10. Lottery Revenue Facts Originally, lottery funds were available for any use in the operating/capital budget. We received, on average, $1,750,000 that we split between operating and capital. For the current year budget (2009-10), the state shifted some programs (Regional SPED, Career and Technical, Summer School) to be paid from lottery funds. This “earmarking” of funds reduced Lottery available for operating/capital to $700,000. Approximately $1,000,000 was supplanted. Projected for 2010-11 is another shift of approximately $300,000, thereby leaving $400,000 of Lottery funds available for operating/capital expenses.

11. Altogether, RCPS has a potential $9,000,000 gap between revenue and expenditures. How do we close this gap?
