The budget contains a base adjustment which moves $187,500 in General Fund support from trustee and benefit payments to operating expenditures. This change will allow the commission better oversight and fiscal accountability by allowing for technical assistance contracts with the Association of Soil Conservation Districts instead of individual districts. The total funding for technical assistance remains unchanged.
