Ducey's Budget Promises Hard Look at Government

Ducey's proposed budget cuts the appropriation for the Maricopa County Community College District by more than 50 percent.

For this year, the 10-college district received about $7.4 million for its operating budget — less than 1 percent of its revenue. That reduction was partly because enrollment has declined. The colleges also received an extra $1.4 million specifically for science, technology, engineering and math programs.

Ducey's budget cuts the operating appropriation to $3.3 million and the STEM allotment to about $700,000.
