The PinPoint Team has extensive hands-on experience navigating money and funding appropriations at every stage of the Florida government budget process. We work diligently to influence funding appropriations at all levels of state government, helping clients secure vital resources.

Comprehensive Appropriations Money and Funding Support

Local Appropriations

We assist with money appropriations through Senate Local Funding Initiative Requests (LFIR) and House Appropriation Project Requests (APRs), supporting:

  • Local governments, private entities, and nonprofit organizations seeking funding appropriations.
  • Transportation projects outside the Department of Transportation’s Five-Year Work Program.
  • Education capital outlay projects not previously funded by the Legislature.
  • University and college programs not included in Board of Governors or State Board of Education budget requests.
  • Local water and park projects needing appropriations money and funding.

Statewide Appropriations

PinPoint represents multiple statewide organizations seeking funding appropriations each year. We specialize in securing increased money and funding appropriations, ensuring financial stability during economic downturns and legislative budget reviews.
