AMENDED

FACT SHEET FOR
H.B. 4167/S.B. 1860

state properties;
management; 2026-2027

Purpose

Makes session
law changes relating to the management of state properties necessary to
implement the FY 2027 state budget.

Background

The Arizona
Constitution prohibits substantive law from being included in the general
appropriations, capital outlay appropriations and supplemental appropriations
bills. However, it is often necessary to make statutory and session law changes
to effectuate the budget. Thus, separate bills called budget reconciliation
bills (BRBs) are introduced to enact these provisions. Because BRBs contain
substantive law changes, the Arizona Constitution provides that they become
effective on the general effective date, unless an emergency clause is enacted.

H.B. 4167 contains
the budget reconciliation provisions for changes relating to state properties.

Provisions

Continues to set the Capital Outlay Stabilization Fund square-footage

address of the real property;

b)

square footage of the real property;

c)

purchase price of the real property; and

d)

name
of the fund in which the proceeds from the sale of the real property are being
deposited.

3.

Authorizes the Legislative Council to provide for the placement of a
commemorative plaque that recognizes the service of the Arizona America 250
Commission (Commission) in the Governmental Mall.

4.

Allows
the Commission commemorative plaque to include:

a)

the names of the members who served on the Commission; and

b)

the
years of the members' service on the Commission.

5.

Applies the statutory procedures for monuments and memorials within the
Governmental Mall to the establishment of the plaque.

6.

Prohibits the use of public monies for the costs of the plaque.

7.

Specifies that all fundraising and contracts for the artistic design and
construction of the memorial are the sole responsibility of the proponents.

8.

state fund for the deposit of monies.
