An update to the Flagstaff Regional Plan 2030 (FRP30), to bring its Road Network Illustration (Map 25) into compliance with Arizona Revised Statute requirements and to resolve inconsistencies between Map 25 and parts of the Flagstaff City Code. This update does not alter the intent of FRP30; it is only concerned with correcting errors, removing legal vulnerability, and improving the readability of FRP30.
The Arizona Governor's annual budget for submission to the state Legislature, containing a complete plan of proposed expenditures and estimated revenues, including any proposed legislation that the Governor deems necessary to provide revenues to meet proposed expenditures. Some budgets cover two (or rarely three) fiscal years.
Contains planning information for state agencies in Arizona, including key goals and outcome-oriented performance measures, to provide the foundation to make government more understandable to the public, improve productivity and customer service, and strengthen accountability for results.
The revenue and expenditure of federal funds by state agencies in Arizona are detailed and analyzed in these reports.
This appropriations limit calculation includes a brief history of the appropriations limit, a step-by-step narration of the process used in computing the limit, and the detailed calculation of the appropriations limit. Pursuant to the law, both the Governor’s Office of Strategic Planning and Budgeting and the Joint Legislative Budget Committee staff are required to provide reports. However the ratio of actual appropriations or estimated appropriations to state personal income is likely to differ due to varying methodologies used by the two budget offices with respect to statutory appropriations. Statutory appropriations are grants of authority enacted by the Legislature and approved by the Governor that are continuous in nature and codified in the statutes. No authority is needed (e.g., in the annual appropriations bill) beyond the original enactment for monies to be expended.
To facilitate discussion about which species might be considered for protection, a series of in-depth interviews were conducted with members of the local science community who have expertise in the areas of birds, fish, invertebrates, mammals, plants and plant communities, and reptiles and amphibians.
Compiles information on plants and animals that are already recognized by the federal government as imperiled species, species which have been extirpated, and a much larger number of species that are in decline either locally or nationally. Descriptions of status, location, distribution, and habitat needs are presented for each species proposed. The report also considers vegetative communities, their history of decline and modification, and recommends priorities for their protection.
Two studies that describe the progress of riparian mapping that is being developed as part of the Sonoran Desert Conservation Plan.
If one species had to be chosen to preserve and restore, perhaps it should be cottonwood. Cottonwood-willow forests, where they exist and are healthy, indicated the presence of a viable riparian area, which is in turn the key to conserving great proportions of our native species. A reflection of the dire status of our riparian systems is that the Sonoran cottonwood-willow and Sonoran mesquite-cottonwood forests.
Chronicles how the intention to conserve a relic population of Gila topminnow under current resource conditions is generally insufficient. We have let the resource base degrade too far to expect project and site specific responses to stem losses, much less lead to recovery. The Gila topminnow was considered to be among the most common of fishes in the Santa Cruz River system in the early 1940s. Three decades later is was considered endangered; and in another three decades time, its recovery is not foreseeable, given the piecemeal approach to protection efforts.
