DEVELOPMENT SCFD

Funding

CCA continues to qualify as a “Tier

II” Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD) grant recipient. SCFD distributes funds from a 1/10 of 1% sales and use tax to cultural facilities throughout the seven-county Denver metropolitan area.

Tier II organizations

receive SCFD funding based on two equal factors: 1) qualifying annual income that meets a defined threshold, and 2) paid attendance.

CCA’s SCFD

funding typically totals between $700 and $850K per year.

FINANCIAL OVERVIEW

REPORTING

At each regularly scheduled board meeting, CCA staff present monthly financial statements that compare the most recent actual results with the current budget and the prior year. These statements typically include an income statement, balance sheet, cash flow statement, reserve analysis and an update on capital spending.

In June or July, staff also begins "reforecasting" the entire year. Monthly results are then compared with the most recent reforecast, as well as the annual budget.

The Finance Committee reviews the financial statements and directs any questions and/or concerns to staff before the statements go to the full board, where they are reviewed again.

Each year, staff also prepares an Annual Report for the City of Boulder and an Annual Report for the Membership.
