This bill proposes an appropriation of twelve million dollars ($12,000,000) from the general fund to the Department of Environment. The allocated funds are designated for the planning, design, construction, replacement, and improvement of water lines specifically in Curry County. The expenditure is intended to take place over the fiscal years 2026 through 2028.
Additionally, the bill stipulates that any unexpended or unencumbered balance remaining at the end of fiscal year 2028 will revert back to the general fund. This ensures that any funds not utilized for the intended purpose will not remain allocated indefinitely, promoting fiscal responsibility.
