ARIZONA STATE SENATE
Fifty-Seventh Legislature, Second Regular Session
ENACTED
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

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.

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. Prohibits the state from facilitating fundraising or establishing a state fund for the deposit of monies.
