PIERRE, S.D. A recommended state budget for the coming year includes important resources for South Dakota’s public university system, including more money for employee salaries and for critical maintenance and repair of buildings.
The South Dakota Board of Regents on Thursday reviewed Governor Kristi Noem’s budget recommendations for the fiscal year that begins July 1, 2021.
The governor presented her budget plan to legislators earlier this week, and when state lawmakers convene January 11, they will consider her recommendations as they create a final budget for state operations.
“We are glad to see the governor identify essential ‘meat and potatoes’ issues like salary policy and upkeep of state facilities in her budget,” said Brian L. Maher, the regents’ Executive Director and CEO. “We are ready to work closely with Gov. Noem and legislators to address budget priorities.”
