Appropriations committee signs off on Abstractors Board of Examiners' small fee‑fund budget
Summary
The Committee on Appropriations approved the Abstractors Board of Examiners' fee‑fund budget for FY2025–FY2027 with a slight FY2027 increase attributed to OITS programming and recurring upgrade charges.
The Committee on Appropriations approved the Abstractors Board of Examiners' fee‑fund budget for fiscal years 2025 through 2027 by voice vote.
Chairman Anderson (Transportation and Public Safety budget) said the agency requested no change for FY2025 and FY2026 from the amount approved by the 2024 legislature—about $25,723 from the Abstractors Board fee fund. For FY2027 the revised estimate increases by $10, attributed to computer programming and supplies; the increase is offset by a decrease in other professional fees. Committee members asked why the board falls under the Transportation budget; Anderson explained budget assignments sometimes reflect workload distribution across committees.
Members also asked about a prior website/OITS upgrade and whether that was a recurring charge; Anderson said the OITS upgrade and associated postage explained the larger jump between 2024 and 2025 and that the OITS charge would be recurring. The committee approved the recommendations by voice vote.
