SB436

Senate Bill 436 seeks to amend existing Arkansas law regarding the administrative capacities of various state-funded institutions of higher education. Specifically, the bill increases the statutory limit on the number of new or additional personnel positions for Arkansas Tech University, National Park College, and the Division of Agriculture of the University of Arkansas. Additionally, the legislation increases the maximum number of authorized passenger motor vehicles for several institutions, including Arkansas State University-Mountain Home, National Park College, Arkansas State University Three Rivers, the University of Arkansas Community College at Rich Mountain, Southeast Arkansas College, and Southern Arkansas University-Magnolia. The purpose of these adjustments is to update administrative authorizations to match the operational needs of these specific higher education institutions.
