Senator Valde Garcia addressed the board: Garcia – The budget for the
next fiscal year has passed without an increase in taxes. It does
preserve revenue sharing and may even allow for a slight increase. A
proposal by the governor will take one billion dollars and allow
investment in the private sector – to stimulate economic activity and
growth. It is also our goal to diversify job growth within the state so
that we no longer rely solely on the automotive industry for our
economy. We plan to sell tobacco settlement dollars and issue bonds for
economic diversification.
The regular meeting of the board was adjourned at 7:00 p.m.
