2015-17 Biennial Budget Request

As part of our commitment to transparency, we are providing information on our 2015-17 Biennial Budget Proposal submitted to the Office of Financial Management (OFM). This is just the first step in the budget process. Next, OFM will take this and similar information from across state government and create what are known as the Governor's Book 1 and Book 2 budgets.

The Governor is required by law to develop a "Book 1" budget that balances with no new revenue. You may know that the Governor instructed all state agencies to identify, describe and prioritize budget reductions equal to 15 percent of unprotected general-fund state. These reduction proposals provide the Governor with as many options as possible in meeting his statutory budget responsibility. Agencies may then submit prioritized budget proposals that identify, in ranked order, which reductions they propose restoring and any new funding requests.

The Book 2 budget will support current or new programs with some new revenues, which will be released in December. After this process is complete, the Legislature will begin its work on the state budget.
