HB 948 For FY 2011

LineItem Vetoes by the Governor
Section 50, pertaining to State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 153, line 4675: This language authorizes the appropriation of $174,400 in debt service to finance projects and facilities for the Department of Education, specifically to fund 20 percent of the cost of reconstruction at the Clarkdale Elementary School in Cobb County through the issuance of $2,000,000 in 20year bonds. This project was not vetted through the current Department of Education capital outlay process and was not requested by the agency. Further, in FY 2010, the state appropriated $22,170,155 to match $217,755,090 in federal funds for flood disaster relief to support area reconstruction efforts. Therefore, I veto this language (page 153, line 4675) in the provisions relative to Section 50 State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $174,400.
Section 50, pertaining to State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 154, line 4691: This language authorizes the appropriation of $558,080 in debt service to finance infrastructure expansion at Kennesaw State University in Cobb County through the issuance of $6,400,000 in 20year bonds. This project is largely focused on alleviating traffic congestion both in the Chastain Road/I75 interchange and at Kennesaw State University. This project is more appropriately evaluated, programmed, and funded through the Georgia Department of Transportation. Therefore, I veto this language (page 154, line 4691) in the provisions relative to Section 50 State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $558,080.
Section 50, pertaining to State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 156, line 4704: This language authorizes the appropriation of $12,208 in debt service to finance projects and facilities for the University System of Georgia, Board of Regents, specifically to acquire land to complete the Greene County Library in Greensboro through the issuance of $140,000 in 20year bonds. This project was not identified as a priority and was not requested by the agency. In addition, the purchasing of land to build a library parking lot is a local responsibility. It has been the position of this administration to follow the state approved agency capital outlay process to determine the capital needs for the State. Therefore, I veto this language (page 156, line 4704) in the provisions relative to Section 50 State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $12,208.
Section 50, pertaining to State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 157, line 4711: This language authorizes the appropriation of $172,124 in debt service to finance the design for facilities expansion on the WinderBarrow Campus of Lanier Technical College in Barrow County through the issuance of $740,000 in 5year bonds. This project was not identified as a priority and was not requested by the agency. In addition, this project ranks second on the priority capital needs list at the college. It has been the position of this administration to follow the state approved agency capital outlay process to determine the capital needs for the State. Therefore, I veto this language (page 157, line 4711) in the provisions relative to Section 50 State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $172,124.

Section 50, pertaining to State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund, page 157, line 4715: This language authorizes the appropriation of $235,440 in debt service to finance projects and facilities to expand the Health Classroom Building on Currahee Campus at North Georgia Technical College in Stephens County through the issuance of $2,700,000 in 20year bonds. This project was not identified as a priority and was not requested by the agency. It has been the position of this administration to follow the state approved agency capital outlay process to determine the capital needs for the State. Therefore, I veto this language (page 157, line 4715) in the provisions relative to Section 50 State of Georgia General Obligation Debt Sinking Fund and the state general funds of $235,440.

Section 23, pertaining to the Department of Education, page 68, line 2070: The General Assembly seeks to instruct the department to eliminate funds for the CRCT for grades 1 and 2 in the Testing program. CRCTs in grades 1 and 2 ensure that students in those grades are meeting state standards and give parents confidence that their children are making adequate progress. CRCTs in grades 1 and 2 also help prepare students for the CRCT in grade 3, the passage of which is required to move on to 4th grade. It is unwise to eliminate the CRCT in grades 1 and 2. The department is authorized to operate the program in accordance with the purpose of the program and the general law powers of the department.

Section 23, pertaining to the Department of Education, page 68, line 2071: The General Assembly seeks to instruct the department to eliminate funds for the writing assessment for grades 3 and 5 in the Testing program. Writing is one of the most fundamental skills a student must master in order to be prepared for later grades and ultimately to succeed in life.

The department is authorized to operate the program in accordance with the purpose of the program and the general law powers of the department.
Section 27, pertaining to the Department of Human Services, page 84, line 2597: The General Assembly seeks to instruct the department to reduce funds for regional managers and regional field program specialists in the Federal Eligibility Benefit Services program.

Revenue Shortfall Reserve

The 1976 RevenueShortfallReserve session of the General Assembly created the Revenue Shortfall Reserve in lieu of the Working Reserve. This reserve acts as a savings account or "rainy day" fund for the state should revenue collections decline unexpectedly or uncontrollably. Current law provides that the reserve cannot exceed 10% of the previous year's net revenue. For each fiscal year, the General Assembly may appropriate an amount equal to 1% of the net revenue collections of the preceding fiscal year for funding increased K-12 needs. In addition, the Governor has the authority to release funds from the reserve in excess of 4% of the net revenue of the preceding fiscal year. The chart for FY 2009 includes agency surplus collected after June 30, 2009 and does not include funds used for the mid-year K-12 adjustment.

LOTTERY RESERVES

Georgia's lottery laws require the establishment of two reserves that are funded as a percentage of lottery collections to avoid disruption in programs should collections fall short of annual appropriations.

The Shortfall Reserve Subaccount was included in the original law and required that an amount be set aside each year equal to 10% of the prior year's total lottery proceeds deposited into the Lottery for Education Account. If net funds in the account are not sufficient to meet appropriations, funds shall be drawn from the reserve to make up the shortage.

Funds have been set aside for the Shortfall Reserve (10% reserve) each year and totaled $86,768,600 on June 30, 2009.

The lottery law was amended during the 1994 legislative session to require that a second reserve account within the Lottery for Education Account be established called the Scholarship Shortfall Reserve Subaccount.

The scholarship reserve law requires a reserve equal to 50% of the amount of scholarship proceeds disbursed during the preceding year be maintained. The subaccount balance on June 30, 2009 totaled $239,770,942.

The two lottery reserves as of June 30, 2009 total are as follows:
