payments will increase from an estimated $6.9 million in fiscal year 2011-12 to $13.0
million annually by 2020-21. Steps added to the classified salary schedule during negotiations
will also add significant costs over time. The magnitude of its employee contract obligations
makes it difficult for CCSF to continue as a going concern (an organization that is fiscally
healthy and able to meet its financial obligations) without change.
CCSF needs to be more aggressive in reducing its expenditures to provide for a structurally
balanced budget by implementing ongoing budget adjustments and reductions. This is chal-
lenging but is essential to avoid insolvency.

executive summary
CCSF’s expenditure per full-time equivalent student (FTES) exceeded its state funding (also
known as state apportionment revenues) for fiscal year 2011-12 by $637 per noncredit instruc-
tion FTES and by $859 per credit instruction FTES. Thus these amounts had to be provided
from other funding sources. Based on a revenue and cost analysis, there is no clear evidence that
either credit or noncredit is significantly more efficient than the other. The noncredit funding
rate is lower, but costs are lower as well. This is largely due to the difference in teaching load:
15 contact hours per week for credit courses versus 25 contact hours per week in the noncredit
program. On a proportional revenue and expense basis, the efficiency of credit and noncredit
instruction is nearly equal; apportionment revenue pays for 85.34% of the costs associated with
credit courses and 83.99% of the revenue required to support noncredit courses.
CCSF’s estimated average rate of pay for a part-time instructor is $113.51 per hour. Based on
this rate, the estimated annual cost of one part-time faculty who works the equivalent of full time
(one FTEF) is $59,595, or approximately $6,000 per course. FCMAT confirmed these pay rates
through information provided by district staff and a review of financial records for fiscal year
2010-11 (the most recent year for which there is certified data) that indicate the total hourly pay
in relation to total part-time faculty FTEF. Statutory benefits such as workers’ compensation,
unemployment insurance and retirement contributions add 6.6 % to this total. In addition, if
a part-time faculty member’s teaching assignment is equal to or greater than 50% (7.5 units for
credit and 12.5 units for noncredit) of a full-time load, the employee is eligible for health benefits
partially paid by CCSF and for fully paid dental benefits.
CCSF’s part-time faculty salary schedule and health benefit provisions in its collective bargaining
agreement with the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) Local 2121 have negated any signifi-
cant short-term cost advantage of using part-time faculty. The lower costs associated with part-
time faculty have typically allowed community college districts to maintain their class schedules
and offerings at a lower cost, but this is not the case at CCSF.
Through the California Community College Chancellor’s Office’s (CCCCO’s) management
information system (MIS), CCSF reported having 842 tenure-track faculty in 2010-11. When
all faculty release time is considered, 14% of CCSF’s full-time faculty are being released to fulfill
nonteaching responsibilities. Thus the equivalent of more than 50 full-time, highly qualified,
tenured faculty are serving as department chairs rather than instructing students.
The proliferation of release time is costly, creates a unique administrative structure that is difficult
to manage, reduces accountability, and makes coordination and decision-making more chal-
lenging.
Comparison with Similar Districts
To provide additional context to the analysis of CCSF’s fiscal condition, five similar community
college districts were selected against which CCSF would be compared in terms of spending,
staffing and productivity. The selected districts are Santa Monica, Long Beach, Foothill-De Anza,
Mt. San Antonio and El Camino. The comparison revealed many important distinctions that
CCSF should consider as it makes future decisions:
• CCSF has significantly more regular full-time equivalent (FTE) employees than the
comparison districts, both in total and per FTES.
• CCSF has almost twice the number of tenured faculty as the two largest comparison
districts, with 23.52 FTE per 1,000 FTES versus 13.69 and 12.17 for Mt. San Antonio
and Santa Monica, respectively.
California Community Colleges ChanCellor’s offiCe — City College of san franCisCo
8
executive summary
• CCSF also has significantly more classified staff support than the two largest comparison
districts, with 192 more FTE staff than Mt. San Antonio and 243 more FTE staff than
Santa Monica.
• CCSF is the third lowest of the comparison districts in productivity for credit classes
(FTES per section average). CCSF has both more tenured faculty and lower productivity,
which compounds its fiscal burden.
The results of this data support the findings of the staffing analysis. CCSF’s decisions regarding
full-time faculty and increases to the salary schedule and benefit provisions for part-time faculty
result in higher costs for academic employees, which in turn result in higher total salaries and
benefits and higher total costs.
Enrollment Management
CCSF shows little evidence of an effective enrollment management plan. It lacks sufficient data
provided in a timely and consistent reporting format to make important enrollment management
decisions. Serving students when resources are reduced requires maximizing the use and effect of
all available resources, but this is not possible without an effective enrollment management plan.
CCSF’s enrollment management has focused on student recruitment and marketing, student
engagement and connection, technology (distance education), counseling and support.
Enrollment management must also focus on enrollment goals for campuses and sites, programs
and disciplines; the deployment of resources to achieve those goals; and measurement of progress.
Enrollment management will be an important tool as CCSF plans course schedules, seeks to
control direct costs, and measures progress toward FTES goals. Because revenue is largely driven
by service level (FTES), it is imperative that CCSF manage this aspect of its operations effec-
tively.
Administrative Structure
The use of some release time is normal in the community college system; however, the magnitude
and types of release time assignments at CCSF are cause for concern. CCSF allows an inordinate
amount of release time, which is expensive because of CCSF’s high salary and benefits for the
part-time employees who replace full-time employees when they are on release time. A significant
part of this release time is for department chairs; other instructional and noninstructional release
time makes up the balance. The structure and responsibilities of department chairs at CCSF
differ significantly from what is typical at most California community colleges. Specifically, the
department chairs at CCSF operate under a separate collective bargaining agreement and have
responsibility for decisions about program and course offerings as well as control over release
time assignments.
Barriers to Fiscal Solvency
Administrative stability is needed at CCSF. Four of its five vice chancellor positions are interim;
the vice chancellor for finance and administration is the only administrative position with history
in the district. The chancellor is also an interim assignment.
Interviews revealed that decisions that have serious financial implications are often made but that
no one position is accountable for those decisions. Ultimately the governing board and the chan-
cellor must provide leadership and serve as the final authority for important decisions. Fixing the
immediate budget problem is imperative, but both the immediate remedy and sustained change
depend on recognizing and addressing factors that contribute to poor decisions and a lack of
accountability.
Fiscal crisis & ManageMent assistance teaM

executive summary
The costs of employee contracts have increased through a succession of chancellors. A number of
the contract provisions have been added without any consideration of CCSF’s ability to pay in
the future. As a result, CCSF is facing potential insolvency, which could significantly affect the
organization or require state intervention
The civil service structure under which CCSF operates is the same as that of the City of San
Francisco and is established and maintained in accord with Education Code section 88137.
This has both benefits and drawbacks. CCSF is the only community college in California that
operates under this structure, which can make creating and managing the classified workforce
difficult, especially in times of fiscal crisis, because CCSF often does not have control over who is
placed in positions.
Interviewees consistently indicated that CCSF has for many years operated based on power,
influence and political whim rather than reason, logic and fairness. Interviewees indicated
that CCSF’s focus and purpose, which should be serving students, has been lost and is not the
basis for decision making. Rather, the emphasis has been on keeping individuals employed and
ensuring that they receive benefits, which is a positive goal but should not usurp any college
district’s primary goal of serving students. CCSF’s decisions have diminished the resources avail-
able to achieve its primary purpose.
Past decisions have reduced the management team to spectators rather than organizational
leaders. For example, determining how many classified employees are needed and what services
are required should be a management function, but at CCSF these decisions are made by a
committee. This has been costly to CCSF.
Under this organizational and cultural model there is no responsibility or accountability because
it is often unclear how or by whom decisions have been made. This has resulted in operational
dysfunction, which in turn has contributed to fiscal deficiencies.

Findings and Recommendations
Fiscal Health Analysis
Overview
Prior to and separate from FCMAT’s review, the Accrediting Commission for Community
and Junior Colleges (ACCJC) officially issued the San Francisco Community College District
(commonly known as City College of San Francisco, or CCSF) an order of show cause, partly
because of its fiscal status. The Commission is concerned that CCSF is on the brink of insol-
vency.
Show cause occurs when the ACCJC finds an institution in substantial noncompliance with the
commission’s eligibility requirements, accreditation standards or policies, or when the institution
has not responded to the condition previously imposed by ACCJC. In CCSF’s case, CCSF must
show cause regarding why the commission should not withdraw accreditation at its June 2013
meeting by demonstrating that it has corrected the deficiencies noted by the commission and is
in compliance with the eligibility requirements, accreditation standards and commission policies.
Show cause places the burden of proof on CCSF to demonstrate why its accreditation should be
continued.
The ACCJC conducted its own independent review to determine CCSF’S accreditation status.
Both the results of that review and the process for accreditation are separate and distinct from the
review performed by the FCMAT team.
CCSF has unrestricted revenues of approximately $190 million per year. This includes approxi-
mately $15 million in revenues from a local sales tax, a source that most similar college districts
do not have. Even with this significant fiscal advantage, CCSF is experiencing severe financial
difficulty.
Reserve Requirements
For at least the last five years CCSF has operated with a reserve of slightly more than 1%, or
$1.9M, of its unrestricted general fund expenditures. As a general rule, the CCCCO recom-
mends a 5% reserve level. In addition, there has been a fixed $6.6 million board reserve for
several years. In fiscal year 2011-12 CCSF overspent its budgeted expenditures because of faulty
budget assumptions made when the budget was adopted. To balance the budget, anticipated
savings were included in the expense budget as negative line items without identifying any
specific reductions. These reductions did not materialize, so the unrestricted fund balance of 1%
and $3.5 million of the $6.6 million board reserve were needed to balance the budget for fiscal
year 2011-12, leaving CCSF with only $3 million available in the board reserve at the close of
the fiscal year.
According to CCSF, $1.5 million in one-time internal departmental funds has been carried over
from previous years and could be used to augment the $3 million remaining board reserve if the
board so decides. Even if that occurs, the combined funds would comprise a 2.25% total reserve,
which is insufficient in today’s economic climate, especially based on the CCCCO’s 5% recom-
mendation. Based on district information, these are the only remaining sources of emergency
funds.

fiscal health analysis
Salaries and Benefits
It has been noted publicly in various venues that CCSF’s employee salaries and benefits comprise
approximately 92% of its unrestricted budget. Operating expenses such as utilities, supplies,
property and liability insurance, maintenance agreements and capital outlay are paid out of the
remaining 8%. This leaves very little in discretionary funds. Although the 92% figure is true
for the 2012-13 budget, CCSF’s employee costs have historically been closer to 90%, compared
to approximately 86% for most community college districts. Because so much of its budget is
committed to employee costs, resulting in insufficient reserves, CCSF has difficulty responding
to unexpected fiscal obligations. If CCSF continues to maintain a high ratio of employee costs, it
will need a larger unrestricted fund balance to provide for unanticipated fiscal emergencies.
Capital Outlay
Capital outlay spending has only been approximately 0.1% of the budget during the last five
years because local general obligation bonds have provided funds for capital needs during that
time. However, the bond funds will soon be completely depleted, so CCSF will need to start
planning to meet ongoing capital needs and restore capital outlay budgets using its operating
budget.
Unfunded Liabilities
Until recently, CCSF has not set aside funds to address its unfunded liability for retiree health
benefits. The amount CCSF has currently identified to meet this ongoing obligation is $500,000
per year, which is well below the actuarial recommendation. The July 2011 actuarial analysis of
CCSF’s retiree health benefit obligation indicates a present value debt of $235,000,000. CCSF
is meeting its annual payment obligation on a pay-as-you-go basis. For the 2011-12 budget year,
the annual cost is estimated to be $6.9 million, but this will increase to $13.0 million annually
by 2020-21. This cost will continue to increase regardless of CCSF’s revenues or fiscal solvency.
This means that as available revenue decreases, the burden that these retiree costs place on the
expenditure budget will be amplified. Regardless of the economic growth scenario chosen, the
expenditures for pay-as-you-go will increase on a percentage basis faster than increases in revenue.
Encroachment
The amount CCSF has taken from its unrestricted general fund to subsidize categorical and
auxiliary operations has increased from $1.98 million in fiscal year 2008-09 to $6.2 million in
fiscal year 2011-12. CCSF has planned to decrease this amount to $2.95 million in 2012-2013;
however, part of the planned decrease is created by moving the basic skills program from the
restricted general fund to the unrestricted general fund, which changes how the expenditures are
recorded but does not decrease the financial burden.
Workers’ Compensation
Prior to 2009, CCSF paid workers’ compensation expenses on a cash basis. This meant there
was no recognition of accrued or expected liability related to outstanding claims. Because claims
take time to mature and the costs often occur over more than one fiscal year, community college
districts typically use actuarial studies to determine the expected cost of open claims and establish
reserves to pay claims. CCSF has conducted actuarial studies but has not set aside funds to fully
fund future claims obligations. Since 2009, CCSF has assessed an internal premium to programs
and has chosen to address the unfunded claims expense through a 25-year amortization plan.
Fiscal crisis & ManageMent assistance teaM
13
Fiscal HealtH a nalysis
This structure may be sufficient as long as the claims experience and payouts do not exceed the
level of premium assessment.
Staffing
CCSF has not implemented layoffs, closed any sites or eliminated any programs in the past five
years, even with significant decreases in funding. It has replaced some full-time faculty who have
left CCSF rather than always recognizing the opportunity to reduce staffing through attrition.
One-time actions have been the primary method used to address operating deficits, which means
that CCSF must begin anew in its search for fiscal solutions each year to address the ongoing
deficits. Based on CCSF’s multiyear financial projections, it is clear that ongoing budget reduc-
tions are needed rather than temporary or one-time measures to eliminate deficits and restore
fund balances.
CCSF has completed the California Community Colleges Chancellor’s Office’s (CCCCO’s)
Fiscal Health Checklist, which is included below. Based on the self-assessment, CCSF has
recognized a number of areas in which it is deficient. FCMAT has reviewed the document and
agrees with most of CCSF’s statements but differs on some. FCMAT’s comments and opinions
regarding the document are provided in italicized text; all other comments and assessments are
those of CCSF.
CCCCO Sound Fiscal Management Checklist Completed by CCSF
FCMAT’s comments are included in italics.
1. Deficit Spending for fiscal year 2011-12 Not Acceptable
Revenue estimates are based on past history.
Estimate for fiscal year 2011-12 revenues were conservative and within
reason. The “February surprise” created substantial challenges.
Fiscal year 2010-11 was not a deficit spending year; closeout from the UGF
[unrestricted general fund] was more than $3 million. However fiscal year
2011-12 had an unacceptably high level of deficit spending. It was addressed
by using fund balance and one-time spending reductions including wage
concessions.
The district does not automatically build in growth revenue; in fact the
2010-11 closeout was primarily due to the conservative strategy of not
including such revenue in the final budget. Growth is only built in when a
funding strategy to add sections is also incorporated.
2. Fund Balance for fiscal year 2011-12 Not Acceptable
Fund balance declined dramatically during fiscal year 2011-12 as a result of
using the undesignated unreserved balance and a substantial portion of the
designated reserve to support operations.
3. Enrollment Not Acceptable
District has had to make use of stabilization funding due to lack of funds for
summer sessions.
California Community Colleges ChanCellor’s offiCe — City College of san franCisCo
14
fiscal health analysis
Demand in Credit remains strong, declining in Non Credit. Data is tracked
and analyzed and strategies are developed to meet enrollment targets.
However, the college was in stability in both 2011-12 and 2009-10 due to
lack of ability to fund summer session.
4. Unrestricted General Fund (UGF) Balance Not acceptable
Fund balance includes a long-term prepaid lease for the Mission Campus,
currently valued at about $10 million. The portion of fund balance that is
available to be used for emergencies is less than 5% of annual unrestricted
general fund expenditures.
5. Cash Flow Borrowing Not Acceptable
Tax revenue anticipation notes (TRANs) are repaid on time. The college also
borrows from the City/County of San Francisco. The college has a negative
cash position too often.
6. Bargaining Agreements Acceptable
Per the criteria this is acceptable as there have been no across-the-board
salary increases for any employee group since July 2007. In the past five
years the only negotiated changes have been in the areas of health insurance
contributions made by certificated employees and a seniority step increase
for some classified employees. Several years ago the college’s contract with the
American Federation of Teachers (AFT) allocated a portion of new revenue
to faculty based on a formula. Service Employees International Union (SEIU)
contracts were based on traditional bargaining. Cost analyses were always
conducted; wage increases were budgeted.
Although CCSF’s statements are correct, FCMAT believes that CCSF’s
contracts are not sustainable given the district’s financial condition.
Evidence of this is that salaries and benefits consume 92% of the budget.
Thus FCMAT would rate this item as Not Acceptable.
7. Unrestricted General Fund Staffing Not Acceptable
Deficit spending was incurred in 2011-12; one-time funds were used to
support ongoing expenses. The percentage of the unrestricted general fund
spent for personnel expenses is greater than 85%. The college is not providing
adequate funds for scheduled maintenance or for upgrading technology.
8. Internal Controls Acceptable
Internal controls are adequate and are evaluated by both independent audi-
tors and an internal auditor. Loss of assets over the years has been negligible.
Fiscal crisis & ManageMent assistance teaM
15
Fiscal HealtH a nalysis
9. Management Information Systems (MIS) Acceptable,
but some reports are late
The college has a task force that makes an ongoing effort to ensure that
data is accurate for the state MIS report. In addition, the program review
committee works to ensure that data used for such purposes is accurate. The
business office completes all required reports but the college has filed its
annual audit and 311 reports after the state deadline in several years. This
issue can only be addressed by improving available resources
10. Position Control Acceptable
as of fall 2012
Position control for classified employees is fine. For certificated employees
the college has had an ongoing problem with assignment forms not reaching
payroll in a timely manner. This is currently being addressed by the office of
instruction. Position control is integrated with payroll but not budget.
As noted later in this report, there are concerns regarding CCSF’s inability
to link position control to budget, which is a critical function to recon-
cile salary and benefit costs. Thus FCMAT would rate this item as Not
Acceptable.
11. Budget Monitoring Acceptable,
but budget development needs improvement
Historically bargaining agreements have been evaluated in advance for
budgetary impact. Revenue revisions are timely; expenditures are updated
every pay period. The board is kept informed about changes in budget esti-
mates throughout the year. The district’s only long-term financial obligations
are for other post-employment benefits (OPEB) and workers’ compensation.
There are no other long-term debts. Annual budget development needs
improvement particularly with respect to costs associated with part-time
faculty and health benefits for active employees.
12. Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) Not Acceptable
Actuarial studies have been completed; the results have been widely shared.
The college was strictly pay-as-you-go for this liability until 2011-12 when
for the first time it made a $500,000 transfer into a trust fund established by
the city. This transfer will be repeated in 2012-13. There is no specific plan to
increase these payments.
13. Leadership/Stability Acceptable
The chief executive officer retired in April 2012. The chief business official
(CBO) has been at the college for 20 years. Several board members have
served multiple terms.
California Community Colleges ChanCellor’s offiCe — City College of san franCisCo
16
fiscal health analysis
FCMAT believes that although there is stability in one key position, the
CBO, there is instability in other aspects of the senior administrative
structure. Thus FCMAT would rate this item as Not Acceptable.
14. District Liability Acceptable
There are no active lawsuits that require increased reserves. The college was a
founding member of the Statewide Association of Community Colleges for
property and liability coverage, but switched to the Alliance of Schools for
Cooperative Insurance Programs effective 7/1/12. There are no anticipated
settlements at this time.
15. Reporting Not Acceptable
with respect to timeliness
The college’s annual audit reports have been delivered after January 1 on
several occasions. The quarterly and annual 311 reports have also been late on
multiple occasions. The district has always met the 50% law. The 320 reports
have been timely.
Several external audit recommendations have been repeated in multiple
audits and remain outstanding. CCSF has stated that it is taking steps to
address these recommendations, but it needs to do so more aggressively.
FCMAT rates this as Not Acceptable not only with regard to timeliness,
but also because of these repeated audit findings. FCMAT’s analysis of the
audit findings follows.
Audit Findings
CCSF has made some progress toward resolving outstanding audit findings in annual audited
financial reports for fiscal years 2007-08, 2008-09, 2009-10 and 2010-11. These findings are
items that the external independent auditors determined indicate deficiencies in internal controls
that could result in material misstatements in CCSF’s financial statements. These audit findings
are categorized in terms of severity as either material weaknesses (most severe), significant defi-
ciencies (moderately severe), or deficiencies (least severe).
The tables below provide an overview of the number and type of findings reported in the last
three annual financial audits.
Quantity and Types of Audit Findings
2010-11 2009-10 2008-09
Material Weaknesses 3 4 0
Significant Deficiencies 3 14 17
Deficiencies 7 0 0
Total 13 18 17
As the table above shows, since fiscal year 2008-09 CCSF has reduced the total number of audit
Fiscal crisis & ManageMent assistance teaM
17
Fiscal HealtH a nalysis
findings from 17 to 13, but the number of audit findings classified as material weaknesses has
increased.
This may indicate that there are significant obstacles to timely and accurate reporting of financial
statements going forward. Indeed, the nature of the three material weaknesses in the most recent
2010-11 audit report indicates that this is the case. These three audit findings concern the
following:
• The significant number of financial restatements required by the auditors to ensure that
the financial statements were materially accurate.
• The significant number of errors in CCSF’s financial records that inhibited its ability to
close its books accurately and in a timely manner.
• CCSF’s lack of a long-term financing plan that will lower its OPEB liability and relieve
the negative unrestricted net asset balance of $25,056,628 as of June 30, 2011.
Analysis of Findings
2010-11 2009-10 2008-09
Number of continuing findings 6 8 4
Number of new findings 7 10 13
Total Findings 13 18 17
Recommendations
CCSF should:
1. Increase funding for the future cost of retiree health benefits using a struc-
tured plan rather than on an ad hoc basis.
2. If funds become available, consider funding its outstanding workers’ compen-
sation claims in advance of the current 25-year amortization plan.

Multiyear Financial Projection
Potential Funding Scenarios
CCSF faces four possible funding scenarios for 2012-13, which are predicated on two different
tax proposals included in the November 2012 election: the governor’s tax measure and a local
parcel tax for CCSF. The fiscal implications and projections for CCSF vary greatly depending
on the election outcome scenario on which they are based. Appendix A includes more detail
regarding each scenario, assumptions for each fiscal year, and information for 2014-15.
The two tables below summarize the four possible scenarios prepared by CCSF staff for fiscal
years 2012-13 and 2013-14.
Fiscal Year 2012-13 Funding Scenarios
If state tax and If state tax passes If state tax fails but If state tax and
parcel tax fail but parcel tax fails parcel tax passes parcel tax pass
Total Revenue $175,093,000 $187,299,000 $189,819,000 $201,064,000
Adopted Tentative Expense Budget $186,572,000 $186,572,000 $186,572,000 $186,572,000
(Deficit)/Surplus ($11,479,000) $727,000 $3,247,000 $14,492,000
Key assumption: CCSF continues spending at the level of the tentative budget under all scenarios.
Fiscal Year 2013-14 Funding Scenarios
If state tax and If state tax passes If state tax fails but If state tax and
parcel tax fail but parcel tax fails parcel tax passes parcel tax pass
Total Revenue $176,880,000 $188,196,000 $190,880,000 $202,176,000
Expected Level of Spending $201,450,000 $201,450,000 $201,450,000 $201,450,000
(Deficit)/Surplus ($24,570,000) ($13,254,000) ($10,570,000) $726,000
Even in the best case scenario in which both taxes pass in November 2012, CCSF’s fiscal condi-
tion remains a concern. CCSF must confront its serious and ongoing deficit spending, which is
increased partly because of the anticipated increases to support its retiree health benefit obliga-
tion, capital outlay, maintenance, and additions to the board reserve. These are all necessary
increases for a variety of reasons.
Because CCSF’s 2012-13 budget reductions were one-time in nature, the absence of these
reductions in fiscal years 2013-14 and 2014-15 results in increased operating costs and related
increased deficit spending year to year. In every scenario other than the best case in which both
taxes pass in November, CCSF faces substantial solvency issues over the next several years.
Appendix A of this report contains a multiyear financial projection (MYFP) for CCSF that
includes an explanation of the revenue and expenditure assumptions used in determining the
amounts for each year. The projection includes no permanent, ongoing expenditure reductions
beyond those identified in the fiscal year 2012-2013 tentative budget.
If voters approve the local parcel tax in November 2012, CCSF will not receive any resulting
revenues until fiscal year 2013-14. The administration has held discussions with, and received
authorization from, the board to issue debt instruments in order to receive the tax revenue in
2012-13. Although the exact amount of the debt has not yet been established, it is estimated to
California Community Colleges ChanCellor’s offiCe — City College of san franCisCo
20
multiyear financial projection
be up to approximately $14 million. If CCSF issues the debt, the funding would be accelerated.
There is a cost to borrow but it will not be known until the size and timing of the transaction are
established. At that time CCSF will need to decide if the earlier receipt of revenue is worth the
cost of issuing debt.
Multiyear Financial Projection
Multiyear financial projections (MYFPs) are an important part of the budget process. They
should be produced accurately and contain the most current fiscal information available. MYFPs
allow CCSF to project revenues and expenditures and help ensure that it will be able to meet its
financial obligations in the current and two subsequent fiscal years.
FCMAT reviewed the MYFP prepared by CCSF to ensure its validity. FCMAT reviewed the
performance of CCSF’s funds over the last several years to identify trends and formulate ques-
tions about the status of accounts. This review allowed FCMAT to validate CCSF’s general fund
budget projections for the current and two subsequent fiscal years and indicate any effects that
other funds may have on the general fund.
Any financial forecast has inherent limitations because it is based on certain criteria and assump-
tions rather than on exact calculations. Limitations include issues such as the accuracy of baseline
data, unpredictable timing of negotiations, unanticipated changes in enrollment trends, and
changing state, federal and local economic conditions. Therefore, the budget forecasting model
should be viewed as a trend based on certain criteria and assumptions rather than as a prediction
of exact numbers. To maintain the most accurate and meaningful data, the projection should be
updated at frequent intervals as well as when there are significant financial changes to CCSF’s
budget in current or future years. The projection should also be updated during collective
bargaining negotiations to determine the fiscal effect of any potential contractual changes.
In evaluating the MYFP, much attention is focused on the bottom line, which indicates CCSF’s
undesignated, unappropriated fund balance. If the bottom line shows a positive unappropriated
fund balance, this amount may be used by the governing board and/or the chancellor to improve
educational programs, increase employee compensation, improve the fund balance, fund liabili-
ties such as retiree benefits or workers’ compensation, or spend in other categories. However, if
the unappropriated fund balance is negative, the deficit is the amount by which the budget must
be reduced to sustain the recommended reserve levels and board-designated reserves. The MYFP
must be viewed comprehensively, and CCSF must determine the compounding effects that using
any or all of the unappropriated fund balance will have on the MYFP in the current and future
years. The unappropriated balance and the corresponding compound effects can be determined
clearly as the years proceed.
FCMAT reviewed CCSF’s records, interviewed staff members and examined financial reports
to gather the information needed to validate CCSF’s MYFP, which uses its fiscal year 2012-13
tentative budget as the base year. Based on FCMAT’s review of the data, the projection is reason-
able. Because there are multiple possible outcomes based on the upcoming election, the projec-
tions vary greatly from one scenario to another, and the variance increases further in the second
and third projection years.
CCSF’s 2012-13 tentative budget is balanced in terms of anticipated revenues and expendi-
tures, but it both assumes and depends on passage of the governor’s tax measure. Most of the
expenditure savings in the tentative budget are one-time concessions from the employee groups
for 2012-13 only, which means that CCSF will again need to make reductions for 2013-14.
Even with the passage of the governor’s tax measure, CCSF will have a projected shortfall of
Fiscal crisis & ManageMent assistance teaM
21
multiyear financial projection
$13 million in fiscal year 2013-14. CCSF cannot afford to wait and see if the local parcel tax is
approved before implementing expenditure reductions. To maintain fiscal solvency, it would be
best to identify reductions for 2013-14 as soon as possible and to ensure that they are ongoing
rather than temporary.
CCSF’s 2012-13 budget does not reflect increases to the fund balance. Although the budget
recognizes the possibility of a small state funding deficit of 0.7%, in today’s economic climate it
is likely that the deficit could be higher, which will reduce the fund balance. CCSF’s projected
surplus (revenues minus expenditures) if the state tax passes but the local parcel tax fails is
$727,000, which is minimal and leaves no margin for error or unexpected changes to the budget;
either could result in fiscal insolvency.
There is a possibility that the governor’s tax measure will not pass. Although CCSF has estimated
that this would reduce funding by another $11.5 million in 2012-13 if both the state tax and
parcel tax measures fail, it has not developed a plan to deal with this reduction should it occur,
and its ending fund balance is not sufficient to bear the burden.
CCSF is in a perilous financial position. It can neither afford to err in its budget assumptions
or accounting treatments, nor incur additional unbudgeted expenses. Even if CCSF is able to
maintain solvency in fiscal year 2012-13 using the measures it has enacted, it will experience
numerous challenging spending pressures and decisions in the future.
CCSF Response to the Possible Scenarios
At the time of this report, CCSF had planned only for the second scenario, in which the
governor’s tax measure passes and the local parcel tax does not pass in November 2012. As in
the past, CCSF plans to address the budget shortfall with one-time budget adjustments rather
than ongoing solutions, which is problematic. The identified one-time reductions total $6 to
$10 million. The variance exists because the reductions include goals to increase classroom
productivity as well as the annual calculation of funded full-time equivalent students (FTES),
which remains unknown. The interim chancellor and vice chancellor have indicated that they
will provide recommendations to the board in September 2012 regarding planning for the worst-
case scenario, in which both the state and local tax measures fail. Under this timeline, it will be
difficult to complete a plan by the first of November and unlikely that it will be implemented
until sometime after that.
Recommendations
CCSF should:
1. Ensure that any additional revenue or savings that materialize are used first to
improve its fund balance.
2. Develop a plan now for the scenario in which both November 2012 tax
measures fail.
3. Become more aggressive in reducing expenditures by implementing ongoing
budget adjustments to avoid insolvency.
4. Plan for and make permanent reductions to balance its fiscal year 2013-14
budget.
California Community Colleges ChanCellor’s offiCe — City College of san franCisCo

multiyear financial projection
5. Take a very conservative position with its tentative and adoption budgets, and
limit spending to an absolute minimum until the November election results
are known. Any savings can be used to help address a worst-case scenario in
the current year.
If the election results are positive, CCSF should assess the situation and then
develop a plan to restore the ending fund balance and to fund ongoing obli-
gations such as retiree health benefits and workers’ compensation.
6. Before adding any new discretionary costs to the budget, identify a reasonable
level of resources to commit to capital outlay from the operating budget,
beginning in fiscal year 2013-14.
7. Evaluate all requests for categorical program subsidies against all other uses
of unrestricted general fund monies and along with CCSF’s other priorities.
Subsidies should not be provided without analysis and discussion.
8. Ensure that multiyear projections include all cost increases such as those
for retiree health benefits, utilities, normal step-and-column movement,
employee benefits, and payroll. If a shortage occurs after including these
items, either identify an ongoing revenue source and/or implement perma-
nent cost reductions.

Collective Bargaining Agreements
SEIU, Stationary Engineers and Construction Trade Council Union
CCSF’s contract with the Service Employees International Union (SEIU) covers the majority
of its classified employees. Two other agreements cover a small number of classified employees,
stationary engineers and construction trades. In many respects these agreements are consistent
with the provisions of the SEIU agreement.
The contract with the SEIU contains most of the typical provisions found in such agreements;
however, it also provides benefits and compensation for classified employees that may not be
sustainable in this economic environment, including the following:
• Employees who work at least 20 hours per week receive full health and welfare benefits.
• The classified salary schedule has five annual steps. In addition, three longevity steps
(steps 6, 7 and 8) have been added, each of which requires five years to reach. The
additional pay increment for each step is 5%. These longevity steps add more than 15%
to the salary schedule. The contract includes language that allows negotiations to be
reopened regarding adding two more steps.
• The regular workweek is 37.5 hours.
• Employees are entitled to a portion of their accumulated sick leave as a cash payment
under the wellness provision.
• There are approximately 23 to 24 paid holidays, depending on the day of the week on
which Christmas and New Year’s fall.
• After 10 years of service, employees earn 22 days of vacation per year and can carry a
vacation balance of up to 480 hours, which can be paid out upon leaving employment.
• In the past, CCSF paid the employees’ share of the retirement fund contribution. In
2011, the amount CCSF had previously funded was converted to salary and employees
were required to begin paying their own contribution.
• The contracts have low requirements for employees to qualify for lifetime health benefits.
For employees hired before January 9, 2009 the requirement is age 50 with 5 years of
service. Effective January 9, 2009, new employees qualify on a sliding scale: employees
age 50 with 10 to 15 years of service qualify for 50% payment; those with 15-20 years of
service receive 75%; and those with 20 years or more of service receive 100%.
• The contract includes provisions for payments for wellness. This creates an obligation
that is difficult to quantify or anticipate.
The substantial amount of paid time off, the 37.5-hour work week, the high vacation accrual
levels and compensatory time provisions make it necessary for CCSF to have more employees on
the payroll than would otherwise be the case.
American Federation of Teachers (AFT) Local 2121
CCSF’s contract with the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) covers all of its full-time and
part-time academic employees. It does not cover retired faculty, temporary administrators, super-
visory, confidential or management employees.
California Community Colleges ChanCellor’s offiCe — City College of san franCisCo

staffing and operational costs
Although the agreement contains the provisions found in most agreements of this type, it also
provides benefits and compensation that may not be sustainable in the current economic envi-
ronment, including the following:
• Release time for contract administration, including grievance processing (3.75 FTE).
• Compensation for tenure review committee members and mentors
CCSF provides nine hours of non-instructional pay for committee members, 17 hours
for committee chairs, and 18 hours for mentors.
• Voluntary sick leave bank
This pays up to 100 days at half pay to supplement partially paid sick leave for full-time
employees, up to 100 days for part-time employees at level of the employee’s current
workload, and up to 25 full days of extraordinary benefits if other voluntary sick leave
bank benefits have been exhausted.
• Pregnancy disability leave
Employees receive up to six weeks of this leave, which is paid by CCSF and is not
deducted from an employee’s accrued sick leave.
• Sabbatical leave
Four percent of the total faculty are on leave each semester; at least three-quarters of this
must be for one-year sabbaticals.
• Load and class size
The minimum class size is 20, with some exceptions. Teaching load in the credit program
is 15 units per semester or 30 units per year with some adjustment based on varying
modes of instruction.
Noncredit teaching load is 25 contact hours per week.
A joint faculty/management committee was formed many years ago to discuss work load
and class size. The current contract contains the following statement acknowledging the
work of the joint committee:
“ . . . [acknowledges] the work of the Joint Committee as
detailed in the Efficiency Committee Report of January
1991. The District and Union affirmed their commitment
to further evaluate the Joint Committee’s recommendations
with particular emphasis on administrative efficiency, faculty
loads and class size in light of median loads and class sizes of

The salary formula may not adequately address CCSF’s rising costs of benefits, including
its retiree benefit obligation. Temporary part-time faculty are paid on a prorated basis
at 86% of full time rates, up to step 12 of the salary schedule (full-time permanent
employees are paid on this basis up to step 16) for the various modes of instruction. Pay
for temporary part-time office hours is based on the load assigned, with a range of up
to four, eight or 15 hours per semester. Full-time faculty are eligible for annual salary
step movement; step progression for part-time faculty is granted after completion of
four semesters, up to Step 12. Salary schedule column movement provisions provide
incentives to pursue further academic preparation via preapproved undergraduate or

staffing and operational costs
graduate units after initial salary placement. The annual cost for step-and-column
movement for full-time and part-time faculty was $1,528,556 in fiscal year 2010-11.
• Benefits
CCSF pays a city charter-mandated contribution for employee medical insurance
premiums for full-time and eligible part-time faculty. CCSF also pays 100% of the
premium for dental coverage for full-time and eligible part-time faculty. Part-time
employees are eligible if they are beginning at least their third semester and are assigned
either 12.5 hours or more per week for a semester in the noncredit program or 7.5 units
or more per week for a semester in the credit program. The total annual costs to CCSF of
this provision are $3,017,274 for health benefits and $443,779 for dental benefits.
• Substitutes
CCSF provides higher pay rates for substitute assignments that exceed 12% of the total
hours of an academic course.
The magnitude of its employee contract obligations makes it difficult for CCSF to continue as a
going concern without negotiating to reduce total staffing costs.
CCSF has employed twice as many full-time faculty as its peers, incurring expenses that are
$17 to $18 million higher than comparison districts. CCSF also employs more classified staff at
higher average salaries than the comparison districts.
Medical Benefit Costs
FCMAT evaluated CCSF’s medical benefit costs compared to those of 10 other Bay Area
community college districts. Bay Area districts were used for comparison because of the ease of
obtaining data and because the rates, which are usually based on geographic location, were likely
to be comparable. The analysis assessed only the medical premium costs associated with the
existing plans. An exhaustive analysis would require considering many variables, but this was not
possible because of constraints on time and information. The data for fiscal year 2010-11 indi-
cate that CCSF’s premium rates are near the median of those for the other 10 Bay Area commu-
nity college districts. However, CCSF has approximately two to three times more employees who
are eligible for these benefits than the other Bay Area districts used for comparison.
Full-Time Equivalent Students (FTES)
The number of full-time equivalent students (FTES) at CCSF from 2005-06 through 2011-12
has been fairly stable. The decline of 1,237 FTES during that time was due largely to state
funding reductions for FTES, which were out of CCSF’s control. During the decline, credit
FTES increased from 65.3% of total FTES in 2005-06 to 69.1% in 2011-12. Because credit
FTES are funded at a higher rate, this increase mitigated the effect of the decline in total FTES
somewhat. In 2011-12 CCSF received stability funds because it had fewer FTES than its base
amount for FTES funding. This occurred because of the decision to limit the spring and summer
sessions as a money-saving measure. CCSF fully anticipates restoring these FTES in 2012-13,
which would eliminate any negative effect on revenues.
Although there has been a slight decline in FTES during the seven-year period of 2005-06
through 2011-12, employee costs have increased in all but three categories. The table below
summarizes these changes.

*The 2011-12 amounts are budgeted figures. During this period basic skills was moved out of the unrestricted general fund,
so the 2005-06 amounts include these costs but the 2011-2012 amounts do not. Most of the basic skills salary costs were for
faculty. If they were included, the percentage change would be larger.
Revenues have increased over this same period by approximately 9.6%, excluding use of reserves
and one-time transfers.
The above table shows that regular faculty salaries have increased 25% during this period, while
FTES have decreased and revenues have increased by less than 10%. The decline in part-time
faculty costs is more representative of a decline in state-funded FTES. Increasing the number
of regular full-time faculty or increasing the pay structure locks in costs that are hard to reduce
during difficult financial times. The same is true for counselors and, to a lesser extent, librarians.
Revenue and Cost per FTES for Credit and Noncredit Courses
CCSF operates the largest noncredit program of any community college in California. In
2011-12 CCSF served 37,469 full-time equivalent resident and nonresident students (FTES). Of
these, 10,429 FTES, or 28%, were enrolled in noncredit courses, and 6,439 of the 10,429 FTES
were enrolled in English as a second language courses. Other significant noncredit program
enrollments were in transitional studies, learning assistance, and in business and office technology
and small business (see Appendix D for enrollment and FTES by discipline).
Noncredit funding is classified as either regular or as career development and college preparation
(CDCP). In 2006, the state created a funding category for CDCP courses, sometimes referred
to as enhanced noncredit courses. The California community college funding formula funds
regular noncredit at $2,745 per FTES and CDCP at $3,232 per FTES. Of CCSF’s total 10,429
noncredit FTES, 7,630 were CDCP and 2,799 were regular noncredit. Thus the majority of
CCSF’s noncredit FTES are funded at the higher rate.
To perform a revenue and cost analysis of the noncredit offerings at CCSF, certain assumptions
were used because CCSF does not account for revenues and expenditures in sufficient detail to
perform the analysis without them.
For example, FCMAT was provided with 2011-12 general fund unrestricted expenditure data for
credit, noncredit and support costs.

Source: Data provided by Controller. Report title: FICMAT_CR_NC_SUPPORT_NULL_Expenditure_Distributions.
Information provided by CCSF indicates that unrestricted general fund expenditures totaled
$199.9 million for fiscal year 2011-12, that 55% of this total is attributed to direct costs associ-
ated with credit instruction, 13% to direct cost of noncredit instruction, and 31% to indirect
support activity costs. Support activities are activities that provide support services such as facili-
ties, administrative and clerical, counseling, and libraries.
To accurately show the costs of the credit and noncredit programs, a means of allocating the
support costs between the credit and noncredit instruction had to be developed. FCMAT
used total direct expenditures for credit ($108,944,937= 80%) and total direct expenditures for
noncredit ($28,467,897= 20%) as a basis for allocating the majority of the support costs. In
the absence of data regarding the distribution of support costs, the assumption is that support
costs are incurred in the same ratio as direct costs. The exception to this 80%/20% distribution
of support costs was in the compensation costs for educational administrators; in this case a
70%/30% distribution was used, which approximates the ratio of credit enrollment to noncredit
enrollment.
Using this allocation method, total expenditures for credit instruction are $158,420,200
($108,944,937 + $49,475,263) and total expenditures for noncredit instruction are $41,493,465
($28,467,897 + $13,025,568). The projected costs per FTES are $5,859 for credit and $3,979
for noncredit. Actual 2011-12 FTES, including nonresident FTES, were used in the per-FTES
cost calculations (10,429 noncredit and 27,040 credit, including nonresidents).
When calculating revenue per credit and noncredit FTES, FCMAT had to make assumptions
similar to those made for the cost calculations. FCMAT only factored into the analysis those
revenue components that are considered by the state as computational revenue for state appor-
tionment purposes. These components include local property taxes, student enrollment fees and
state general apportionment.
Per the California Community College Chancellor’s Office’s (CCCCO’s) second principal appor-
tionment report for fiscal year 2011-12, CCSF’s total computational revenue was $152,686,227.
As previously stated, total expenditures for 2011-12 were $199,913,665. Thus expenditures
compared to the state computational revenue results in a deficit of $47,227,438 that must be
offset by other local revenues such as local sales tax, interest income, nonresident tuition and
other sources.
State funding provides CCSF with $5,000 per credit FTES and $3,341 per noncredit FTES.
The noncredit funding rate is approximately 67% of the funding rate for credit courses. These
funding rates include an appropriate allocation of foundation grant funding to the basic appor-
tionment rates. The noncredit rate is a proportional blend of the state’s regular noncredit and
CDCP noncredit rates, and the state’s basic allocation is 80% to credit and 20% to noncredit,
similar to how the support expenditures discussed above are allocated.

staffing and operational costs
CCSF’s expenditure per FTES in excess of apportionment revenues for fiscal year 2011-12 was
$637 for noncredit instruction and $859 for credit instruction. Thus noncredit requires $637
per FTES from other funding sources, and credit requires $859 per FTES from other funding
sources. Based on this analysis, there is little difference in the proportion of revenue to cost when
comparing credit offerings to noncredit offerings. For credit courses, 85.34% of funding per
FTES is provided by apportionment revenue; for noncredit courses, 84% of funding per FTES is
provided by apportionment revenue. The noncredit funding rate is lower, but costs are lower as
well. Based on these revenue-to-expense proportions, the efficiency of credit and noncredit offer-
ings are nearly equal. The table below summarizes this analysis

Noncredit $41,493,465 10,429 $3,979 $3,342 $637 84.00%
Total $199,913,665 37,469
This analysis has used the 2011-12 general apportionment revenue in calculating the revenue
per FTES. Actual FTES, including nonresident FTES, was used to calculate expenditures per
FTES. Total FTES were used to calculate the per-FTES cost because the general fund expen-
ditures incurred in 2011-12 included costs of serving both resident and nonresident students.
It is assumed that the nonresident tuition rate per FTES approximates state apportionment
revenue since all of the nonresident students appear to be in enrolled in credit courses. Significant
assumptions were made in allocating the support costs, which CCSF does not classify in its
accounting system. If CCSF continues to use the revenue and expense model in this report, it
will need to review more closely the 80%/20% distribution of these costs to confirm the appro-
priateness of this assumption. The effect of categorical revenue and expenses would also need to
be reviewed as relates to this analysis.
The funding rate per noncredit FTES is approximately 70% of the apportionment per credit
FTES. However, costs in the noncredit program are also lower. A significant amount of the
difference in costs between credit and noncredit is due to differences in teaching load. In the
credit program, the teaching load is 15 contact hours per week; in the noncredit program,
teaching load is 25 contact hours per week. Thus the teaching load in noncredit is 67% greater.
The lower funding rate in the noncredit program is compensated for by the overall cost savings
that result from faculty members having a higher teaching load, even though the salary schedule
is the same.
Instructional productivity, as measured by FTES per full-time equivalent faculty (FTEF), is
similar in both programs. According to information provided by CCSF, productivity is 35.53
FTES per FTEF in the credit program and 36.76 FTES per FTEF in the noncredit program.
Given the assumptions necessary to complete this analysis, the comparison of revenue and cost
per FTES for credit and noncredit programs yielded no significant difference on a proportional
basis, even though in terms of absolute dollars credit courses required a greater per-FTES contri-
bution from other funding sources ($859) than did noncredit courses ($637).

Faculty Obligation Number (FON)
Assembly Bill (AB) 1725 changed the community college funding formula in the early 1990s
and included goals to both maintain a required number of full-time faculty teaching in credit
programs and to increase the number of full-time faculty as growth funding was provided. The
goal established was that 75% of the hours of credit instruction offered should be taught by full-
time faculty, and thus the 75-to-25 ratio became part of the community college lexicon. Some
limited additional resources were allocated to colleges via the state budget to support this effort
for the first two or three years after the passage of AB 1725, but not subsequent to that. Although
the goal to maintain and increase full-time faculty remained, the lack of state funding limited
progress toward meeting it.
The AB 1725 commitment had two parts: To convert part-time faculty to full time to increase
the ratio of full-time to part-time faculty in community colleges statewide; and to increase hourly
part-time pay so that it would be more comparable to the salaries paid to full-time teaching
faculty. Like the funding to hire more full-time faculty, the supplemental allocation to fund part-
time faculty pay has been reduced and offset by state general apportionment reductions.
The minimum faculty requirement established by AB 1725 remains in place and is calculated
each year for each college district based on the prior year number and any growth funding CCSF
received. This calculation is based on credit enrollment only.
CCSF’s faculty obligation number (FON) for fall 2011 was 483.80 (the FON requirement
applies only to the credit program). CCSF’s most recent reporting (November 2011) indicated
that it had 661.33 FTEF, which is 177.53, or 36.9%, more FTEF than required.
Of the five similar community college districts chosen for comparison purposes, only Santa
Monica similarly exceeds its FON, with 36.8% more FTEF than required. Santa Monica
has a much lower base FTEF in spite of the fact that its FTES credit enrollment is similar to
that of CCSF. Statewide, community college districts exceeded the FON by an average of 11
FTEF. CCSF exceeds its required FON by the greatest amount of any district in the state when
measured numerically. Based on its own reports, full-time faculty positions comprise 71.35%
of the total credit teaching faculty at CCSF. Statewide, full-time faculty positions comprise an
average of 58.24% of total credit teaching faculty at community colleges.
To control costs and ensure an appropriate mix of teaching faculty practitioners, most commu-
nity college districts seek a faculty staffing level that exceeds their FON to some extent but
not significantly. This is because even with the increases in part-time hourly rates, part-time
faculty are less expensive than full-time faculty for most districts. However, this is not the case
with CCSF because of its hourly teaching rates and contract provisions that provide full health
benefits to part-time employees.
Although CCSF’s relatively high ratio and number of full-time faculty may not affect short-term
costs because of the high level of contractual salaries and benefits paid to part-time faculty, it
will affect these costs in the long term because of the implications of retiree health benefits for
full-time employees. Greater use of part-time faculty also provides more flexibility and has the
potential to make CCSF more responsive to local instructional program needs.
Part-Time Faculty Costs
CCSF’s estimated average rate of pay for a part-time instructor is $113.51 per hour. Based on
this rate, the estimated annual cost of one part-time faculty who works the equivalent of full time
(one FTEF) is $59,595, or approximately $6,000 per course. FCMAT confirmed these pay rates

staffing and operational costs
through a review of financial records for fiscal year 2010-11 that indicate the total hourly pay in
relation to total part-time faculty. Statutory benefits such as workers’ compensation, unemploy-
ment insurance and retirement contributions add 6.6 % to this total. In addition, if a part-time
faculty member’s teaching assignment is equal to or greater than 50% (7.5 units for credit and
12.5 units for noncredit) of a full time load, he or she is eligible for health benefits partially paid
by CCSF and for fully paid dental benefits.
The following table provides a calculation of the total cost of one part-time faculty member who
works the equivalent of full time (one FTEF).

*Health benefits are included twice because the table assumes that two half time employees with loads of 50% or more are

CCSF’s part-time faculty salary schedule and health benefit provisions in its collective bargaining
agreement with the American Federation of Teachers (AFT) Local 2121 have negated any signifi-
cant short-term cost advantage of using part-time faculty. The lower costs associated with part-
time faculty have typically allowed community college districts to maintain their class schedules
and offerings at a lower cost, but this is not the case at CCSF.
Release Time
CCSF provides a large amount of faculty release time (also referred to as reassigned time) for
a variety of activities, the majority of which are administrative in nature. Some release time is
expected and is considered normal to enable an organization to perform administrative functions.
The important and often difficult task is to avoid increasing release time as an easy solution to
immediate problems. The amount of release time can increase significantly if it is not monitored
or used carefully. Using release time to resolve immediate problems or issues contributes to a less
efficient, less accountable and more costly structure, and masks the true cost of administrative
functions.
Analysis reveals that a majority of the release time is used to enable faculty to perform admin-
istrative work. CCSF’s release time totals 109.69 full-time equivalent faculty (FTEF) positions,
although the release time is distributed among many more than 109 faculty members.
CCSF has created an administrative structure that relies heavily on department chairs, who are
elected by their peers and approved by CCSF’s academic administration, to perform administra-
tive and supervisory functions (this structure is discussed further in the Administrative Structure
section later in this report).
Fiscal crisis & ManageMent assistance teaM
31
staffing and operational costs
The department chairs operate under a collective bargaining agreement between CCSF and the
department chair council (DCC). A total of 56.85 FTEF are reassigned to perform administra-
tive and supervisory functions. The department chairperson formula for release, which is based
on either weekly student contact hours (WSCH) or full-time academic employees in the depart-
ment, accounts for 29.4 FTEF release time for 2011-12. Another contract provision enumerates
extra specific reassigned units (ESRUs), which are reassigned units in addition to those awarded
as part of the base formula. This provision accounts for 20.764 FTEF of release time. In addition
to the release time, department chairs are paid a stipend based on years of service. The scope of
duties and discretion granted to department chairs differs significantly from the industry stan-
dard, to the extent that deans and other senior administrators are marginalized in the operation
of CCSF’s instructional program.
In addition to the department chair council release time, CCSF has a history of releasing faculty
from classroom teaching duties to provide a number of services. This faculty release time is not
governed by the DCC collective bargaining agreement and is noninstructional, but is associated
with instructional disciplines. This type of release time totals 35.324 FTEF. The information
provided by CCSF did not include a specific description of the duties for which reassigned time
is being allocated in the 23 instructional disciplines for which it provides support. Some of the
instructional disciplines that use significant amounts of this release time include culinary arts,
with 2.057 FTEF; English, with 4.46 FTEF; educational technology, with 2.4 FTEF; health
education, with 2.4 FTEF; physical education, with 2.8 FTEF; photography, with 2.13 FTEF;
and English as a second language (ESL), with 5.378 FTEF. Based on the cost of $80,127 per
FTEF for other instructional employees to perform the instructional duties of faculty when they
are on release time, the total annual cost of this reassigned time is $2,830,406 (35.324 FTEF
multiplied by $80,127).
In addition to the release time for instructional discipline support, there are 17.52 FTEF of
release time for nondepartmental, noninstructional purposes. These include, but are not limited
to, the following:
• Academic Senate (2.0 FTEF)
• AFT (3.6 FTEF)
• Mentoring/grow your own program (0.91 FTEF)
• Site Supervision for the eight primary sites (3.90 FTEF)
The estimated annual cost of noninstructional reassigned time for 17.52 FTEF is $1,403,825.
A total of 109.69 FTEF are being reassigned from classroom responsibilities for the reasons and
in the amounts indicated in the table below:
Reason for and Amounts and Costs of Reassigned Time
Reason FTEF Cost
DCC Provisions 56.85 $ 5,229,730
Noninstructional Program related reassignments. 35.32 $2,830,406
Nondepartmental, Noninstructional reassignments 17.52 $1,403,825
Total 109.69 $ 9,463,961
The total cost of these reassignments is $9,463,961. This is the cost to provide hourly instruction
for those courses that would otherwise be taught by full-time faculty if they were not on release
time.

staffing and operational costs
In addition to the 109.69 FTEF release time, CCSF reports that during the 2011-12 school year
16 FTEF were on sabbatical, six FTEF were on ancillary assignments, approximately 12 FTEF
were on unpaid leave, and an unreported amount of FTEF were on pre-retirement reduced load.
Although there is no industry-standard or common practice regarding faculty release time in
community colleges, it is customary for districts to have some faculty release time. Typically,
however, release time is granted to improve instruction or support curriculum development, not
to provide administrative support.
CCSF reported 842 tenure-track faculty in fall of 2011. Including department chair release time
and all other releases or sabbatical replacements, approximately 14% of CCSF’s full-time faculty
FTEF are being released to fulfill nonteaching responsibilities. CCSF must consider whether it
is using this large number of highly qualified classroom instructors in the most effective manner
and whether students are benefitting from the current arrangement. The proliferation of release
time creates a unique administrative structure that is difficult to manage, reduces accountability
and makes coordination and decision-making more challenging.
Off-Site Programs and Centers
CCSF describes itself as having one main campus, eight centers, and approximately 100 other
locations where courses are offered. These locations fall into one of the following categories:
• State-approved centers for which CCSF receives foundation grant funding (which is
part of the state funding formula for college districts to offset some of the costs of fixed
expenses associated with these locations). CCSF is a single-college district and receives
foundation grant funding for the college and for state-approved centers, based on the
amount of FTES at the college or center.
• State-approved centers that are identified but that do not meet criteria for foundation
grant funding.
• Other sites that are too small to receive any funding other than per-FTES funding.
• Campuses, which are identified as such on CCSF’s website. .
CCSF characterizes its locations as sites, centers, locations and campuses in different publications
and reports; there does not seem to be consistency in how that determination is made.
The CCCCO uses the following definitions:
College-CCR T5 55827 (a) A degree-granting institution intended to provide instruc-
tion through the second year of college, including but not limited to, one or more of
the following categories:
1. Standard collegiate courses for transfer to higher institutions;
2. Vocational and technical fields leading to employment; or
3. General or liberal arts courses for which institution the district intends to
obtain accreditation
Educational Center-CCR T5 55827(b) A postsecondary operation established and
administered by an existing college or district at a location away from the campus of
the parent institution. An educational center is an operation planned to continue for
three or more years and expected to enroll over 500 FTES by the third year of opera-

tion. The center typically has an on-site administrator and may offer programs leading
to certificates and/or degrees conferred by the parent institution.
Campus-Is like a college in most respects but may not offer a full complement of
programs or services and is combined with other campuses or a college into a single
institution for accreditation purposes.
Outreach Operation-Is an off-campus enterprise administered by an existing college
or district and offering courses in leased or owned facilities which have not been
formally approved by the Board of Governors. It is often located in other government
facilities, usually enrolls less than 500 FTES (approximately 1,000 head count) and
may not be considered as having the potential to grow, over a period of time, into a
college, campus or educational center. Outreach operations are combined with a college
for accreditation and reporting purposes.
According to the CCCCO, CCSF consists of the Ocean/Phelan Campus, eight centers, and one
district office. In addition, there are more than 100 outreach operations throughout the city.
The Ocean Campus and eight state-approved centers are listed in the table below along with the
apportionment formula foundation grant funds provided for each. The state community college
allocation formula provides for foundation grant funds to partially fund fixed costs associated
with these approved campuses and centers. Foundation allocations are based on FTES enroll-
ment. The Airport Center does not have sufficient FTES to qualify for foundation grant funding.

Enrollment numbers do not match 2011-12 CCSF 320 report because summer 2011 enrollment was applied to the
2010-11 school year.
The first table in Appendix D shows FTES noncredit enrollment by discipline, and a second
table shows the number of course sections offered at each location in spring 2012. Except for the
Ocean Campus, the centers and outreach operations offer mostly noncredit courses. These other
locations reported 9,567 noncredit FTES and 3,524 credit FTES in 2011-12. For all locations,
including the Ocean Campus, 6,439 noncredit FTES were generated by students enrolled in
English as a second language courses. Based on information from CCSF, the assumption is that
most of these were at the off-campus centers. CCSF does not report information in a way that
allows one to match the site, building and number of course sections offered, so FCMAT was
unable to perform the type of analysis needed to make definitive conclusions or recommenda-
tions in this area.
Centers typically have staff assigned to them. CCSF’s organizational charts do not specifically
identify center staffing, and the accounting system does not account for costs by center. The
industry standard is that outreach locations typically do not have permanent staff assigned, and
the expenses are usually limited to the cost of the instructor; however, FCMAT was not able to
validate that CCSF follows this standard.
Although there is some data regarding off-site instructional operations, it is not sufficient to
enable a proper analysis of revenues and costs per site. Therefore FCMAT is unable to provide
specific recommendations regarding the viability of these various operations.
To evaluate the effectiveness of each of the centers and outreach operations, CCSF will need to
begin capturing all cost data by center and, to the extent possible, the costs incurred at outreach
locations. CCSF staff would need to analyze this data to match specific programs, course
sections, enrollment, productivity and cost data with the many locations. This is an enrollment
management function that will require both quantitative and qualitative cost-benefit analysis
to arrive at a judgment about the extent to which the outreach effort can be sustained with the
resources available. The analysis may reveal that courses could be consolidated to still provide
the service but at fewer locations. However, based on the data available at the time of this report,
FCMAT was not able to reach definitive conclusions. Additional in-depth study and analysis is
needed beyond what FCMAT was able provide in the short time frame for this review.
Recommendations
(Changes may require negotiations.)
CCSF should:
1. Through the collective bargaining process, address the issue of adding steps to
the classified salary schedule.
2. For SEIU, Consider combining or eliminating part-time positions, or nego-
tiate a benefit structure under which employees qualify for partial benefits
only if they work 20 hours or more (a higher threshold could be selected) per
week.

staffing and operational costs
3. Consider negotiating to eliminate contract provisions that are out of the
ordinary and that increase costs, or for which costs are difficult to quantify or
anticipate, such as the SEIU contract provision for wellness payments.
4. Consider negotiating reductions to the contract provisions that provide clas-
sified staff with substantial paid time off, a 37.5-hour workweek, and high
levels of accrual for vacation and compensatory time.
5. Through the collective bargaining process, negotiate to align staffing with
available resources and the college’s need to reorganize programs and course
offerings.
6. Analyze the cost-effectiveness of non-instruction-related release time to deter-
mine if duties performed are essential or could be done by others. Eliminate
this release time when possible, and negotiate reductions if required.
7. Consider negotiating reductions to the AFT contract provisions that provide
benefits and compensation that may not be sustainable in the current
economic environment, including compensation for tenure review committee
members and mentors and generous categories of employee leave.
8. Negotiate to reduce total staffing costs for all bargaining units, including
SEIU, AFT and department chairs. This could include rolling back pay
schedules, reducing the cost of health benefits, reducing the cost per hour for
part-time faculty, and/or reducing or eliminating the cost of part-time faculty
health benefits (more specific recommendations related to the department
chairs appear in the Administrative Structure section of this report, which
begins on page 45).
9. Develop and implement accounting protocols that enable it to determine the
full cost of operating each of its nine main sites.
10. Develop criteria to help evaluate the cost effectiveness and service require-
ments of the college centers to determine the best future use for them.
11. Develop criteria to eliminate some of the outreach locations where few
courses are offered. Criteria might include items such as cost-benefit, logis-
tical considerations, ability to manage the site, and availability of courses at a
nearby location.
12. Change its descriptions of its off-campus locations to be consistent with the
CCCCO’s definitions for them.
13. Account for expenditures by both location and function to provide more
detailed data for decisions that affect future budgets.
14. Reduce the number of full-time faculty through attrition.
15. Evaluate ways to increase the productivity and cost-effectiveness of the credit
program.

staffing and operational costs
16. Decrease the amount of full-time faculty release time from the current level of
approximately 14% so that faculty use highly qualified classroom instructors
in a more effective manner to fulfill more teaching responsibilities to ensure
that students receive the full benefit of their expertise.
17. To the extent practicable, budget and charge expenditures appropriately to
the credit or the noncredit program.
18. Because of the size of the noncredit program, analyze and refine the revenue
and cost model used in this report to verify the conclusions. Further analysis
may be needed to make policy or operational decisions.

comparison with similar districts
Comparison with Similar Districts
To provide additional context to the analysis of CCSF’s fiscal condition, five similar community
college districts were selected against which CCSF was compared in terms of spending, staffing,
and productivity. The selected districts are Santa Monica, Long Beach, Foothill-De Anza, Mt.
San Antonio and El Camino. No district is exactly like another, but FCMAT’s goal was to
identify enough similarity to provide a valid comparison. Four of the five comparison districts are
large single-college districts in metropolitan settings with diverse student populations. Because all
four of these districts are in southern California, FCMAT added a Bay Area district, Foothill-De
Anza, which it believes to be the most comparable even though it is a multicollege district.
The comparison data for staffing, student demographics and classroom productivity is from the
CCCCO’s MIS Data Mart for fall 2011. The financial data is from the CCCCO’s Fiscal Data
Abstract and CCSF’s 311, which is the state-mandated form used to report data for all of the
district’s funds, including actual costs at the close of a fiscal year and budgeted costs for the next
fiscal year.
Staffing Comparison
CCSF has significantly more regular full-time equivalent (FTE) employees than the comparison
districts, both in total and per FTES. Although part of this can be attributed to size, a compar-
ison of CCSF with the two districts closest in size, Mt. San Antonio and Santa Monica, and
using a common measure such as number of FTE staff per 1,000 FTES, indicates that CCSF still
has significantly more FTE staff than these two districts.
The table below compares these three districts’ FTE staffing.

CCSF has almost double the number of tenured faculty as the two other districts above, at
23.52 FTE per 1,000 FTES versus 13.69 and 12.17 for Mt. San Antonio and Santa Monica,
respectively. CCSF has 396 more full-time faculty than Mt. San Antonio and 510 more full-time
faculty than Santa Monica. CCSF also ranks higher than these comparison districts in part-time
academic employees, with 121 and 39 more than Mt. San Antonio and Santa Monica, respec-
tively. In addition, CCSF’s total number of academic full-time equivalent positions is 517 more
than Mt. San Antonio and 548 more than Santa Monica. These numbers indicate a substantial
difference in cost per FTES served.
CCSF also has significantly more classified staff support than these two comparison districts,
with 192 more full-time equivalent (FTE) staff than Mt. San Antonio and 243 more FTE staff
than Santa Monica in this category.

CCSF is the third lowest of the comparison districts in productivity for credit classes (FTES per
section average). Appendix C provides a more detailed list by discipline, which shows that CCSF
has both more tenured faculty and lower productivity, which compounds its fiscal burden.
Comparison of Costs and Use of Resources
Appendix C also identifies areas in which CCSF tends to spend more than the five similar
comparison districts, areas in which its spending is similar, and areas in which it spends less. This
report summarizes key findings, and the tables in Appendix C provide additional detail.
Because no two community college districts are the same, any statistical report must be evaluated
in context. Although different districts may provide similar services, the extent of services and
the methods of providing them can be determined locally by the governing board and are often
decided based on the culture of the organization. As a result, each cost area will not match exactly
those of other districts.
However, it is possible to examine the degree and level of resources committed to each of the
services and determine in which categories CCSF spends more or less than similar districts,
which can be a result of either efficiencies or inefficiencies. Knowing the areas in which CCSF
spends its financial resources differently can help in future decision-making.
The information included in the comparative analysis is collected from the CCCCO’s Fiscal
Data Abstract, which is a compilation of information submitted by every California community
college district. The most recent data available is for fiscal year 2010-11. The information avail-
able is for the total unrestricted and restricted general fund. Although it would be preferable to
have only the unrestricted general fund data for a comparison, the state does not separate the
unrestricted data sufficiently. Because of this FCMAT verified the ratio of unrestricted expendi-
tures to the total general fund expenditures for each district to help validate the appropriateness
of the selected comparison districts. This ratio is provided in the comparison table immediately
Fiscal crisis & ManageMent assistance teaM
41
comparison with similar districts
following the list of FTES in Appendix C. Taxonomy of program (TOP) codes 6000 through
6700 reflect mostly unrestricted costs, which again adds credibility to the comparison.
FCMAT used two approaches when compiling the comparisons. The first was to review what
percentage of the budget each district spent for a specific activity. For example, CCSF spends
1.93% of its budget on admissions and records, whereas Santa Monica spends 2.43% of its
budget for this function. This comparison was conducted for all the peer districts. FCMAT’s goal
was to measure CCSF against each of the comparison districts to determine CCSF’s performance
for each function. This process reveals where each district places more or less emphasis and helps
verify whether resources are being spent in accordance with a district’s mission and goals.
The second approach was to translate this same data into spending per FTES to demonstrate
how CCSF compares to the other districts. For example, CCSF spends $282 per FTES for
counseling (TOP Code 6300), whereas Mt. San Antonio spends $165 per FTES for the same
function. For CCSF to spend the same as Mt. San Antonio it would need to reduce spending
by $117 per FTES, which would result in a total reduction of $4,614,000 based on its FTES
of 39,438. This example is not given to suggest that CCSF should spend less in this area but to
illustrate how to read the data. The amount spent per FTES is the common denominator that
allows FCMAT to place a value on the differences.
Although this information allows comparisons to be made, it requires further validation by
CCSF because other circumstances may affect the results. These circumstances may include
errors in the posting of costs. For example, the supplemental information indicates that CCSF
spends more than the comparison districts on TOP code 6700, General Institutional Support
Services, and more specifically in TOP code 6770, Logistics. FCMAT questioned CCSF
regarding this variance and was told that this is the code to which annual retiree health benefit
payments are charged, which is not consistent with the comparison districts or the state budget
and accounting manual, which identifies TOP code 5900 for these costs for instructional
employees and TOP code 6740 for these costs for noninstructional employees. CCSF admin-
istrators have indicated their intention to adjust the coding of these costs to adhere to the state
budget and accounting manual.
As CCSF reviews this comparison, it may decide that the higher costs are warranted and in line
with CCSF’s goals, but must also recognize that this means fewer resources for other activities.
In the event that CCSF finds this comparison useful, FCMAT has provided CCSF staff with the
tools to complete this type of analysis in the future. Because the number of FTES changes and
expenditure patterns shift, the data in this type of comparison will change and the analysis will
need to be updated.
On pages 23-24, 29-30 and 39-40 of this report FCMAT indicated the areas in which CCSF is
spending significantly more than its peers. FCMAT also calculated that for CCSF to spend at the
average of the five comparison districts, it would need to spend less in the categories listed in the
following table:

**From the first table in Appendix C, titled “Comparison with Peer Districts, Fiscal Data Abstract 2010-11.”
The results of this data support the findings of the staffing analysis. CCSF’s decisions regarding
full-time faculty result in the higher costs for academic employees, which in turn result in higher
total salaries and benefits and higher total costs.

enrollment management
Enrollment Management
Traditionally, enrollment management focuses on student recruitment and marketing, student
engagement and connection, technology (distance education), counseling and support.
Enrollment management in the context of this report also focuses on enrollment goals for
campuses, sites, programs and disciplines; the deployment of resources to achieve those goals; and
measurement of progress.
CCSF shows little evidence of an effective enrollment management plan, and no individual or
position appears to have been assigned the responsibility for this function. Even though enroll-
ment management must be an institutional commitment, authority and accountability for
ensuring that a plan is in place and properly executed is imperative.
CCSF does not provide sufficient data in a timely and consistent fashion to make important
enrollment management decisions in these difficult financial times. Serving students when
resources are reduced requires maximizing the use and effect of all available resources, but this is
not possible without an effective enrollment management plan.
Interviews conducted and documents gathered during FCMAT’s fieldwork suggest that classes at
CCSF may be offered based more on tradition, custom and special interest than demand, needs
analysis and evaluation of resources required. If this is the case, CCSF is not aligning services
with resources, which is its mission.
To operate effectively when resources are limited, it is necessary to have timely and reliable enroll-
ment management data, and the assurance that those using the data understand it.
A comprehensive enrollment management plan requires the development of metrics to measure
progress and performance. The Banner software system, which CCSF uses, can be used to
produce reliable enrollment and productivity data by site, discipline and course in a consistent
format. It is a best practice to design reporting tools to provide needed data for timely review by
management, faculty and staff.
CCSF is unique in its high number of approved instructional campuses and sites where courses
are offered, and in the magnitude of its noncredit offerings. These elements make enrollment
management more complicated but also increase the need for data to avoid duplication of effort
and maximize the effective use of resources.
CCSF has implemented an enrollment strategy for its summer session as a result of having a very
limited summer session in 2010. By regulation, summer FTES can be counted either in the fiscal
year prior to July 1 or the subsequent fiscal year depending on the start and end dates and the
first census period for those courses. Normally, summer session is the first session of a new fiscal
year. Regulations also provide that in a year of enrollment decline a district will receive stability
funds in that year (2011-12 in CCSF’s case). If enrollment increases back to a district’s funded
base FTES in the following year (2012-13 in CCSF’s case), there will be no permanent loss of
revenue.
CCSF also has three years to fully restore its FTES base. CCSF intends to restore its base in
2012-13 even though the number of course sections has been reduced for fall 2012 and spring
2013 to reduce hourly instructional costs. CCSF’s strategy is to rely on classroom faculty produc-
tivity gain (increased class sizes) and use as much summer 2013 FTES as necessary. Depending
on the outcome of the governor’s tax proposal and the amount of revenue loss the community
college system experiences, CCSF may see a further reduction in its required funding FTES base.
California Community Colleges ChanCellor’s offiCe — City College of san franCisCo
44
enrollment management
According to the second period apportionment report from the CCCCO, stability funding
totaling $7,864,724 is being provided to CCSF in 2011-12 for 1,828 FTES. Base credit
and noncredit FTES is 34,223 (this number may be adjusted in 2012-13 depending on the
California community college system apportionment revenue loss). The final CCSF 320 report
filed with the CCCCO on July 15, 2012 reported 32,664 total FTES for 2011-12.
California community colleges typically measure classroom teaching faculty productivity in
weekly student contact hours per full-time equivalent faculty (WSCH/FTEF), or full-time
equivalent students per full-time equivalent faculty (FTES/FTEF). Each measure uses the same
variables in its computation. One student taking a full load of 15 semester units and spending 15
hours per week in class for 17.5 weeks over 2 semesters equals 525 weekly student contact hours,
so 525 contact hours equals one FTES. If students are taking less than a full course load, it will
typically require several of them to equal one FTES.
Examples
1) 30 students (head count) X 15 class hours per week X 35 weeks/525
WSCH=30 FTES per FTEF
2) 35 students (head count) X 15 class hours per week X 35 weeks/525
WSCH=35 FTES per FTEF
In example #1, the 30 FTES per FTEF is equal to 450 WSCH per FTEF. A common
districtwide goal is 525 WSCH per FTEF or higher, which is equal to an average class size of 35
students or more.
CCSF calculates the number of FTES per FTEF by discipline, but it is not clear how this
information is used. Apparently there is not a districtwide, departmentwide or disciplinewide
productivity goal that is widely shared. The number appears in program review documents, but it
is not clear how it is used.
There are two fundamental strategic considerations in education:
• Business decisions related to costs and returns.
• Educational decisions related to access to instruction and preservation of instructional
quality.
Both of these must be considered in light of an institution’s mission and the need to maintain
fiscal solvency.
The measure of productivity (class size) is an important factor in assumptions made by CCSF for
2012-13. The strategy CCSF is using is to offer fewer course sections with the assumption that
enrollment in the remaining sections will increase, thus generating more total FTES. The success
of this strategy will depend on how successful CCSF and its teaching faculty are at increasing
productivity over historical levels.
Time did not permit FCMAT to perform a comprehensive evaluation of classroom productivity
by discipline and by site. Based on reports supplied by CCSF, the average productivity for
2011-12 for credit courses was 35.53 FTES per FTEF. For noncredit courses the average was
36.76 FTES per FTEF. FCMAT was not able to confirm these numbers. Enrollment manage-
ment will be an important tool as CCSF plans course schedules, seeks to control direct costs, and
measures progress toward FTES goals. Because revenue is largely driven by service level (FTES) it
is imperative that CCSF manage this aspect of its operations effectively.

Recommendations
CCSF should:
1. Ensure that the governing board makes enrollment management a key
component of strategic planning.
2. Develop and implement an in-depth enrollment management training
program for administrators, department chairs and key faculty leadership,
focusing first on the fundamentals of enrollment management, including
what it is, what it is not, and what is to be accomplished.
3. Prepare an enrollment management plan that focuses on development of the
following:
• Clearly communicated enrollment strategies.
• A clear articulation of institutional and campus- and site-specific enrollment
goals for credit and noncredit FTES and WSCH, based on CCSF’s mission.
• Classroom and faculty productivity goals to manage instructional resources
required to produce desired outcomes.
• An institutional commitment to data-driven decisions about course scheduling
and program delivery.
• A compilation of data and measurements needed to determine progress and
monitor the performance of the institution, programs, disciplines, courses and
sites.
• A means of evaluating enrollment management performance by campus and
site to avoid unnecessary duplication of effort.
• A plan that is constantly updated as institutional needs change.
4. Devote sufficient resources to information technology, and in particular the
Banner software system, to develop reporting tools and to provide the timely
data needed to support enrollment management.
5. Evaluate its attendance accounting procedures, using either its own staff or
outside resources, to ensure that CCSF is claiming all of the FTES it is enti-
tled to under current regulations as provided in the California Community
Colleges Attendance Accounting Manual.
6. Clarify the roles and responsibilities of the vice chancellor for business and
the vice chancellor of academic affairs with regard to enrollment management
in order to provide needed leadership.
7. Use the Banner software system to produce reliable enrollment and produc-
tivity data by site, discipline and course in a consistent format.
8. Ensure that its enrollment management reporting tools are designed to
provide data for timely review by management, faculty and staff.

9. Evaluate the process for scheduling classes at each site and determine what
enrollment management strategies are used when making scheduling deci-
sions.
10. Ensure that a well-developed, data-based program review process serves as the
basis for enrollment management decisions.

Administrative Structure
The data included in the Comparison with Similar Districts section of this report indicate that
the number of educational administrators CCSF employs per 1,000 FTES is comparable with
those of the comparison districts. CCSF indicates it has no classified administrator positions;
rather, it categorizes its classified managers as classified professionals. FCMAT’s comparison
combines classified administrators and classified professionals to capture the information in a
representative fashion. CCSF has a higher number of employees per FTES in these combined
categories than either Mt. San Antonio or Santa Monica.
CCSF initially suggested that it had too few academic managers, but the data does not support
this assertion. Because of the accelerated timeline for this review and because the comparative
data suggest that CCSF is not dissimilar to the comparison districts, FCMAT did not examine
and compare the details of each comparison district’s organizational structure to that of CCSF.
FCMAT concluded that other areas of the organization required greater attention. Thus data was
not gathered from the Integrated Postsecondary Education Data System (IPEDS) as stated in
the study agreement; rather, the FCMAT team gathered the data from Datamart, the CCCCO’s
database.
The use of some release time is normal in the community college system; however, the magnitude
and types of release time assignments at CCSF are cause for concern. CCSF allows an inordinate
amount of release time, which is expensive because of CCSF’s high salaries and benefits for the
part-time employees who replace full-time employees when they are on release time. A significant
part of this release time is for department chairs and for release time assignments.
Department Chairpersons
The structure and responsibilities of department chairs at CCSF differ significantly from what is
typical at most California community colleges. Specifically, the department chairs have respon-
sibility for decisions about program and course offerings as well as control over release time
assignments.
Statements made during numerous interviews conducted by FCMAT identified the department
chairs as one of the most powerful groups on campus because of the amount of decision-making
authority granted to these positions. Correspondingly, as indicated earlier in this report, the
decision-making authority of the deans and vice chancellors has been marginalized.
Because the department chairs’ work year is the same as that of the faculty, they are not available
at various times of the year, which increases the difficulty of managing this structure and limits
the administration’s ability to make important program decisions. In addition, the current evalu-
ation process creates disincentives for deans to make difficult decisions.
This structure makes managing programs, class schedules and assignments much more difficult
because senior administrators have little ability to hold individuals accountable or make any
significant changes in the way the college functions. This has led to a weakened and ineffective
management role in the administration of the instructional program.
Department Chair Council (DCC)
CCSF is unique in that its board of trustees has recognized the department chair council (DCC)
as the sole and exclusive representative of the supervisory employees in positions enumerated
in the Equal Employment Relations Board decision HO-R-48, case No. SF-R-509-525, dated
California Community Colleges ChanCellor’s offiCe — City College of san franCisCo
48
administrative structure
December 22, 1977. As a result, department chairs operate under their own collective bargaining
agreement even though they are faculty. This is not common in community colleges.
Salaries, benefits and leave rights for academic supervisors are in accordance with CCSF’s
collective bargaining agreement with AFT Local 2121. However, the agreement with the DCC
contains the additional provisions summarized below, which have cost implications for CCSF:
• Forty percent (40%) of a full-time load (i.e., six units of paid reassigned time) shall be
granted to the Association.
• The base salary of department chairpersons is in accordance with the applicable
provisions of CCSF’s contract with AFT Local 2121. Hours or days worked in excess of
the work year shall be by mutual agreement between a department chairperson and his or
her immediate dean. Department chairpersons serve on one of the instructional calendars
for scheduled academic employees as contained in the current contract between CCSF
and AFT Local 2121.
• Department chairpersons are paid a stipend that ranges from $3,359 per year for a first
year supervisor who is reassigned from three units of classroom teaching to $21,157 per
year for a supervisor with nine or more years of service who is reassigned from 13.5 units.
The total annual cost of the stipends for 64 department chairpersons effective fall 2012 is
$674,511.
• In addition to the stipend, the collective bargaining agreement sets out the formula
for determining the amount of reassigned time for each department chairperson. The
amount of reassigned time is based on a department’s weekly student contact hours or its
number of full-time equivalent faculty (FTEF). The current amount of reassigned time
ranges from three units to 13.5 units per semester. The reassigned time totals 29.4 FTEF
and its cost, based on the cost of temporary part-time faculty teaching courses that the
department chairpersons would otherwise have taught, is estimated to be $2,355,733 for
fiscal year 2012-13.
• Reassigned units in addition to those in the formula for reassigned time, known as extra
specific reassigned units (ESRUs), may be granted at the discretion of the appropriate
vice chancellor following joint union-management recommendations or independent
recommendations to the vice chancellor based on the evaluation of requests submitted
by current or outgoing supervisors. Currently a minimum of 75 reassigned units are
guaranteed for the life of the agreement. The reassigned time totals 20.76 FTEF and has
an estimated annual cost of $1,663,436 based on the cost of the temporary part-time
faculty needed to teach courses for faculty who are on reassigned time.
• The DCC contract provides 6.69 FTEF of reassigned time that shall be worked by
coordinators to fulfill supervisory duties and responsibilities in business, English as a
second language (ESL), and transitional studies. The annual cost of this reassigned time
is $536,050.
• To request additional reassigned time for coordination with respective departments,
department chairs may use the same process that they use to request other additional
reassigned time.

Recommendations
FCMAT understands that many of the recommendations for administrative structure have collective
bargaining agreement implications. These recommendations may also result in a cost savings, but
their more important purpose is to give CCSF the ability to assert proper control over its instructional
program.
CCSF should:
1. Clearly define and communicate the roles, responsibilities and expectations
of management personnel. Executive staff and the board should take steps to
empower managers and support them, and managers should be held account-
able for their performance.
2. Ensure that the governing board and the chancellor clarify the advisory nature
and role of committees and reaffirm management’s role and responsibility to
make final decisions.
3. Consider and implement an administrative structure that will eliminate the
redundancy in the roles of the department chair and dean positions.
4. Consider reducing the number of department chairs by collapsing and
restructuring the assignment of disciplines and reducing the positions’ role in
oversight of the instructional program.
5. Strengthen the roles and responsibilities of the deans, particularly in the
administration of the instructional program, and require greater account-
ability through performance evaluations.
6. Review and revise the evaluation process so that it does not create disincen-
tives for the deans to make difficult decisions.
7. Ensure that managers exercise their right to assign part-time faculty in disci-
plines as appropriate and in accord with the AFT collective bargaining agree-
ment. Ensure that these assignments are less than 50% (7.5 units in credit
and 12.5 units in noncredit instruction) to mitigate the cost of district-paid
health benefits.
8. Evaluate the cost and operational effectiveness of the department chair struc-
ture so that decisions can be made to reduce or eliminate expenditures in this
area.

Senior Administrative Turnover
There has been turnover in every senior administrative position except the vice chancellor for
finance and administration. Four of the five vice chancellors are interim appointments, as is
the chancellor. Several management positions are vacant, and these duties have been reassigned
to incumbent administrators. Stability is needed. Interviews revealed that decisions that have
serious financial implications are often made but that no one is accountable for those decisions.
Ultimately the governing board and the chancellor must provide leadership and serve as the final
authority for important decisions. Fixing the immediate budget problem is imperative, but both
the immediate remedy and sustained change depend on recognizing and addressing factors that
contribute to poor decisions and a lack of accountability.
Employee Contracts
The cost of employee contracts has increased through a succession of chancellors. A number
of the contract provisions mentioned in this report were added without any consideration of
CCSF’s ability to pay for them in the future. As a result, CCSF is facing potential insolvency,
which could end the organization’s existence.
The civil service structure under which CCSF operates is the same as that of the City of San
Francisco and is established and maintained in accord with Education Code section 88137.
This has both benefits and drawbacks. CCSF is the only community college in California that
operates under this structure, which can make creating and managing the classified workforce
difficult, especially in times of fiscal crisis, because CCSF often does not have control over who is
placed in positions.
Culture
Interviewees consistently expressed the opinion that CCSF has for many years operated based
on power, influence and political influences rather than reason, logic and fairness. Interviewees
indicated that CCSF’s focus and purpose, which should be serving the students of the greater
San Francisco community, has been inconsistent and is not the basis for decision making. Rather,
the emphasis has been on keeping people employed and ensuring that they receive benefits,
which is a positive goal but should not usurp the purpose of any college district, which is to
serve students. CCSF’s decisions have diminished the resources available to achieve its primary
purpose.
Past decisions have reduced the management team’s organizational leadership role. For example,
determining how many classified employees are needed and what services are required should be
a management function, but at CCSF this type of decision is made by a committee. It is unclear
why this is the case, though responsibility for this diminished role is attributable largely to the
previous chancellors and boards. This has been costly to CCSF.
Under this organizational and cultural model there is a lack of responsibility or accountability
because it is often unclear how or by whom decisions have been made. This has resulted in opera-
tional dysfunction, which in turn has contributed to fiscal deficiencies.
During interviews, FCMAT was provided verbal information regarding certain practices;
however, because of FCMAT’s limited time in the district and the expedited timeline for this
study, FCMAT was not able to verify the comments with documented examples of these prac-
tices. The following comments are included because they are common themes reiterated inde-
California Community Colleges ChanCellor’s offiCe — City College of san franCisCo
52
barriers to fiscal solvency
pendently in numerous interviews, but they have not been verified by documentation. Follow-up
should be considered that would help to either verify or eliminate these perceptions.
• Although CCSF has position control, it does not function the way it was designed,
which is to ensure proper checks and balances and to segregate duties. Rather, it is used
more as a second form of employee identification.
• Employees are hired under grants with the understanding that at the end of the grant
their employment with CCSF will end. However, the costs associated with their positions
are routinely moved to and paid from the unrestricted general fund when the grant funds
are depleted. This has been made difficult to track, in part because of the incomplete use
of position control as indicated above.
• Rather than delivering instruction in the most economical fashion, CCSF’s practice
appears to be to hire as many employees as possible, provide them with benefits and
avoid terminating them.
• Access to information is limited in order to achieve power and control.
• Individuals have learned that making friends is the only way to get things done.
• Individuals have learned that there are no consequences for poor service or performance.
• Budget development and processes are not made entirely clear and are not well
understood.
Information Technology
Throughout this review, including interviews, FCMAT learned that CCSF is not using the
Banner information system’s full capabilities. This is in part because earlier versions of the Banner
system were customized, which has hindered the ability to upgrade to newer releases. With
the Banner version currently in use, CCSF has not captured or tracked important information
related to costs at off-site locations or comprehensive enrollment management. In addition,
personnel do not seem familiar with the system and do not appear to have the access needed to
carry out management responsibilities.

Recommendations
CCSF should:
1. Closely monitor staff hired under grants and ensure that their employment
does not continue when the grant funding is reduced or eliminated unless
there is a complete discussion and agreement that the benefits of continuing
employment outweigh the costs to CCSF.
2. Consider changing its approach to budget development and resource alloca-
tion, and creating incentives for good budget management.
3. Investigate the possibility of eliminating Education Code Section 88137,
which puts CCSF within Civil Service. CCSF is the only community college
in the State of California so designated.
4. Increase access to the information needed to carry out management respon-
sibilities, and train personnel how to best use data. Consider surveying
managers to determine what data is needed and then establishing the proper
levels of access in the Banner software application.

Solvency
Next Steps and Proposed Timeline
CCSF will need to closely review the information in this report and implement those recom-
mendations with which it agrees. For recommendations it does not implement, CCSF will need
to develop alternate ideas and actions to maintain solvency. Because of its perilous fiscal condition
and the charge it faces from the accreditation commission, it is urgent that CCSF act quickly.
Implementation Timeline
Step Date Action
A September 2012 District receives report and recommendations.
It is anticipated that the recommendations will affect a number of areas.
Some will be easier to implement than others. Some may not be accepted or
acted upon by CCSF.
B Late September 2012
Given differing levels of complexity, the recommendations should be catego-
rized into those that can be acted upon quickly and those needing more time
to develop. An action plan should be developed.
Each recommendation should have an approximate value assigned (where
C Early October 2012
appropriate) as estimated by CCSF.
Once steps B and C are completed, CCSF should organize the list of recom-
D Early October 2012
mendations in order of priority.
At this point CCSF must be prepared to take action sufficient to sustain itself
E Mid-October 2012 fiscally. Formal board action may be warranted to establish a clear under-
standing of CCSF’s intent.
Organizational and operational recommendations included in steps C, D, and
E above should be considered at the same time, if possible, especially if they
have fiscal implications. Those that do not can be dealt with over a longer
period of time.
November 2012 to March
F A number of the recommendations regarding organization and operations
2013
are vital to CCSF’s long-term fiscal health. CCSF has both immediate fiscal
circumstances and long-term structural issues to address. Trying to tackle all
of them in a short time makes it very difficult to succeed. That is why orga-
nizing and understanding the recommendations is important.
Staff should complete and present a follow-up report to CCSF, community
G November 2012 to June 2013 and board after the results of the November election are known, as well as
subsequent periodic reports on the status of open items.

options to meet goals and sustain fiscal solvency
CCSF plays an important role in the community it serves and has employees who are dedicated
to the institution and students. Those dedicated employees are essential to the success of the
organization. If the various constituencies approach CCSF’s serious issues sincerely and work
together for the greater health of the organization, then everyone will benefit in the long run.
FCMAT understands that some recommendations in this report will be challenging to imple-
ment but has sought to focus on the organization as a whole. It is in CCSF’s interest to explore
and implement the changes recommended in this report in order to remain fiscally solvent.

Formula FTE ESRU FTE Stipend $ Non-inst FTE Sp 12 Hist F 11 Hist Grant FTE
Formula FTE Contractual, any change requires negotiation, has not changed for decades
Stipend $ Contractual, is set based on the formula reassigned units, any change requires negotiation
ESRU FTE Contractual, but negotiated each year, 20.764 represents a recently negotiated reduction of 14.3%
Non-inst FTE Requested for F 12, majority based on past practice for many years, can be reduced
Sp 12 Hist Spring 2012 dept allocation
F 11 Hist Fall 2011 dept allocation
Grant FTE Various departmental or college grants for numerous activities
Savings
ESRU FTE DCC/VCAA recently negotiated a reduction of 3.7 FTE x $60k/FTE = $222k (already agreed by DCC)
Non-inst FTE 10% overall reduction, not necessarily evenly, would produce 3.5 FTEs x $60k/FTE = $210k
20% overall reduction, not necessarily evenly, would produce 7 FTEs x $60k/FTE = 420k
30% overall reduction, not necessarily evenly, would produce 10.5 FTEs x $60k/FTE = $630k
Note FT inload assignments reduce the load balances liability, PT/PX hourly reduce cost directly
$60k/FTE estimate is an annual figure based on same reductions in spring 2013

a. Complete a fiscal health analysis of the district using the
California Community Colleges Sound Fiscal Management
Self-Assessment Checklist to determinethe district’s current
level offinancial risk.
b. Work with the College to develop a multi-year financial
projection for the current and two subsequent years without
any demonstrated adjustments based on today's economic
forecast to determine the level ofcommitment needed to
sustain the College'sfinancial solvency, recognizing that
this will be a snapshot in time regarding the current financial
situation and used as the baseline for determining the level
of reductions.
c. Determine up to four California community colleges to be
used for benchmark comparisons.
d. Provide findings and recommendations for meeting the
district’s goals. Work with the College to incorporate into
amulti-year projection.
e. Based on benchmark colleges and CCSF's program
priorities, review critical cost variances, including:
1) Review revenue per FTES/cost per FTE,
separated by credit and non-credit
2) Review the faculty obligation and the amount of
reassigned time appropriate for the enrollment,
structure, and budgetof the College
3) Compare managerial positions as reported to
IPEDS, and determine whether administration is
organized effectively and if the staffing levels are
appropriate.
4) Determine the costs and programimpacts of off-site
centers and sites
5) Review the costs of benefits for active employees
compared to those of other colleges
6) Evaluate the college for comparative analysis in
terms of 50% law margins.
7) Review the unrestricted general fund match for
categorical programs and levels of encroachment, if
