Gov. Daugaard administration anticipates 'lean' state budget year
Gov. Dennis Daugaard's administration said Wednesday that lower-than-expected tax collections will require a lean state spending plan for South Dakota's upcoming budget year.
Daugaard spokeswoman Kelsey Pritchard said in an email that the administration wouldn't have specific details to offer until the governor's December budget address to the Legislature.
The Republican governor will outline early in December his fiscal year 2019 budget proposal. The legislative session that starts in January and ends in late March is Daugaard's last as governor.
Lawmakers will revise the current year's budget and shape the next one during the upcoming 2018 session.
