Title: Tuskegee University, appropriation
Summary: HB413 provides a $9.41 million Education Trust Fund appropriation to Tuskegee University for 2011-2012, with special funding status and mandatory planning and reporting before and during funding.
What This Bill Does
Authorizes a total appropriation of $9,412,870 from the Education Trust Fund to Tuskegee University for the institution's educational program for the fiscal year ending September 30, 2012, with at least $1,372,148 allocated for the agricultural research and extension service state match. Treats Tuskegee University with a unique funding status reflecting its private and state-related role, rather than funding it as a typical private school or as a public state university. Restricts release of funds to conditions: an operations plan and an audited financial statement must be submitted prior to release; requires quarterly expenditure and progress reports and an end-of-year performance report; and copies of required reports must be sent to the Joint Fiscal Committee.

Tuskegee University: receives the appropriation and must prepare and submit planning and financial reports, plus ongoing performance reports tied to funding.
