AN ACT FOR THE DEPARTMENT OF PARKS, HERITAGE, AND TOURISM - DIVISION OF HERITAGE REAPPROPRIATION.
HB 1394 redirects unused funds from previous appropriations to the Arkansas Division of Heritage within the Department of Parks, Heritage, and Tourism. It allocates $750,000 for special maintenance and $14.3 million for preserving state-owned historic sites, lands, and structures. The bill does not create new funding but reallocates existing unspent money to support heritage preservation and maintenance activities. This affects the Division of Heritage directly, ensuring continued work on historic properties without new legislative appropriations.
