SUMMARY

This amendment is the majority report of the committee. The amendment strikes the section of the bill that establishes a liaison position with respect to the Job Creation Through Educational Opportunity Program and replaces it with a section appropriating $70,000 in ongoing annual funds for the Finance Authority of Maine to hire and pay a full-time customer service employee for the purposes of promoting the Job Creation Through Educational Opportunity Program and assisting interested individuals, businesses and schools. The amendment also provides that the Finance Authority of Maine is not required but may contract with a private, nonprofit corporation to help market the program.
