Bill > S1172

This bill relates to the appropriation for the Idaho Department of Commerce for fiscal year 2026, specifically addressing funding for the Broadband Office Program. The bill adds $140,900 from the General Fund to the Department of Commerce's Broadband Office Program for personnel costs, while simultaneously reducing the same amount from the Commerce Program for the same period of July 1, 2025, through June 30, 2026. This appears to be a budgetary realignment that shifts funding within the department, likely to support specific personnel needs in the Broadband Office. The bill includes an emergency clause, which means it will go into effect immediately on July 1, 2025, allowing for prompt implementation of the funding adjustment. The emergency declaration suggests that the funding reallocation is time-sensitive or crucial for the department's operations during the upcoming fiscal year.
