Appropriation Overview

During the 2015 General Session, the Legislature appropriated for Fiscal Year 2016, $3,176,500 from all sources for State History. This is a 3.9 percent increase from Fiscal Year 2015 revised estimated amounts from all sources. The total includes $2,167,100 from the General/Education Funds, an increase of 3.6 percent from revised Fiscal Year 2015 estimates.

The Division of State History supports the rehabilitation of historic sites. According to a 2013 study, "Profits through Preservation", $198,379,272 in wages were paid as a result of Utah historic preservation projects that used federal or state tax credits between 1990 and 2012. An additional $4.3 million in additional property tax revenues are collected annually from investments in Utah historic preservation projects. The program measures the number of jobs created annually by rehabilitation projects, as shown below.

Jobs Created From Historic Building Rehab

The Historic Preservation and Antiquities program uses G.I.S. Site, Survey and Project Records added to the collection as a productivity measure as shown below.

The Library and Collection program makes digital historic images available online. The results of this effort are shown below.
