HB 17-1298

House Bill 17-1298, also known as the Annual Compensation Report Submission Deadline bill, changes when state officials need to submit a report about how much they plan to pay state employees for the next year. Before this change, the report was due by August 1st every year, but now it must be submitted by September 15th starting with the report for fiscal year 2017. This affects government workers involved in budget planning and state employees who might see changes to their pay based on these reports. Since the bill has been signed into law, this new deadline is now official and must be followed.
