FISCAL YEAR 2011-2012 ADOPTED BUDGET

The adopted consolidated budget for the fiscal year 2011-2012 is $6,355,000. The resources include: $2,581,000 from the Joint Resolution-General Fund; $1,700,000 from Special Appropiations-General Fund and $2,074,000 from Revenues from Internal Sources.

Operational costs reflect a decrease of $243,000, in comparison with the resources assigned for the fiscal year 2010-2011. This is due to a reduction in payroll resulting from the implementation of an employee retirement program and other cost control measures.

Resources from the Joint Resolution-General Fund and from Revenues from Internal Sources generated by the sale of tickets, sales of food and beverages and the rental of the performance halls will be used to defray the operational expenses of the Agency.
