$84,000 for Tinian programs with spending rules
The law gives the Mayor of Tinian and Aguiguan authority to spend $84,000 on personnel and public programs. The money comes from Second Senatorial District poker fees and cannot be moved to another purpose. It remains available beyond the fiscal year, with no fiscal-year deadline for spending. The recipient must report all expenses to the CNMI Finance Secretary by December 31, 2025. Failure to report blocks the recipient from accessing any future funds appropriated by the Tinian and Aguiguan Legislative Delegation.
