Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 6, June, 2024
Keeping the Natural State natural.
I.
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to act as a policy for allocation
			 of funds collected through the Conservation License Plate ("CLP")
			 Program.
II.
Background
The Arkansas Department of Finance and Administration offers over
			 100 specialty license plates to Arkansas residents. These plates are sold for
			 $35 above standard registration, with $25 going to the sponsoring agency and
			 $10 going to the Department of Finance and Administration.
In 2000, the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission issued its first
			 specialty license plate and continues to do so today under the authority of
			 Arkansas Code Annotated §
								27-24-905.
Section (e) of this code authorizes the use of proceeds from the
			 license plates as follows:
The fee remitted under subdivision (b) (2)
			 of this section shall be deposited into the Game Protection Fund to be used by
			 the commission for the following purposes:
(1) Sponsoring college scholarships related
		  to the field of conservation;
(2)
		  Funding land purchases for the benefit of the public; and
(3) Providing conservation education
		  programs.
The Conservation License Plate Program generates around $1
			 million annually in revenue for the Arkansas Game and Fish Commission. The goal
			 is to maintain a balance of no less than $1 million in the fund, so annual
			 budget disbursements vary.
History has proven that the plate design choice dictates the
			 success level of sales. License plate designs include the following:

Arkansas Administrative Code › Agency 003 - DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE › Division 19 - Arkansas Economic Development Commission › Rule 003.19.20-008 - Developmental Disabilities Provider Emergency Loan Program

Current through Register Vol. 49, No. 6, June, 2024
Overview
As a result of the national COVID-19 pandemic, many nonprofit
				organizations are facing significant financial struggles resulting in layoffs
				of employees and curtailment of operations. Developmental Disabilities
				Providers (the "Providers") have been hit especially hard due to social
				distancing measures that have reduced billable services. Providers with fewer
				than 500 employees have been able to take advantage of the federal Paycheck
				Protection Program ("PPP") loans administered through the U.S. Small Business
				Administration, however Providers with more than 500 employees are not eligible
				for PPP loans.
The Providers with more than 500 employees have a significant
				economic impact to the State of Arkansas by providing employment opportunities
				to the developmentally disabled population and by providing caregiving so that
				family members may work. The cessation of operations by any of these Providers
				would have a significant detrimental economic impact on the State of
				Arkansas.
Based on the forgoing economic development need, and pursuant
				to the authority granted under Ark. Code Ann. §
								15-4-209(a)(1)
				and §
								15-4-209(b)(5),
				the Arkansas Economic Development Commission ("AEDC") is establishing this
				Developmental Disabilities Provider Emergency Loan Program (the "ELP") to
				address this need and in so doing benefit the economy of Arkansas.
Section 1:
Eligibility Criteria for ELP
			 Loans.
AEDC may provide loans under the ELP to any Provider
				who:
A. Is an "accredited nonprofit
			 entity" under Ark. Code Ann. §
									20-48-101;
B. Had at least 500 employees as of February
			 15, 2020;
C. Because of the current
			 economic uncertainty pertaining to the COVID-19 pandemic, needs an emergency
			 loan in order to support the ongoing operations of the Provider;
D. Intends to use the loan proceeds for
			 necessary working capital purposes, including payroll, rent/mortgage payments,
			 and utilities; and
E. Has been
			 unable to secure the needed working capital through other programs administered
			 by the State of Arkansas or the federal government.
Loans under the ELP must be closed and funded by no later than
				December 30, 2020. AEDC shall make no loans under the ELP after that date. The
				maximum aggregate amount of loans that may be funded under the ELP shall not
				exceed the lesser of i) the amount appropriated by the Legislative Council of
				the Arkansas General Assembly, or ii) $7,844,021.
