State finance; creating the Zero-Based Budgeting Implementation Act; requiring development of certain plan; requiring certain budget review. Effective date.

SB 810 creates Oklahoma's "Zero-Based Budgeting Implementation Act," requiring the Legislative Office of Fiscal Transparency (LOFT) to categorize all state agencies into tiers based on budget size, employee count, and regulatory scope (e.g., statutes, rules, licenses). It mandates a staggered 6-year review cycle where higher-budget agencies are reviewed every 4-6 years and lower-budget agencies every 2-4 years, ensuring balanced annual review loads. Starting July 2026, LOFT must collaborate with agencies and the Governor’s office to analyze each agency’s programs, costs, statutory authority, and performance measures, then provide annual budget recommendations by December 1st. This directly affects all Oklahoma state agencies receiving funding, including boards, commissions, and trusts.
