Division of Alcohol Beverage Control
The enacted budget makes no changes to the State Operations portion of the Executive Budget (analysis as of April 4, 2005).
The Executive Budget recommends (analysis as of January 27, 2005):
· An estimated 156 FTE positions on March 31, 2006, the same level as in SFY2004-5. It should be noted that the Division has three additional FTEs in the Administration program for SFY2004-05 than proposed in the Executive Budget for SFY2004-05. This is due to the last year’s rejection by the Legislature of the Governor’s proposal to eliminate the State Liquor Authority and close the Syracuse office.
· An All-Funds appropriation for State Operations of slightly more than $63 million, a 10.9% increase over the SFY2004-05 enacted All-Funds appropriation. Most of this increase is to cover collective bargaining salary increases and increased fringe benefit costs.
· There is a larger than expected increase in the appropriation for fringes and indirect costs in the Administration ($96,000 or 25%), Compliance ($231,000 or 15%), and Licensing and Wholesaler Service ($275,000 or 23%) programs. The purpose of this increase should be clarified at Labor-Management to ensure the increase is not for the contracting out of personal service work.
