SCS/SB 1172 - This act authorizes the Secretary of State to open and maintain an archival facility in St. Louis. The act also provides the opportunity for the Secretary of State to receive any monies or properties for the development or maintenance of such a facility. Nothing in this act however, shall require any local agency, entity, or subdivision to transfer any records to the state archives. This act establishes the Missouri State Archives - St. Louis Trust Fund, a revolving fund which shall consist of all monies received from federal, private or other sources for the development or maintenance of the archival facility as well as fees generated from the facility. Monies from the fund are to be used exclusively for the development or maintenance of the facility and the state treasurer shall be the custodian of the fund. This act prohibits funds obtained through the provisions of the act to be made a part of the general operating budget for the state, or to be transferred into the general revenue fund. No moneys from the state general revenue fund can be appropriated for the funding an archival facility in St. Louis. JIM ERTLE
