2. The State Appropriation Report added a special line item specifying that the amount appropriated for the Probation Salary Increase Backfill line item is used to cover the state's share of county approved probation officer salary increases for FY23. All fund monies under the agreement must be expended by June 30 of the current fiscal year or be reverted to the AOC.
