Bill > HB2115

This bill adds a new section to Arizona state law that limits administrative costs for budget units and political subdivisions receiving public funds. Specifically, the bill stipulates that any government entity receiving public monies may spend no more than 8% of those total funds on administrative expenses, regardless of any existing laws that might previously have allowed for different spending ratios. The term "budget unit" typically refers to a specific governmental department or agency, while "political subdivision" could include entities like counties, cities, school districts, or special districts. This provision aims to control overhead spending and ensure that the majority of public funds are used directly for intended purposes rather than administrative overhead. The bill represents a standard fiscal management approach designed to promote efficiency and cost-effectiveness in government spending by establishing a clear, uniform cap on administrative expenditures.
