Relating to semi-independent state agencies.
HB 4095 requires Oregon's semi-independent state boards (such as licensing commissions for professions like optometry or massage therapy) to follow standard state budget and financial reporting rules they previously were exempt from. The bill mandates these boards to submit detailed annual reports to the legislature, including budget documents, audit copies, and descriptions of fee changes requiring public hearings. It also requires boards to comply with state procurement rules and hold public hearings before adjusting fees. These changes apply broadly to all semi-independent boards currently operating outside standard state fiscal oversight.
