The governor’s budget director is recommending Montana agencies cut $229 million in general fund spending over the next two years to balance the state’s budget due to lower revenues than expected and this summer’s higher firefighting costs this summer.
Most of the cuts recommended by Budget Director Dan Villa were proposed by state agencies when they were asked to list how they’d cut 10 percent of their budget. However, Villa is recommending against cuts proposed by the Department of Natural Resources and Conservation because it would impact Montana’s ability to fight fires.
