The Fiscal Year 2006 appropriation for the Office of the State Board of Education includes funding for the increased cost of employee health insurance. Nonstandard Adjustments include minor adjustments in building services space charges, risk management fees, State Controller fees, and State Treasurer fees. Also included is an increase of $187,800 in Attorney General fees, which represents an increase of 2,500 hours in the amount of time spent by deputy attorneys general on the Office of the State Board of Education.
Nonstandard Adjustments also include a restoration of $287,100 of the moneys removed from this budget last year, in order to provide more funds for Public Schools. Of this, $220,900 is allocated back to the board’s assessments program, which is the program from which it was taken, while $55,200 was allocated for a position, under the first enhancement request, to provide staff support for the Charter School Commission. The remaining $11,000 is for the operational costs of the Charter School Commission, as stated on the fiscal note that created it. Of the $324,600 that was requested to be restored but is not, $40,600 would have gone towards an additional position in first enhancement, which was not granted, and $284,000 would have gone back into the assessments program. While the money $220,900 restored to the assessments program for FY 2006 provides sufficient cash to meet its needs, the remaining $284,000 will almost certainly need to be restored in FY 2007, after FY 2006 cash balances in federal funds are depleted.
The second enhancement simply increases the board’s federal funds spending authority to reflect the amount of anticipated grants, while the third enhancement, adding a second deputy attorney general for the board’s disposal, has not been granted in this, or the Attorney General’s budget.
