Budget Act
South Dakota · Public Fiscal Administration · §§ 4-7-1 to 4-7-9 · 61 sections
Overview
The Budget Act governs how a state prepares, enacts, and administers its annual operating and long-term capital improvement budgets. It prescribes the contents of the executive's annual budget report — including the salaries of specified officials and the compensation and expenses of members of state boards, councils, and advisory bodies — provides for legislative adoption of a financial plan for each year, and vests the Governor with general budgetary powers, including approval of salaries set by agencies under gubernatorial control. It also creates a central budget bureau within the executive branch to analyze proposed legislation and pursue operational economies, a fee-funded budgetary accounting service agency, and reserve funds that receive transfers of unobligated cash and may be drawn on only with legislative authorization.
