SUMMARY
Synopsis of Bill
Senate Bill 706 appropriates $42.0 from the general fund to the New Mexico Office of Indian Affairs for the development and implementation of a community-based youth leadership program in the community of Tohatchi.
Significant Issues
According to the agency, Tohatchi, a Navajo Nation community, is a small community and lacks resources and programs their youth need. This appropriation would add to the community's resources for serving its youth.
FISCAL IMPLICATIONS
The appropriation of $42.0 contained in this bill is a recurring expense to the general fund. Any unexpended or unencumbered balance remaining at the end of fiscal year 2002 shall revert to the general fund.
