Budget Highlights |
The Division of Military and Naval Affairs (DMNA) supports a military force ready to respond to civil emergencies and natural disasters at the call of the Governor. National Guard troops are also available for national service at the call of the President. DMNA General Fund spending primarily covers the administration and operational expenses of the State's 60 armories and an estimated 18,000 New York based National Guard troops. DMNA is also charged, through the State Emergency Management Office, with the coordination of the State's response to natural and man-made disasters. This agency is included in the Public Protection and General Government budget bill. The Executive recommends an All Funds appropriation of $378,644,000, which reflects a net increase of $287,400,000 over the current year spending level. This appropriation reflects a decrease of $1,105,000 in State Operations and an increase of $267,205,000 in Aid to Localities and $21,300,000 in Capital Projects. The Executive recommends the closure of nine armories. This action will result in the elimination of 3 FTE positions, which will be achieved through attrition in State Fiscal Year (SFY) 2003-04. State Operations The Governor proposes a General Fund appropriation of $16,682,000 for SFY 2003-04, representing a net decrease of $1,768,000 or 9.58 percent below the current year. This decrease reflects the following actions:
Aid To Localities The Executive recommends a new General Fund appropriation of $60,000,000 and a new $200,000,000 Special Revenue Funds-Federal appropriation for disaster relief efforts including costs incurred by State and local agencies responding to natural and man made crises. The Executive also recommends appropriations of $11,600,000 in Special Revenue Funds-Federal and $2,850,000 in Special Revenue Funds-Other for the support of radiological emergency preparedness planning, reflecting an increase of $6,100,000 and $1,200,000, respectively. The Executive eliminates $95,000 in Legislative initiatives from SFY 2002-03. Capital Projects The Governor recommends Capital Projects appropriations of $40,600,000 reflecting a $21,300,000 increase in funding from the current year. Almost $28,700,000 of the appropriation will support a recently announced seven year Federal military construction plan to replace or expand armories and equipment maintenance facilities across the State. The balance of the funds will support the continuation of the Division's maintenance and rehabilitation projects at armories across the State. Article VII The Executive proposes Article VII legislation which will expand designated acceptable uses of surplus State armories that are transferred to local municipalities to include government purposes. The Executive also proposes legislation that will make permanent the practice of depositing all revenues derived from rentals of armories into the armory rental account to offset operating costs of its facilities. |
