Budget Preparation
The University of Hawaii strategic planning process provides the direction and the focus for the budget development process. Strategic planning drives the development of a Budget Policy Paper that is issued by the University President during the biennium budget cycle. The policy paper sets forth the environmental context for budget building, the general program policy and management objectives, and the institutional priorities that guide the preparation of the biennium budget.
Strategic planning and budget development are closely linked processes at the University of Hawaii Community Colleges (UHCC). Budget priorities are established based on the achievement and advancement of strategic planning goals. Oversight to the process is provided by the Community Colleges Strategic Planning Council (SPC). The SPC is the primary body for ensuring systemwide participation in the UHCC strategic planning process.
The UHCC Strategic Planning Directions 2015-2021 are available for viewing here.
The UHCCs prepares a biennial operating budget for consideration by the Legislature when it convenes in regular session during every odd-numbered year. A supplemental budget to amend any current appropriation in a fiscal biennium may also be prepared and submitted to the Legislature when it convenes in regular session in even-numbered years.
