TO AMEND THE LAW CONCERNING PAYMENTS TO LOCALITIES.
SB 327 updates annual payments to the Arkansas State Fair and Livestock Show Association from $710,328 to $887,908 for fiscal years 2025 through 2035. It directly affects the State Fair Association as the recipient of these state funds, which are allocated to support cities and counties. The bill amends existing law to standardize these payments at the new $887,908 amount for each specified fiscal year, replacing older amounts. This is a procedural adjustment to funding levels without altering eligibility or program structure.
