Department of Economic Development

 

 

 

The Executive Budget recommends (analysis as of January 27, 2004):

 

·                    An FTE level of 219 on 3/31/05, which represents no change to the estimated 3/31/04 FTE level.

·                    Recommends a State Operations increase of $4.895 million in the Department’s All Funds appropriation.  This reflects an increase of $5.5 million in the Marketing and Advertising Program (General Fund –maintenance undistributed) and a decrease of ($121,000) and ($494,000) in the Administration and Economic Development programs (both General Funds).

·                    The Executive Budget Overview refers to a New Manufacturing Assistance Program (MAP) to be administered by the Empire State Development Corporation (ESDC) to coordinate Federal, State and local assistance programs and link manufacturing companies to appropriate research and development grant funding.  ESDC’s proposed budget lacks the specificity necessary to determine whether any additional funding is associated with this proposal.  PEF’s position is that such a program should be administered and staffed by the professional employees who work in the Department of Economic Development.
