AI Summary
This bill removes the requirement that the State Fire Marshal and the State Fire Academy be funded by appropriations from the General Fund. Instead, the expenses of these agencies will be defrayed by fees, assessments, and other revenues charged for their support, which will be deposited into a separate State Fire Academy Fund. The bill also deletes provisions of law that required certain expenses of the State Fire Marshal and State Fire Academy to be paid from the General Fund. This change provides more flexibility in funding these critical public safety agencies.
