SB129

Senate Bill 129 is an appropriations act that establishes the authorized number of regular employees and sets the maximum annual salary rates for the University of Arkansas at Monticello for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2026. The bill outlines various administrative, academic, IT, public safety, and support staff positions and their corresponding maximum pay scales. By setting these caps, the General Assembly authorizes the university to allocate funds for staffing and operational expenses within these defined limits. The legislation does not mandate specific hiring but provides the legal framework for the university's personnel budget for the specified fiscal year. It is a standard budgetary measure typical of the state's biennial or annual legislative process for higher education institutions.
