|
|
This bill includes
one-time General Fund appropriations of $1.0 million per year for fiscal year
2025-26 and fiscal year 2026-27 only to a newly created Loans for Trade Tools
Fund within the Finance Authority of Maine (FAME) established for the purpose
of making low-interest loans to eligible borrowers to purchase trade tools
necessary for employment in a trade.
This bill allows FAME to charge the fund for its reasonable
administrative costs, so no additional General Fund appropriations are
required. |
