| Agency History |
| The Senate Fiscal
Agency traces its beginnings to 1964, when the Legislative Fiscal Agency
was formed by State statute. The Legislative Fiscal Agency was placed
under the control of the Senate Appropriations Committee and the House
of Representatives Ways and Means Committee and served members of both the
Senate and the House of Representatives.
Beginning in 1966 the Legislative Fiscal Agency was placed under the sole control of the Senate Appropriations Committee and in 1972 the name of the Agency was changed to the Senate Fiscal Agency. During 1985 the Senate Analysis Section, then under the control of the Secretary of the Senate, was moved to the Senate Fiscal Agency and in 1986 the current five-member composition of the SFA Governing Board was established. The Senate Fiscal Agency has been directed by six permanent Directors during the history of the Agency. The SFA Directors and their terms of service are the following: Arthur Ellis - July 1964 to June 1968 Eugene Farnum - July 1968 to September 1981 Theodore Ferris - October 1981 to May 1985 Patricia Woodworth - September 1985 to February 1988 Douglas Roberts - April 1988 to December 1990 Gary Olson - January
