The Texas state budget and planning cycle is a two-year funding cycle, startings with the publication of agency strategic plans, which have a business and operational focus on achieving the mission of the agency. These plans are due in June 2020.
The second step in the process is the preparation of a Legislative Appropriation Request (LAR) which outlines the projected spending requirements for the next two-year period. The next funding period will cover September 1, 2021 through August 31, 2022.
In step 3, the Texas Legislature will meet from January 2020 through May 2020 and will develop the biennial budget.
The new budget will then go into effect in September 2022.
