BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MONTANA:
Section 1. Appropriation of cultural and aesthetic grant funds -- priority of disbursement. (1) The Montana arts council shall award grants for projects authorized by and limited to the amounts appropriated by [section 3] and this section. Money must be disbursed in priority order, first to projects covered under subsection (3) and second to projects listed in [section 3].
(2) The Montana arts council shall disburse money to projects authorized by [section 3] through grant contracts between the Montana arts council and the grant recipient. The award contract must bind the parties to conditions, if any, listed with the appropriation in [section 3].
(3) There is appropriated from the cultural and aesthetic projects trust fund account to the Montana historical society $30,000 for the biennium ending July 1, 2009, for care and conservation of capitol complex artwork.
Section 2. Fund transfer. At the beginning of fiscal year 2008, the amount of $1.5 million is transferred from the state general fund to the cultural and aesthetic projects trust fund account established in 15-35-108 for the purpose of protection of the works of art in the capitol and for other cultural and aesthetic projects. The intent of this fund transfer is to increase the corpus of the trust for purposes of generating interest earnings that provide funding to support programs and projects funded by the Montana arts council, and it is further the intent of the legislature that the money transferred in this section remain in the trust and not be appropriated for other purposes.
