This bill proposes a supplemental appropriation to the Department of Tourism for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. It aims to add a new item of appropriation to the existing budget, specifically for capital outlay, repairs, and equipment, with a total allocation of $10,000,000 from the unappropriated surplus balance in the State Fund, General Revenue. The bill is based on the Governor's Executive Budget Document, which outlines the available cash balance and revenue estimates for the fiscal year.
The new legal language introduced in the bill includes the designation of the fund as 0293, the fiscal year as 2026, and the organization as 0304. This amendment reflects the state's financial position and the need for additional funding to support the Department of Tourism's initiatives during the specified fiscal year.
