Texas State Library and Archives Commission
Legislative Appropriations Request FY2012-2013,
as of August 16, 2010
The 82nd Texas Legislature will convene in January 2011. At that time, they will begin considering the Texas State Library and Archives Commission budget for fiscal years 2012 and 2013. Before they convene, each state agency prepared a Legislative Appropriations Request (LAR).
On this page, you will find the State Library's FY2012-2013 LAR, divided into individual, downloadable sections (due to file size).
The LAR consists of our agency's Base Budget and Exceptional Item Requests. The "base budget" refers to a budget request that is at the lowest level. The state leadership instructed agencies to prepare a base budget at 100 percent of the average amounts in fiscal years 2010-2011. The base budget for the agency totals over $71 million for the biennium; of this, $39.5 million is state general revenue. In addition, they directed each agency to prepare a report on how it would reduce its general revenue by 10 percent; this is Schedule 6.I below. This shows how the agency will cut its budget by $3.95 million over the biennium.
In this budget request, the agency asked for five exceptional items. These totaled about $10.1 million of state general revenue funds for the biennium. We also requested $26.4 million in general obligation bonds for the construction of a new archival storage facility.
