ARIZONA STATE SENATE

Fifty-Seventh Legislature, Second Regular Session

 

FACT SHEET FOR S.B. 1843

 

management; state properties; 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.

S.B. 1843 contains the budget reconciliation provisions for changes relating to state properties.

Provisions

1.   Continues to set the Capital Outlay Stabilization Fund square-footage rental rates for
state-owned buildings at $17.87 for office space and $6.43 for storage space in FY 2027.

2.   Becomes effective on the general effective date.
