Plan A with some details

Here is the plan that was shared with the Board Monday night.

Plan A is prior to serious discussions with various employee groups. We needed to tell people that we were talking about their jobs prior to discussing them publically. Feel free so send me questions or ideas.

Budget Reductions

Last week was not pleasant and this week is also difficult for the Whitko family as we wrestle with the changes forced by reductions in State support. I know many questions have and will come up as we think of the impact this will have. Please email me any questions you have. steve.clason@whitko.org

Right now we want those affected to have the grace to deal with the impact on their lives. Then we can plan further.

Two plans exist regarding reductions. It needs to be reiterated these are plans just that. Many things can change in the next week and certainly by August. Neither of these plans are set in stone and both are based on we can do this with the knowledge we have today. Things like retirements, voluntary leaves, salary changes, and income changes all impact the depth of these cuts and are unknown at this time.


Some details of Plans A and B will be on this Blog most likely Wednesday. There are still a few people impacted that have not been notified. Once everyone is notified we will share the details so everyone knows the affects of these reductions and how we are working to overcome some of those affects.



Thanks to all that have been praying for us as we adjust to the reductions in state support.
