The bill provides an appropriation for the North Dakota Racing Commission to cover its expenses for the biennium from July 1, 2025, to June 30, 2027. It allocates a total of $699,042, which includes a base level enhancement appropriation of $63,755 and a new and vacant FTE pool amounting to $4,953. The total general fund allocation is set at $521,818 after accounting for other funds. The bill also specifies that the racing commission will maintain two full-time equivalent positions.
Additionally, the bill outlines one-time funding items totaling $33,000, which includes $13,000 for copier replacement and $20,000 for internships. It emphasizes that the racing commission cannot spend funds from the new and vacant FTE pool but may request a transfer of those funds to the racing commission line item as needed. This structure aims to ensure proper financial management and reporting to the appropriations committees of the seventieth legislative assembly regarding the use of the one-time funding.
