Outlook Projection FY 2023-24
Adding Other High Priority Needs...
Because trust fund balances were used, the projected General Revenue cost of some drivers in
Fiscal Year 2023-24 is significantly less than it would have been. Even without that adjustment,
the Other High Priority Needs drivers would have been the largest expenditure component in
each of the three years of the plan, by far.
The 28 Other High Priority Needs reflect issues that have been funded in most, if not all, of the
recent budget years. Both types of drivers are combined to represent a more complete, yet still
conservative, approach to estimating future expenditures. Essentially, the total projected cost for
the Critical Needs and Other High Priority Needs shows the impact of continuing the programs
and priorities funded in recent years into the three years included in the Outlook.
