FY15--UAA Capital Budget Request
FY 15 –UAA Facilities Thoughts on
the Building Fund
• Fund not yet established
• UA Rules on how the fund is administered are
under development
• Fund needs to come with “new” money otherwise
we are just moving money around
• Concerned with funding being pulled from FY14
R&R/DM budget to fund UBC
• Concerned that placing some facilities in the fund
and not others will complicate the process
