Report of the House Appropriations Subcommittee on

Special Projects

House Bill 29 & House Bill 30

February 20, 2000 Respectfully Submitted by the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Special Projects:

______V. Earl Dickinson, Co-Chairman

______Vincent F. Callahan, Jr., Co-Chairman REPORT OF THE SUBCOMMITTEE on SPECIAL PROJECTS

Mr. Chairmen and Members of the Committee:

The Special Projects Subcommittee reviewed project requests totaling $134 million for historic landmarks and nonstate agencies.

We recognize the value of these organizations to the Commonwealth. The investment of some state funds in these cultural attractions and educational organizations is a sound move to bolster economic development and education in . Last year, a number of organizations did not receive the full amount of funding that was appropriated to them by the 1999 General Assembly. Consequently, the Subcommittee recommends spending $10.5 million to restore the funding for these organizations in House Bill 29.

In addition, we offer for your consideration increased funding of $25.9 million for historic landmarks and nonstate agencies in the 2000-2002 biennium, above the introduced budget. Finally, an amendment is included which restores the budget bill language on eligibility for funding to that currently contained in the Code of Virginia. We ask the Committee to adopt our recommendations. House Bill 29 Amendments
