<br />5. B-t-J).3 <br /> <br />Option B is the most conservative option of the new possible options, as it takes 50% of <br />the projected operating 2005/2006 deficit from reserves and 50% in budget reductions; <br />33% from reserves and 67% in budget reductions for 2006/2007, and finally 0% from <br />reserves and 100% in budget reductions for 2007/2008. Option B leaves us with a <br />projected 19% in reserves by the end of 2007/2008. <br /> <br /> Option B <br />Close deficit by Projects 19% Reserve <br />use of: 2005/2006 2006/2007 2007/2008 at June 2008 <br />Reserves 50% 33% 0% <br />BudÇJet reduction 50% 67% 100% <br /> <br />% Cut to all depts 2.41% 0.75% 0.68% <br /> <br />Option C involves taking 67% of the projected operating 2005/2006 deficit from reserves <br />and 33% in budget reductions; 50% from reserves and 50% in budget reductions for <br />2006/2007, and finally 33% from reserves and 67% in budget reductions for 2007/2008. <br />This option leaves us with an anticipated 17% in reserves by the end of 2007/2008. <br /> <br /> Option C <br />Close deficit by Projects 17% Reserve <br />use of: 2005/2006 2006/2007 2007/2008 at June 2008 <br />Reserves 67% 50% 33% <br />BudÇJet reduction 33% 50% 67% <br /> <br />% Cut to all depts 1.64% 0.93% 0.82% <br /> <br />Option D is less conservative of the two new possible options described above (Option B <br />and C), however, it is still more conservative than Council's policy adopted in Jan. 2004. <br />Council's original policy left us with forecasted reserves of 12%, while this option will leave <br />us with a projected 15% reserve. With this option we would take 75% from reserves and <br />make 25% in budget reductions in 2005/2006 and 2006/2007. In 2007/2008, we would take <br />67% from reserves and 33% in budget reductions. <br /> <br /> Option D <br />Close deficit by Projects 15% Reserve <br />use of: 2005/2006 2006/2007 2007/2008 at June 2008 <br />Reserves 75% 75% 67% <br />BudQet reduction 25% 25% 33% <br /> <br />% Cut to all depts 1.21% 0.57% 0.67% <br />
