Relates to the appropriation to the Lava Hot Springs Foundation for fiscal year 2021.

This is the FY 2021 original appropriation bill for the Lava Hot Springs Foundation. It appropriates a total of $3,010,000 and caps the number of authorized full-time equivalent positions at 15.80. For benefit costs, the bill maintains the current appropriated amount for health insurance at $11,650 per eligible FTP and temporarily removes funding for the employer's sick leave contribution rate. Funding for replacement items includes $298,100 for water pumps, replacement decking, gel coat repair, splash toys, and a tractor. The bill also provides funding for the equivalent of a 2% change in employee compensation for permanent state employees, with an additional 2% increase for those in the 20 job classifications most in need of equity adjustments. The bill funds three line items, which provide $500,000 to demolish the Tumbling Waters Motel; $100,000 to purchase additional merchandise for the gift shop; and $10,000 for a tractor mounted bucket attachment. Also included are adjustments to pay the Office of Information Technology Services for security software and data center office space located at the Chinden Campus.
