Fifty-Sixth Legislature, First Regular Session
VETOED
FACT SHEET FOR S.B. 1533/H.B. 2580
state buildings; management; 2023-2024.
Purpose
Makes session law changes relating to the management of state buildings necessary to
implement the FY 2024 state budget.
Background
The Arizona Constitution prohibits substantive law from being included in the general
appropriations, capital outlay appropriations and supplemental appropriations bills. However, it is
often necessary to make statutory and session law changes to effectuate the budget. Thus, separate
bills called budget reconciliation bills (BRBs) are introduced to enact these provisions. Because
BRBs contain substantive law changes, the Arizona Constitution provides that they become
effective on the general effective date, unless an emergency clause is enacted.
S.B. 1533 contains the budget reconciliation provisions for changes relating to state
buildings.
Provisions
1. Continues to set the Capital Outlay Stabilization Fund square-footage rental rates for
state-owned buildings at $17.87 for office space and $6.43 for storage space in FY 2024.
2. Becomes effective on the general effective date.
Governor's Veto Message
The Governor indicates in her veto message that S.B. 1533, and the FY 2024 state budget
as a whole, does not address her priorities to work together on a budget that addresses the state's
housing crisis, lowers costs, prepares the workforce and invests in public education.
