Bill > HB4095

This bill makes several changes to how semi-independent state agencies operate, primarily by bringing them under more standard state financial and administrative processes. It removes exemptions for these agencies from certain laws related to budgets, fiscal matters, and state agency operations, meaning they will now generally follow the same rules as other state agencies regarding these areas. The bill also establishes new dedicated funds for several specific boards and commissions, such as the Appraiser Certification and Licensure Board and the State Board of Architect Examiners, into which their collected fees and revenues will be deposited and continuously appropriated for their specific purposes. Additionally, it repeals certain existing statutes related to how these agencies manage their funds and operations, and it makes conforming amendments to various other laws to reflect these changes, including those related to the Oregon Tourism Commission, Travel Information Council, and Oregon Film and Video Office, ensuring they also align with the new framework.
