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 15% 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 2010 includes agency surplus collected after June 30, 2010 and does not include funds used for mid-year K-12 adjustment.

LOTTERY RESERVES

Georgia's lottery laws required the establishment of two reserves that were 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 were not sufficient to meet appropriations, funds were to 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 $87,208,200 on June 30, 2010.

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 Shortfall Reserve Subaccount required a reserve equal to 50% of the amount of scholarship proceeds disbursed during the preceding year be maintained. The subaccount balance on June 30, 2010 totaled $272,993,887.

The two lottery reserves as of June 30, 2010 total as follows:

Shortfall Reserve Subaccount

$87,208,200

Scholarship Shortfall Reserve Subaccount

272,993,887

TOTAL LOTTERY RESERVES

$360,202,087

In the 2011 legislative session, the lottery laws were amended, collapsing the two reserves into a single Shortfall Reserve. The single Shortfall Reserve will take effect at the end of FY 2011 and must equal at least 50% of net proceeds for the proceeding year.

The U.S. Supreme Court decision, Olmstead v. L.C (1999) declared that unnecessary segregation of individuals in institutions might constitute discrimination based on disability and be a violation of the Americans with Disabilities Act. The decision affects qualified individuals with a physical, mental, or age-related disability who are receiving state-supported long-term care in a state hospital or nursing home that could also benefit from community placement and are not opposed to the move. It also affects people with disabilities who need state-supported community-based services to avoid going to state hospitals or nursing homes. Since the Olmstead decision, Georgia has taken steps to comply with the ruling by making more community services available and accessible to Georgians with disabilities.
