Executive Council adopts OPPOSE position on SB 1063

May 18, 2017 / PSU-AAUP

5/18/17 OPPOSE SB 1063: Declares policy of state to use zero-based budgeting in developing biennial budget plan. Requires state agencies to include information justifying proposed expenditures in agency re- quest budgets filed with Oregon Department of Administrative Services. Applies to biennia beginning on or after July 1, 2019.

Rationale: It requires departments to start from zero and to provide a justification for every line item of their budget. We believe that this will cost the state money in administrative time and is burdensome.
