House Bill 3511 proposes to supplement and amend the appropriations of public funds 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, for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2025. The bill includes new items of appropriation, which are intended to enhance the funding available for current expenses and capital improvements within the division. The total appropriations for the fiscal year 2025 will include $13,099 for current expenses and $66,100 for capital improvements, with the overall funding amounting to $356,819 and $2,635,388 respectively.

The bill is based on the Governor's Executive Budget Document, which outlines the available cash balance and revenue estimates for the fiscal year 2025. It also reflects the Governor's recommendation to utilize remaining General Revenue funds from previous fiscal years, contributing to the unappropriated surplus balance available for appropriation. The new appropriations are aimed at ensuring that the Division of Culture and History can effectively utilize these funds for its operations and projects during the specified fiscal year.
