This bill proposes a supplemental appropriation from the unappropriated surplus balance in the State Fund, General Revenue, specifically for the Department of Arts, Culture, and History, Division of Culture and History. It aims to add a new item of appropriation for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025, which includes a capital outlay for repairs and equipment amounting to $500,000. The bill is based on the Governor's Executive Budget Document, which indicates that there is an available surplus in the Treasury for this fiscal year.
The new legal language inserted into the current law specifies the fund number (0293), fiscal year (2025), and organization (0432) associated with this appropriation. The bill emphasizes the need for this additional funding to support the activities and operations of the Division of Culture and History during the specified fiscal year.
