| 1: | | Title: | | | | Volume/Number: | | | | Issuing Agency: | | | | Description: | the Fiscal Year 2006 Capital Budget, which reflects a fiscally prudent approach toward stewardship of taxpayer dollars and targets scarce capital resources to strategic priorities such as job creation, education, the environment, and public safety. This budget makes the tough choices needed to help get the state back on track. It is designed to be affordable within resources available to pay for the states capital program. I have chosen to squeeze the system, rather than raise taxes on working people, in order to pay for our priorities. But we continue to craft budgets that reflect and protect the priorities of the people of Illinois. This capital budget targets a greater proportion of our investment dollars than ever toward schools across the state. My Opportunity Returns program supports economic development in every corner of the state, as well as the transportation infrastructure that underpins the states economy. In addition, I am dedicating ten percent of spending supported from new revenues available for capital, to investments that assure a healthy environment for our children and for future generations. | | | Date Created: | 02 14 2005 | | | Agency ID: | | | | ISL ID: | 000000000568 Original UID: 624 FIRST WORD: FY | |
