HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The Hutchinson Community College Board of Trustees will hold their budget and revenue neutral hearings during Thursday’s monthly meeting.
The board received a preliminary presentation on the 2022-23 Hutchinson Community College budget at its monthly board meeting earlier this summer. The budget totals $ 68.3 million on total taxes levied of $14.7 million. The budget includes a mill levy set at 21.829, the same as the year prior and its lowest level in at least ten years. This is made possible by an expected increase in county valuations. Tuition is slated to remain consistent with 2021-22 while fees will increase by $2.00 per credit hour.
Also Thursday, the board will consider the purchase of the former Homeplate baseball training facility located at 513 W. 5th. The facility has been used by the softball team and will become the indoor training facility for Blue Dragon softball once the purchase is complete. The board will also take action on the purchase of a new nursing patient simulator for the Allied Health Center at a cost of $57,898 by CAE Healthcare.
Thursday’s meeting of the Hutchinson Community College Board of Trustees begins at 7 p.m. at the Shears Technology Center on the HutchCC campus.
