Bill Summary

This bill requires that any ballot question authorizing the creation of a debt or liability of the State contain a statement of (1) the total amount appropriated in the prior fiscal year for payment of principal and interest due on State general obligation indebtedness and that amount on a State per capita basis, and (2) the estimated total amount of principal and interest payments required to redeem the aggregate principal amount of the new indebtedness proposed to be created and that amount on a State per capita basis. This statement would be in narrative form and would follow the interpretive statement that now appears on a ballot question to describe the purposes of the bond issue.
