2005 Senate Bill 274 ↩

House Roll Call 428: Passed

The House-Senate conference report for Fiscal Year (FY) 2005-2006 Department of History, Arts and Libraries budget. This appropriates $53.2 million in adjusted gross spending (funded from all sources, including special state restricted fund and federal pass-through dollars, minus interdepartmental transfers), compared to $57.0 million, which was the FY 2004-2005 amount enrolled in 2004. Of this, $41.8 million will come from the general fund (funded by actual state tax revenues), compared to the FY 2004-2005 amount of $45.8 million. The budget does not reduce spending by $1.5 million on Mackinac Island state park, as the governor had recommended, but instead reduces spending on state libraries by this amount.
