Governor's transmittal letter dated January 17: Dear President Giessel: Under the authority of Article III, Section 18, of the Alaska Constitution, I am transmitting a bill relating to the State’s capital budget for Fiscal Year (FY) 2021. This budget utilizes $135.6 million in Unrestricted General Funds (UGF), $75.5 million in Designated General Funds (DGF), and $52.7 million in Other State Funds to leverage $1.1 billion in Federal Funds. The FY 2021 proposed capital budget makes important investments in projects that generate economic activity for our State, provides matching funds for federal transportation, water and sewer programs, and funds deferred maintenance programs for aging State assets. The 2020-01-21 Senate Journal Page 1521 FY 2021 capital budget also supports housing and energy efficiency programs to assist Alaska families, and proposes important resources for the men and women of law enforcement to fulfill their duty to keep our communities safe. I look forward to working with the Legislature to produce a FY 2021 capital budget for Alaska. Sincerely, /s/ Mike Dunleavy Governor
