Legislative Appropriations Request 2010-2011

Legislative Appropriations Request

Each institution of higher education drafts a Legislative Appropriations Request (LAR) which forms the basis for the funding items which it wants to be considered. Included are requests for debt service on approved construction and special items, which are usually major research initiatives.

In recent years, universities and other agencies were told that they could request for the upcoming biennium no more than a certain percentage of what they had received in the current biennium. However, any university can seek additional funds by including "exceptional item requests" in the LAR or by presenting its case directly to members of the Legislature.
