2006 Senate Bill 1081 ↩

Senate Roll Call 802: Passed

The Senate version of the Fiscal Year (FY) 2006-2007 capital outlay budget. The bill appropriates $201.4 million in adjusted gross spending, but authorizes dozens of projects, including 13 university and 22 community college projects, that would likely cost more than $700 million when completed, and would cause the state to exceed the $2.7 billion cap on total state borrowing (see also <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2006-SB-1189">Senate Bill 1189</a>, which would raise this to $4.0 billion). Gov. Jennifer Granholm's most recent proposals for the bill would authorize and additional $501 million in new contruction projects.
