Budget Highlights
The Executive Budget recommends $2.9 million for the Commission. This is a decrease of $60,000 from the 2011-12 budget. The decrease reflects savings from an anticipated relocation from leased to State-owned space.
The Executive Budget recommends a workforce of 29 FTEs for the Commission which represents no change from the 2011-12 budget.
