New Revenue Commissioner David Burge presented the Governor's FY27 recommendations for the Department of Revenue, including funding to support DRIVES (the driver-record and integrated vehicle enterprise system) and ITS (the integrated tax system). He said the recommendation includes $213,815 for DRIVES support and $225,128 for ITS support and maintenance.
Burge also referred to an item intended to address increased postage costs associated with motor-vehicle tag production and mailing through Georgia Correctional Industries, but the amount in the transcript appears garbled and was not clearly stated. He said the postage item addresses only the increased postage cost for FY27.
Committee members did not pose substantive questions in the hearing record; Burge closed by saying the department stands ready to answer follow-ups.
What's next: The committee received the presentation; the department may provide clarified budget line-item documentation if requested.
