This bill proposes a supplementary appropriation of public funds from the unappropriated balance in the Department of Commerce, specifically for the Division of Natural Resources' State Parks and Recreation Endowment Fund (fund 3211) for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. The Governor has confirmed that there is an available balance for expenditure, which the bill seeks to appropriate. The total appropriation for this fund will be increased to support the designated spending unit during the specified fiscal year.
The bill outlines specific increases in appropriations, including a current expenses allocation of $25,000 and an allocation for other assets amounting to $6,500,000. These adjustments are intended to enhance the financial resources available for the Division of Natural Resources, thereby supporting state parks and recreational activities in West Virginia.
