The Bureau of Budget coordinates and prepares
the department’s
Legislative Budget Requests (LBR) and provides
technical assistance and support for the development of the
Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) and Long
Range Program Plan (LRPP) in accordance to the
instructions provided by the Executive Office of the Governor
(EOG), House of Representatives and Senate. Throughout the
legislative appropriations process the Bureau of Budget is
available to assist EOG, the House and Senate Appropriations
staff on technical issues affecting the agency’s budget request,
provides responses to budgetary inquiries and issues that might
arise during the legislative session and tracks all funding
decisions through the Conference process.
Once the Governor signs the Conference Report,
the appropriations for the new fiscal year is established and
becomes the
General Appropriations Act (GAA). The Budget
Office develops and allocates the
Annual Approved Operating Budget (AOB) to the
different program areas within the agency and provides support
and technical assistance throughout the fiscal year by
monitoring and managing expenditures and preparing interim
budget adjustments, as necessary to ensure that the Department
does not exceed its authorized budget levels. The Bureau is also
responsible for managing the cash and balancing all trust funds
authorized by the Legislature and preparing all state and
federal reports.
