N.D. (NewsDakota.com) – North Dakota Governor Doug Burgum is proposing another 9 million in spending reductions.

It would include another $31 million out of higher education; an additional $19 million from other state agencies; the elimination of 633 full-time positions; the elimination of one percent increases in K-12 per pupil funding, Medicaid and state employee salaries; and requiring state workers to pay 5 percent of their health insurance premiums.

On building project, the Communications and Fine Arts Building at Valley City State University would be canceled under Burgum’s proposal.

Burgum will use $200 million from the Foundation Aid Stabilization Fund for K-12 education. He proposes $140 million in transfers to the General Fund from the Bank of North Dakota, which is $60 million less that Dalrymple’s budget.
