Sponsor: Representative Cobb (with permission of committee on Rules), LD 5
Overview
Contains provisions relating to the management of state buildings needed to implement the FY 2023 budget.
History
The Arizona Legislature adopts a budget for each fiscal year that contains general appropriations. Article IV, Section 20, Part 2, Constitution of Arizona, requires the General Appropriations Act (feed bill) to contain only appropriations for the different state departments, state institutions, public schools and interest on public debt. Statutory changes necessary to reconcile the appropriations made in the feed bill and other changes are drafted into separate budget bills. These bills are prepared according to subject area.
