Preliminary Fiscal Impact Statement
Potential current biennium cost increase - General Fund
Fiscal Detail and Notes
Increasing the University of Maine System's bond ceiling from $220,000,000 to $350,000,000 to allow for the financing of potential future capital improvement projects may require a General Fund appropriation if, given this increased authority, the university system issues bonds that do not generate the anticipated additional revenue and require debt service payments from the General Fund.
