Funding is provided to contract for additional analysis needed before the board can replace its obsolete database system with a hybrid solution that leverages existing state systems with a cloud-based system.

Funding is provided for wage increases for state employees who are not represented by a union or who are covered by a bargaining agreement that is not subject to financial feasibility determination. It is sufficient for a general wage increase of 3 percent, effective July 1, 2019, and a general wage increase of 3 percent, effective July 1, 2020.
