Bill Summary

AN ACT RELATING TO RESERVE FUNDS; INCREASING THE AMOUNT OF MONEY IN EXCESS OF APPROPRIATIONS THAT MUST BE IN THE GENERAL FUND BEFORE A PORTION OF THE EXCESS IS TRANSFERRED TO THE TAX STABILIZATION RESERVE; CHANGING THE FUND THAT THE BALANCE OF THE EXCESS EXTRACTION TAXES SUSPENSE FUND IS TRANSFERRED TO EACH YEAR FROM THE TAX STABILIZATION RESERVE TO THE GENERAL FUND OPERATING RESERVE.

AI Summary

This bill amends existing laws to increase the amount of money in excess of appropriations that must be in the General Fund before a portion of the excess is transferred to the Tax Stabilization Reserve, and changes the fund that the balance of the Excess Extraction Taxes Suspense Fund is transferred to each year from the Tax Stabilization Reserve to the General Fund Operating Reserve. Specifically, the bill raises the threshold for transferring excess revenue from the General Fund to the Tax Stabilization Reserve from 8% to 15% of the previous year's aggregate recurring General Fund appropriations. It also directs the balance of the Excess Extraction Taxes Suspense Fund to be transferred to the General Fund Operating Reserve instead of the Tax Stabilization Reserve.
