2003 Senate Bill 277 ↩

Senate Roll Call 106: Passed

The Senate version of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2003-2004 State Police budget. (Note: Gov. Jennifer Granholm’s proposed budget for this department is <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2003-SB-319">Senate Bill 319 </a>.) This appropriates $391.9 million in adjusted gross spending (funded from all sources, including state restricted fund and federal pass-through dollars, minus interdepartmental transfers), compared to $396.3 million, which was the FY 2002-2003 amount enrolled in 2002, excluding any supplemental appropriations, line-item vetoes, or later cuts. Of this, $231.2 million will come from the General Fund (funded by actual state tax revenues), compared to the FY 2002-2003 amount enrolled in 2002 of $287.0 million. The Senate version does not recognize $12.5 million in revenue from new fire service fees on property insurance premiums proposed by the governor.
