GOVERNOR'S INTRODUCTION

TO MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY:

Fiscal year (F.Y.) 1995 will continue the

transition in Georgia from four years of budget

constraints to moderate but sustained revenue growth and

service improvements.

The turnaround started in F.Y. 1994, but it looks

like F.Y. 1995 might be a more accurate harbinger of the

revenue and spending picture that could linger for the

next several years.

F.Y. 1995 offers these

encouragements:

An F.Y. 1995 budget totaling $9,775,460,431,

funded by revenues from three sources:

--A revenue estimate of $9,396,000,000 in

general funds, an increase of $683.5 million, or 7.8

percent.

--$240,173,298 in lottery proceeds.

--$139,287,133 from the Indigent Care Trust

Fund.

In addition, a $100 million State income tax cut

has been proposed and has already been subtracted from

the above numbers.

Projections for the near future indicate there is

some impressive data to support my recommendations to

spend a record $9.8 billion in State funds during F.Y.

1995, as detailed in this Budget Report.

Growth will continue in the 6-8 percent range for the second straight year, spelling an end to three recent years when real growth was less than two percent each year.
Revenues exceeded the estimate by $100 million in F.Y. 1993 and are on target to exceed the estimate by almost 2 percent in F.Y. 1994.
The Revenue Shortfall Reserve, our rainy day fund, now totals $122.6 million as a result of the F.Y. 1993 excess collections and other surplus funds on hand. And it is almost certain that the Reserve will get additional funds at the end of F.Y. 1994. These are the first funds in the Reserve in four years.
Georgia now ranks among the top two or three states in the nation in job growth, with most of the growth coming in services, retail trade and construction. This growth pattern is expected to continue for the next two to three years.
Georgia is the only state that ranks among the leading states in both total population growth and in percentage growth. In new census data for 1993, Georgia ranked fourth in total growth, with a gain of 144,000 new citizens last year, and also tied for eighth in percentage growth. Georgia's population gained 2.1 percent, double the 1.1 percent growth rate for the nation.
F.Y. 1994 marked the first year since 1989 that Georgia has not encountered budget problems that forced the use of Reserve funds or budget cutbacks during the year to balance its budget.
Coming after so many years of struggle to balance the budget, the prospects for F.Y. 1995 and beyond are a welcome relief to all Georgians.

As we make choices on how to spend the growth in revenues, it is important to keep in mind just how difficult recent years have been. That will serve as a reminder that things can change quickly and our choices of spending priorities must be made carefully.
Over the past three years we have reduced the State's revenue estimate five times by a total of $944 million to match spending with projected revenues. In making the cuts, we reduced the number of funded positions by 5,000, the largest downsizing in State
employees ever. While some programs and services have suffered,
we minimized the effect by keeping a vigilant eye on eliminating waste and sharpening the machinery of government to make it more economical and effective.
In addition, we are implementing many of the Williams Commission recommendations to privatize some government operations. My Amended Budget included four privatizations that will save $2,207,434 in F.Y. 1995 and eliminate 143 positions from the State
payroll. Last year I recommended a small copayment on
Medicaid recipients to help curtail medical costs. In F.Y. 1995, I am recommending the expansion of copayments to 15 additional services at savings estimated at $5.96 million the first year.
Managed health care initiatives will save another $3 million in 1995, if approved.
In my first State of the State message in January 1991, I said that "we cannot sit on the sidelines and wait for the economy to improve. We must act."
Three years later, we can look back on a long list of accomplishments to stimulate our economy:

GOVERNOR'S INTRODUCTION

Broadened initiatives to improve our public schools, colleges and universities and technical institutues to provide more educated workers so that we are not bypassed by the businesses and industries which will require highly skilled workers in the future.
The Georgia Rebound program was a legislative and budget package that focused on improvements in education, economic development, the environment and public safety--areas vital to economic success.
A new thrust in economic development built around a revamped Governor's Development Council, with actions to help seed new businesses and assist existing businesses, and with more cooperation between the state and local governments and the private sector.
A new focus on international trade, beginning with helping industry to export more products.
Better transportation access, with a bolder vision of embracing all areas of transportation, including rail, into our planning for the future. Highways will always be important, but we must also think on a broader scale.
In the same speech, I called for the legislative and voter approval of a State lottery. The fruits of that lottery are very apparent today.
In F.Y. 1994 we are appropriating $280.4 million for new education spending from lottery receipts alone. For F.Y. 1995 we are estimating receipts of $240.2 million from the lottery. This means that in the first two years of the lottery, it will produce at least $520.6 million for new education spending.
I promised in the beginning that lottery funds would not be used to supplant spending for education.

Despite the fact that we are now spending over half a billion dollars for education improvements over a two-year period from lottery funds, the portion of our general funds going into education will actually incn~ase under my recommendations.
My F.Y. 1995 recommendations for new State spending will continue and build on the progress that we have made during the first three budgets of my Administration, despite the budget cutbacks.
Immediately following this Introduction in the F.Y. 1995 Budget Report is a new section called "Highlights of the Governor's F.Y. Recommendations." It provides a succinct preview of the most important recommendations that I have made. Most departments also have a "Highlights" page that dramatizes the recommendations in more detail. Thus, it would be duplication for me to discuss these recommendations in too much detail here. But I will list very briefly the areas of our spending focus in 1995.
More spending for education. New initiatives in fighting crime. A major new thrust in economic development. The largest pay raises for teachers and State employees in many years. Significant transportation improvements. Increased help to local governments 10 economic development. Expanded recreational opportunities. More community-based health services. Many improvements for enhancing the health and safety of our children.
My goal as Governor is to provide the services that our people need and desire. This must done in the

context of helping people to achieve success on their own initiative. I am proud of our success and will continue to strive for a stronger and more serviceoriented State Government.

development and marketing programs and to help small businesses develop and expand. These funds would be appropriated through five separate agencies.
Almost $4 million through the Department of Community Affairs to assist local governments and business in various economic development initiatives; to provide more affordable housing options, and to establish an Office of Technology Policy.

Total recipients will have grown by almost 400,000 over the past four years.
Expansion of the copayment program in the Medicaid program to 15 additional services estimated to save approximately $5.96 million in State funds the first year. The first copayment program was implemented July 1,

AN ECONOMIC REPORT

UNDERPINNING GEORGIA'S BUDGET
The State's annual budget depicts an expected interaction of the State-Government and the private sectors of the Georgia economy. The depiction is in terms of money flows. Through taxes and fees, purchasing power is drawn from households and businesses and flows to the State. Through legislative appropriation and allotment, expenditures flow back from the State into private markets to accomplish a politically-chosen influence. By year's end, the revenues flowing to the State and the expenditures flowing back to the private sector are in balance.
Although the financial flows are offsetting, the budget's underlying exchanges of resources for services and goods are not. To satisfy the electorate, the public merit of what the State supplies must exceed the apparent cost of what the State absorbs. The challenge to budgeting is to develop the financial plan that makes this so. Accordingly, the budget must always be undergirded by real activity in the economy.
Being a plan, the budget rests upon expected economic conditions. The State's budget for F.Y. 1995 must build upon prospects for the Georgia economy in 1994, 1995 and beyond. As part of the U.S. "free trade area," Georgia's private economy never stands alone. Whatever its internal movers, trade with the rest of the country (and the world) both conditions and reinforces Georgia's activity. Consequently, the specific underpinning for the budget is the economic prospect for Georgia. But, the general foundation is the economic prospect for the Nation.
L The National Economy
The U.S. economy has been slow to recover from recession and regain the heights of mid-1990. Over the past three and onehalf years, output adjusted for changes in price has climbed by 4.4 percent. The increase has been on a fitful path, averaging only 1.3 percent per year. Even from the recession-low of early 1991, output has risen at only 2.4 percent per year. This rate is far below the 4.8 percent rate that marked the comeback in the early eighties. It is also below the pace of 2.6 percent that marked the entire eighties decade.

Employment's recovery has been even more lethargic. After three and one-half years, non-agricultural employment is barely over its prior peak and growth since the recession's bottom

has been only 0.7 percent per year. With employment in a third of the states at or below mid-1990 levels, this weak overall performance is not surprising. The widespread business (and

government) "downsizing" to shed unproductive manpower, strip away loss-prone branches, and pare overhead costs has restricted increases in jobs, for the time being at least. When there has been a need for workers, resort typically has been to overtime hours or to part-time help so as to limit increases in employee fringe costs.
In reflection, the unemployment rate, around 5.5 percent in mid1990 and up to 7.5 percent in early 1992, has been slipping slowly and only now is sinking through 6.5 percent.
Despite the weak growth, some industries have fared relatively well. Services faltered mainly in 1991. Employment and output have since climbed at annual rates rising to 4.7 and 3 percent. Construction slipped sharply during the first two years of the slowdown but, in the last twelve months, has added 4.3 percent to worker rolls and 7.8 percent to output. Retail trade started a comeback in 1992 and in the last year has added both workers and real sales at a 3.5 percent rate. Were it not for manufacturing, the U.S. recovery might have had a profile close to that of the early eighties. However, manufacturing employment remains some 7 percent below the levels of mid-1990 and the continuing monthly declines are narrowing slowly.
Despite lagging employment, lagging industries and lagging states, economic push is now coming from a mix of forces resembling that which usually powers resurgence after recession. In the last few months, households are buying far more durables, especially furniture and appliances and motor vehicles, and they are buying many more houses. Businesses are boosting purchases of equipment, much of it for information processing. Coming so long after the economic dip, these forces bolster an activity level that is well below the trend level to which resurgence commonly moves the system. The U.S. economy has missed the steep incline of postrecession recovery. It is now on the flatter path of self-sustaining prosperity.
The new economic momentum seems enough to carry output upward at a 3 percent rate for 1994 and 1995. The pent-up demand for durables will probably be stimulative for about two years. Moreover, since the demand for furnishings and appliances is partly induced by resales and new sales of housing, residential investment, up 7.8 percent in the last year, will promote a further

bulge in durables purchases. Certainly interest rates, kept abnormally low by the weakness of both growth and inflation, will be of support. So will the lowered energy prices. Additionally, the new equipment that business continues to put in place will enhance productivity, bolster profits, and at last, stimulate hiring. Four to five years after the peak, the states that have stalled or are still slipping will have absorbed their inherent excesses in construction and hiring, be able to accommodate reduced Federal purchases, and be ready to rejoin the economic union. Like a power in reserve, recovery in these states will tip the national growth planes upward and extend their length.
IT. Georgia's Private Economy
To avoid the national pattern of sluggish recovery, Georgia's private economy would have had to be driven by powerful in-State forces. In the eighties, Georgia did set itself apart from much of the Nation and grew at rates matching those of the top few states. Then, the advantage came from a sustained population increase reflective of perceptions of individual and business opportunity, especially in Atlanta. Population gains, over 2 percent for three high-growth years in the middle-eighties, sank to a low of 1.4 percent in 1990 before increasing to 1.8 and 1.9 percent in 1991 and 1992. Nevertheless, the new gains in population have not had the overwhelming impacts of earlier years.
While the recent advances in Georgia's service, retail trade and construction industries must be partly people-oriented, only in the past year has output in Georgia's private sector grown significantly faster than in the U.S. In the main, Georgia has experienced the output lags so pronounced in the Nation. Relative to earlier recoveries, Georgia's earnings in 1990-1993 have advanced at no more than half their prior rates. Compared to gains in personal income in other states, Georgia's advance was close to the middle of gains in the first year of recovery, in the upper quarter in the second year, and in the upper fifth in the last year and one-half.
In terms of employment, the story has been different. Georgia's private sector has been more buoyant than the Nation's in the first, second and third years of recovery. Only in 1991 did

Georgia lose jobs at rates greater than in the Nation. By July of 1993, there were 64,000 or 2.1 percent more people at work in nonagricultural jobs than there had been in July of 1990 and 109,000 or 3.7 percent more than at the recession's low in March of 1991. By October, the advantages had grown to 116,000 (3.9 percent) and 161,000 (5.5 percent). Increases from the peak in the wholesale and retail trade industry of 3.8 percent, in finance, insurance and real estate of 1.2 percent, and, most notably, in services of 11.9 percent offset the deficits in construction of 12.5 percent, in transportation and public utilities of 2.5 percent, and in manufacturing of 2.4 percent. Over the past year, Georgia has been adding jobs at a rate of around 3 percent, double the U.S. rate.
Compared to other states, Georgia's job gains have ranked it among the top three or four in recent months. As noted, Georgia's income gains have not been so highly placed. Consequently, Georgia's improvements in productivity appear not to be tracking the strong national pace. Certainly Georgia's personal income adjusted for price changes has not been nearly as responsive to employment gains in the past three years as in the comparable years following the 1982 or 1973 recessions.
Georgia's unemployment rate, hovering between 5 and 6 percent during most of the eighties, bumped 8 percent in 1992 and, during 1993, has moved down through 5 percent. At the same time, Georgia's employment-to-population ratio, 46 percent in 1990, has dropped to 44.2 percent. In the recovery of 1982-1985, the same ratio rose by 4 percentage points. The private sector is not utilizing its labor resource with the same intensity as earlier.
The prospect for advances in ouput and employment in Georgia's private sector in 1994 and 1995 is not established by current comparative growth advantages over the U.S. or other states. The prospect rests instead upon the internal growth momentum which has been building up in recent months and which promises to become self-reinforcing. As in the Nation, pent-up demand for durables will both push upward independently and be stimulated by advances in residential investment. In turn, residential investment will be buoyed by the population gains which Georgia again enjoys.
On the business side, earlier and ongoing investments in equipment will stimulate productivity and make the low-real interest rates consequential in business decisions to locate or to expand. On top

of that, the push from an expanding national economy will grow stronger and add power and longevity to Georgia's growth. All considered, a growth rate in real output of 3 to 4 percent in 1994 and 1995 appears likely.
m. Georgia's Public (State) Economy
The outreach of the State's tax-and-fee system is sensitive to the vigor and the pattern of growth in the private economy. There is no rigid tax-income linkage. The base to which the sales and use tax applies does not swell to the same degree in every upswing. It responds to the way and speed with which growth occurs. Similarly, the taxable income on which individual incometax liabilities depend registers the interaction of a series of income and spending characteristics among households and businesses. These are settled by the origins and the variety of engines of growth. Likewise, the yield of the corporate income tax hinges on whether increased returns and cash flow lead towards or follow from increased activity.
In a resurgence following recession, the revenues from Georgia's tax-and-fee system typically become increasingly sensitive to private economic gains. As spending shifts towards tax bases, as corporate profits recover, and as the volume of income in upper brackets rises, the rate of gain of revenues tends to surpass the rate of gain of output in the private economy. In 1994 and 1995, the pattern of expansion favors such an exaggeration of revenue yield.
Georgia missed the resurgence after the 1990-1991 recession just as did the Nation. The engines which are now lifting the private economies of Georgia and the U.S. are those that resurgence usually features. The shift of consumption towards durables, the quick surge in incomes that goes with an enlivened construction industry, and the hires in new jobs using more productive business equipment all push up on the principal taxes.
If Georgia's private sector grows at 3 to 4 percent in 1994 and 1995, the State's revenues will grow more rapidly, probably by another 0.5 to 1 percent. In combination with an inflation factor of 3 to 4 percent, the State's outreach in 1994 and 1995 then promises to generate an increase in F.Y. 1995 revenues in the range of 7 to 9 percent.

READER'S GUIDE

Financial and budget statements are probably among the most difficult presentations to understand. A Reader's Guide is being included in this issue of the Governor's Budget Report to help readers better understand its contents. This new feature is part of broader publication reforms that are being implemented over a period of several years.
TWO BUDGET REPORTS PRINTED The Budget Report--the document you are now reading--is
one of two publications that are printed annually in which the Governor makes budget recommendations to the General Assembly. The Budget Report proposes State spending for the next fiscal year-in this instance, F.Y. 1995, which begins July 1, 1994 and ends June 30, 1995.
A second publication, the Amended Budget Report, details spending changes recommended by the Governor for the fiscal year underway when the General Assembly meets in regular session in January of each year.
After each year's regular session ends, a third publication, the Budget in Brief, is printed to explain the amended and outyear budgets as approved by the General Assembly.
FUND AVAILABILITY The underpinning for any budget is the amount of funds
available for expenditure. Fund availability is expressed in two broad categories:
State funds. (1) The taxes and fees collected by the State and deposited directly into the State Treasury to be appropriated by the General Assembly, which is the basis for the official revenue estimate; (2) reserves; (3) surplus funds; (4) lottery receipts, and (5) Indigent Care Trust Funds.
Total funds. All funds available for appropriation, including (1) State funds; (2) Federal funds; (3) and other funds, which include fees and charges assessed and retained by the agency.
STATE FUNDS State funds comprised 58 percent of total expenditures in
the original F. Y. 1994 budget and are the most visible of all funds. The State fund total is most frequently used in news reports and is

the total that most often concerns public debate and deliberations by the House and Senate Appropriations Committees. The level of Federal and other funding is often driven by the level of State fund appropriations.
FEDERAL AND OTHER FUNDS Federal funds flow directly to State agencies from the many
Federal programs that provide grants to State and local governments. While most Federal funds for local governments go directly to the cities and counties receiving them, some grant funds are distributed to local governments through the State budget.
Other funds can be confusing because of the terminology used. To simplify the confusion, think of other funds as two categories. The first category is actually called Other Funds and it is common to many departments. This category includes funds collected by State agencies and retained for expenditure, as provided by statute, without going through the State treasury.
Examples of Other funds are college tuition fees, fees paid at State parks and various fees received by agencies for services rendered.
The second category includes a host of special funds that are generally unique to a single agency or to a specific program. This includes Sponsored Income (Regents), Authority paybacks, the Governor's Emergency Fund and DOAS-Indirect Funds. This category represents a very small percentage of total expenditures.
Both categories are included in the Appropriation Act but can be amended into an agency's budget upon approval by the Office of Planning and Budget (OPB) if funds collected are more or less than the appropriated amounts.
REVENUE ESTIMATE Georgia's State Constitution requires that the General
Assembly appropriate a budget that balances expenditures with anticipated revenues. Therefore, each year's budget cannot exceed the total of revenues expected to be collected and any surplus or reserve funds that are available for expenditure.
The Governor, who is the Budget Director, is responsible for establishing the official revenue estimate. He is assisted in this responsibility by a State economist under contract as a consultant

with the Governor's Office of Planning and Budget. The basis for making revenue projections is a computerized
econometric model. From this model, a range of estimates is provided to the Governor by his economic consultant. In early December, just prior to finalizing his budget recommendations to the General Assembly, the Governor adopts a final revenue estimate--an action that, when added to surplus funds, determines the size of the forthcoming appropriation bill.
SURPLUS FUNDS Surplus funds come from two sources: (1) Excess revenue
collections over the revenue estimate; and (2) Unspent appropriations that were lapsed back to the State treasury and may be available for re-appropriation.
Lapses occur in two ways: (1) Appropriations that OPB never allotted to agencies for expenditure, an action that automatically puts the funds back into the treasury; and (2) Appropriations that were allotted for expenditure but were unspent at the end of the year. These funds are lapsed back into the treasury by the State Auditor following the annual audits of each agency.
RESERVES Two reserves are maintained by the State--the Midyear
Adjustment Reserve and the Revenue Shortfall Reserve. The Midyear Adjustment Reserve is established by the
State Auditor on June 30 each year and represents 1 percent of net revenue collections for the pnor fiscal year, to the extent surplus funds are available up to that total. The Reserve is set aside to be appropriated in an Amended Budget at the next session of the General Assembly. The Reserve is considered to be the primary fund source for the "Midterm Adjustment" funding for the State Board of Education. This adjustment is customarily appropriated in the Amended Budget to provide the State's share of the increased cost of new students enrolled in the fall.
The Revenue Shortfall Reserve is equal to 3 percent of the prior fiscal year's net revenue collections, to the extent surplus funds are available, and is established after the Midyear Adjustment Reserve has been filled. The Shortfall Reserve is the State's rainy

12

READER'S GUIDE

day fund and is available to offset a shortage in revenues at the end of the fiscal year.
Occasionally, other Reserves can be available for appropriation. For instance, the Motor Fuel Reserve represents funds eannarked for appropriation to the Department of Transportation in years when motor fuel tax collections exceed the original budgeted estimate for motor fuel collections. Such an appropriation is required by the State Constitution.
FOUR SECTIONS IN BUDGET REPORT The Budget Report is divided broadly into the following
four sections:
Financial Summaries.
Department Budget Summaries.
Capital Outlay
Appendix
Following is a detailed explanation of these four sections.
FINANCIAL SUMMARIES
The first pages in this Budget Report include various tables or charts that provide an overall view of the budget being recommended by the Governor to operate State Government during F. Y. 1995. The infonnation covers anticipated revenues and proposed appropriations in a variety of ways. Following is a short description of each page.
Estimated State Fund Availability and Appropriations displays revenues by their fund source and compares the revenues with recommended appropriations.
Georgia Revenues, Actual and Estimated displays actual State revenues by each actual source--taxes, fees, the lottery and Indigent Trust Funds for fiscal years 1991, 1992 and 1993, and projected revenues from the same sources for fiscal years 1994 and 1995.

Two pages of pie charts display State revenues and State appropriations by their percentages of the total State budget. The first chart, Sources of Tax Dollars, displays actual or estimated State funds for five years--F.Y. 1991 through F.Y. 1995. The second chart, How State Dollars Are Spent, displays the F.Y. 1994 operating budget and F. Y. 1995 recommendations by 10 major program or service areas.
Statement of Financial Condition displays the State's assets, current liabilities, bonded indebtedness and fund equity as shown in the State Auditor's Report as of June 30, fiscal years 1993 and 1992.
DEPARTMENT FINANCIAL SUMMARIES
The bulk of the Budget Report is embodied in this section, which includes department-by-department recommendations by the Governor for total State spending in F. Y. 1995, along with historic data for comparison purposes.
AN OVERVIEW OF ALL DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDATIONS
Two table displays provide the reader an overview of the Governor's recommendations compared to prior years. The first table, Expenditures and Appropriations by Department. State funds provides the following data for each department:
--Actual expenditures for the last two fiscal years, 1992 and 1993, and budgeted appropriations for F.Y. 1994.
--The appropriations requested.. --The Governor's budget recommendations.. The second table, Appropriations by Department.. Total Funds provides the following infonnation for each department: --F.Y. 1995 total appropriations. --F. Y. 1995 recommended appropriations by total funds, State funds, Federal funds and all other funds.
RECOMMENDATIONS BY DEPARTMENT
The agencies receiving appropriations are listed in the following order:
Legislative Branch--the General Assembly and the

Department of Audits. Judicial Branch--9 separate agencies. Executive Branch--36 separate agencies. The agencies comprising the Legislative and Judicial
Branches are shown in the Budget Report only by Department Financial Summary, and only the requests of each agency are shown. By State law, the Governor cannot recommend spending for these agencies, but must include their requests as a part of his budget recommendations.
The Executive Branch departments are listed in alphabetical order. The section of most departments includes five different presentations about that department's budget recommendations, followed by an Organization Chart. Following is a descriptive review of each of the presentations:
HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GOVERNOR'S F.Y. 1995 RECOMMENDATIONS
The Highlights page is new this year and is designed to give a quick overview of each department's budget as recommended by the Governor. A box in the left column includes the department's total State fund budget, the amount of increase (or decrease) over the existing budget, and the percentage increase(or decrease), as well as a pie chart showing the department's percentage of the total budget. The remainder of the page is devoted to a narrative synoposis of the major highlights of budget changes recommended by the Governor. This page may be omitted for a few of the smaller agencies that have few budget changes, or for those agencies where the highlights were not significant enough to justify the inclusion of the page.
DEPARTMENT FINANCIAL SUMMARY This is a financial display by object class, reflecting total
funds in eight different columns that reveal the following: -F.Y. 1992 and F. Y. 1993 actual expenditures.
--F.Y. 1994 current appropriations. --F.Y. 1995 agency requests by continuation and improvement funds. --F.Y. 1995 recommendations by the Governor by

READER'S GUIDE

continuation, improvement and total funds. Fund sources are shown at the bottom of each column, along with the number of positions and motor vehicles.
BUDGET SUMMARY The Budget Summary provides a short narrative description
of all continuation and improvement expenditures recommended by the Governor. The total requests and recommendations are shown for each expenditure. Beginning this year, continuation funds are shown separately by reductions and additions to provide a more indepth look at each department's budget. The total of all improvement fund requests is shown, along with recommendations. A final line shows total State funds--continuation and improvements.
FUNCTIONAL BUDGET SUMMARY These pages include a description of each function of a
department's continuation operations, with columns that show F.Y. 1994 appropriations and F. Y. 1995 recommendations by State funds.
The narrative explains the programs and services delivered by each function and specifies the amount of non-State funds that are appropriated for functional expenditure.
DEPARTMENT PERFORMANCE MEASURES This presentation details accomplishments of each
department in such areas as people served, dollars saved, various expenditures, number of investigations conducted, etc. These accomplishments are detailed by actual experiences for F. Y. 1992 and F.Y. 1993; by budgeted accomplishments for F.Y. 1994; by agency requests for F.Y. 1995, and by expectations for F.Y. 1995 based on the Governor's recommendation
ORGANIZATION CHART An organization chart is the last display for each
department. This is a departure from past years when the chart was the first display in each department's section.
The chart is configured by divisions, with each divisional section highlighted by statements describing the activities of the division.

The page also includes a description of the department's responsibilities, as well as the responsibilities of attached agencies. Also included is a listing of each department's October 1 employment total, by department and division, and the number of employees in each attached agency.
CAPITAL OUTLAY
This section lists, by each department, the capital outlay projects that are being recommended for funding in F.Y. 1995 by the Governor, and on a separate page all capital outlay projects that the Department estimates are needed for the following three fiscal years--1996, 1997 and 1998. Capital outlay projects for F.Y. 1995 are listed first in alphabetical order, followed by the projections, also in alphabetical order. The amount of funds, by cash or bonds, either recommended or estimated is also listed for each project
APPENDIX
This is a new section being added this year to provide background statistics that will be helpful to readers in better understanding Georgia's budget picture. Included this year are a list of surplus funds by agency for F.Y. 1992 and F.Y. 1993, several schedules that provide in-depth information about Georgia's historic record of bonds sold and a glossary of terms that relate to budgeting in Georgia. Additional information will be added to this section in future documents.
THE BUDGET PROCESS
The budget process for any given year, from the first planning stages to post-auditing, involves a series of actions spread over about two and one-half years.
State law requires all State agencies to submit a request for appropriations to the Office of Planning and Budget no later than September 1 of each year. These requests can be for amended appropriations in the fiscal year then underway or spending requests for the next fiscal year. Most agencies begin work on these

requests in the spring for a fiscal year that is 14 to 15 months in the future.
Beginning in early September, the Governor begins a fourmonth period in which he studies the department requests and develops his recommendations to the General Assembly. During this interim, he meets with department heads and consults with his OPB staff in finalizing his proposals.
BUDGET ANNOUNCEMENTS The Governor normally appears before a joint meeting of
the House and Senate Appropriations Committees during the first week in January to announce his recommendations for amending the current year's budget. The next year's budget recommendations are announced by the Governor during his annual Budget Message, which is delivered to a joint legislative session during the first week of the annual session. The Legislature convenes on the second Monday in January.
LEGISLATIVE ACTION By law, the appropriation bill is introduced in the House
of Representatives and first goes to the House Appropriations Committee for consideration before being voted on by the entire House. The bill follows a similar path through the Senate. The House and Senate versions usually differ. While still working within the total revenue estimate established by the Governor, a conference committee is then appointed to reach a compromise on the two versions. The conference committee's version must be accepted totally or rejected by each house.
ADMINISTRATION OF THE BUDGET Once an Appropriations Act has been signed into law,
OPB, on behalf of the Governor, is responsible for ensuring that all State expenditures conform to the legislative mandate. State agencies are responsible for ensuring that they do not exceed spending authorizations by total appropriation or by object class. This is accomplished through approval by OPB of an annual operating budget, a quarterly work program to receive allotments for spending and post-quarter reports detailing quarterly expenditures required of all departments.

READER'S GUIDE

After the fiscal year ends, the State Auditor is responsible for auditing all expenditures of every State agency and operation, including all colleges and universities, authorities and school districts.
OBJECT CLASS APPROPRIATIONS All funds are appropriated through common and unique
object classes. There are more than a dozen common object classes, such as personal services, regular operating expenses, capital outlay, travel and real estate rentals. Unique object classes, of which there are almost 100 in the State Board of Education alone, usually relate only to a specific agency.
The largest object classes are grants, benefits and personal services, which together aggregate 72.4 percent of all appropriations. In the original 1994 appropriations, grants totaled 26 percent of the budget, benefits totaled 25 percent and personal services represented 21.4 percent.
Personal services funds are appropriated to pay salaries to State employees, as well as the fringe benefits that are provided to each employee. These fringe benefits (with some exceptions such as law enforcement personnel) will equal 36 percent of each employee's salary in F. Y. 1995. The benefits include Social Security, 7.65 percent; retirement, 15.96 percent, and health insurance, 12.5 percent. (Health insurance for teachers is 8.66 percent).
The Appropriation Act in recent years has provided some flexibility for State agencies by authorizing some transfers between common object classes. The limits are: no common object class spending can exceed 102 percent of appropriations for that class, and total spending on all common object classes cannot exceed the total funds authorized.
Further transfers between these object classes are possible with permission of the Fiscal Affairs Subcommittee of the General Assembly, as recommended by the Governor.
As the State moves into outcome-based budgeting, as prescribed in Senate Bill 335, the use of object classes might become less important. Outcome-based budgeting emphasizes outcomes rather than line-item expenditures.

RECOMMENDED DISTRIBUTION OF LOITERY PROCEEDS BY PROGRAM
State law (50-27-1 et seq. O.C.G.A.) provides that the proceeds from the lottery be appropriated for programs in three areas: a voluntary pre-kindergarten for four-year-olds; scholarships and students loans; and capital improvements for education. The lottery proceeds are projected to be $240,173,298 for FY 1995. The Governor recommends continuing the FY 1994 reserve of $28,500,000. The Governor recommends $240,173,298 for the following programs.
Voluntary Pre-Kindergarten for Four-Year-Olds.
This program is designed to give Georgia's four-year-olds developmentally appropriate programs to enable Georgia's school popUlation to begin primary school ready to learn. The Governor recommends funding of $80,000,000 for second year funding to serve all eligible students in all Georgia counties. This funding level includes six professional positions and administrative costs within the Department of Education and grants to local service providers, which may include school systems as well as other service providers. The State Board of Education will administer the program and develop administrative procedures, rules and regulations to ensure its timely and effective implementation.
Helping Outstanding Pupils Educationally (HOPE) Scholarship Program.
This program is designed to increase higher education participation and completion rates for Georgia students. The Governor's recommendation for the HOPE program for FY 1995 consists of the following components. All Georgia high school students with a family income below $100,000 per year who graduate in the 1993 -94 school year with a minimum of a 3.0 cumulative grade point average in the college preparatory curriculum or a 3.2 cumulative grade point average in other curricula will receive a HOPE grant equal to the difference between the amount paid by Pell or other federal grants and the cost of tuition and mandatory fees at any Georgia public college which the student actually attends. The grant will be paid to the college. College sophomores with a family income below $100,000 per year who earned a 3.0 cumulative grade point average for their freshman year at a University System institution will receive a grant equal to the difference between the cost oftuition and the amount paid by Pell or other federal grants. College juniors with a family income below $100,000 per year who earned a 3.0 cumulative grade point average at the end of their sophomore year at a University System institution will receive a grant equal to the difference between the cost of tuition and the amount paid by Pell or other federal grants. An allowance for textbooks will also be provided all eligible students as part of the HOPE grant.
All students working towards a diploma at public technical institutes in the state will receive a grant equal to the cost ofthe amount oftuition not paid by Pell or other federal grant programs. Students, beginning with those graduating from high school in the 1992-93 school year, working towards a degree at public technical institutes in the state, who earned a minimum of 3.0 cumulative grade point average in the college preparatory curriculum or a 3.2 cumulative grade point average in other curricula in high school, will receive a HOPE grant equal to the difference between the cost of tuition and mandatory fees and the amount earned by Pell or other federal grant programs. An allowance for textbooks will also be provided all eligible students as part ofthe HOPE grant. Any Georgia resident who earns a GED, beginning July 1, 1993, will receive a certificate worth $500 which may be spent for education-related purposes such as tuition, books, supplies, or expenses related to the furtherance of the resident's postsecondary education.
A second-tier HOPE Tuition Equalization Grant of $1,000 per student will be given to all freshmen, sophomores and juniors who attend eligible postsecondary institutions in the state. This will be in addition to existing Tuition Equalization Grants.
The HOPE program will be administered by the Georgia Student Finance Commission. All non-administrative costs will be distributed to the University System and technical institutes. The total cost for this program is projected to be $87,948,601.
The Georgia Military College Scholarship Program will provide 30 military scholarships for Georgia Military College students as the first year of a planned two-year phase-in. Eligible students would receive a low interest loan which would be forgiven if the individual participates in the reserve or in active duty in the United States armed forces. Total cost for FY 1995 is $240,000.
Funds are also recommended to provide a full scholarship program for the dependent children of public safety officers killed or permanently disabled in the line of duty. The cost of this program for FY 1995 is $100,000.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GOVERNOR'S F.Y. 1995 RECOMMENDATIONS

Overcrowding in Regional Youth Development Centers (RYDCs)
$109,500 for 50 electronic monitoring slots. This will allow about 600 youth per year to avoid placement in a secure detention facility while awaiting trial or placement.
$700,000 in additional labor funds for Regional Youth Development Centers. Providing funds in this manner allows the flexibility to access the type of staff required at the most critical times.

rates from 40% to 45% of the cost of care. By providing more equitable payments, more facilities may be able to participate.
Alternatives to Youth Development Center Placement
$282,501 for an 8-bed group home to serve 14 to 16 youth annually. Additionally, 8 to 10 more youth can be served short term as an alternative to secure detention and an additional 50 on aftercare status.

$847,677 in State funds ($897,900 total funds) for 15 specialized care slots. These placements should accommodate the most troubled youth and contribute to more appropriate placement settings.
Education
$437,776 for 20 instructional aides, a special education coordinator and funds for training. The aides will assist teaching staff at Regional Youth Development Centers.

$343,323 for 40 Attention Home slots and support staff in each district to recruit and monitor the slots. Attention Homes are alternatives to secure detention and will serve 480 youth per year. Funded in continuation.

$994,783 in State funds ($1,744,560 total funds) for two 25-bed wilderness programs. Annually, 100 youth can be served in the residential setting and an additional 100 on aftercare status.

$200,000 in labor funds for intake and transportation. This will provide the opportunity for face to face intake and relieve court services worker caseloads. This should allow additional youth to be maintained in the community rather than secure detention. Funded in continuation.
$216,568 for 2 staff in Assessment and Classification and funds for 1,000 psychological evaluations. The tests and staff to administer and interpret them should enable quicker and more accurate decisions on placements, promoting a shorter stay in detention. Funded in continuation.
$103,000 to increase Institutional Foster Care

FUNCTIONAL BUDGET SUMMARY

The Court Services program provides intake, probation, counseling, supervision, detention planning, and aftercare supervision (supervision of youth released from institutions). The Intensive Supervision program is also part of Court Services. This program maintains contact with youth, several times a day in some cases, at school, work, and at home in order to ensure their compliance with the conditions of their release.

The Specialized Residential Services program provides residential treatment services for delinquent youth who need specialized care. These youth either require long-term residential placement or specialized treatment services. Services are obtained from the private sector. Many of the placements are in alcohol and drug treatment programs.

Other alternatives to incarceration include 3 day centers which function as alternative schools, 8 group homes, and 22 Community Treatment Centers. These centers provide after school programs which concentrate on behavior modification and employability skills. Multi-service centers are a new initiative. Currently in 3 urban areas of the state, they combine many of the above services under I roof.

Additionally, youth who are awaiting trial and who do not require secure detention are served in Attention Homes and youth who have been determined to be delinquent and who need to be away from their own parents but in a home environment are often placed in Contract Homes. These placements are supervised by Court Services Workers.

Of the 27,000 youth who receive Court Services, over 4,850 youth are served per year in the various community programs listed above. 539 staff comprise this function. State funds only.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GOVERNOR'S F.Y. 1995 RECOMMENDATIONS

$16,266,986 to provide for full-year operation of the 3,090 prison beds opened at facilities in Tattnall, Macon, Pulaski, Calhoun, Dooly and Wilcox Counties in F.Y. 1994.
$27,266,491 to open and operate the remaining 2,326 beds at these facilities. When fully opened, these facilities will have a total capacity of 5,416 and will complete the largest prison construction program in Georgia's history - a string of 13 prisons and 11 ,312 beds opened since 1991.
$7,839,739 in cash and $1,200,000 in bonds to open and operate 224 beds at the Pelham Pretransitional Center in Mitchell County and 448 beds at probation boot camps in Lanier and Emanuel Counties. When opened, these facilities will complete implementation of the Governor's comprehensive boot camp program. The full program consists of almost 5,000 beds in probation and correctional facilities ranging from small intensive discipline units within larger institutions to self-sufficient stand-alone detention centers and camps such as those in Lanier and Emanuel Counties.

The boot camp program has expanded and built upon the success of earlier alternative programs such as community service and special alternative incarceration. The program not only provides young offenders with an opportunity to learn selfdiscipline and life skills necessary for crime-free living, but diverts lower risk offenders into less costly facilities, freeing up hardened bedspace in

GEORGIA BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GOVERNOR'S F.Y. 1995 RECOMMENDATIONS

$520,000 to provide for ten additional GBI agents to be used as full-time supervisors to oversee the operations of multi-jurisdictional task forces statewide. These agents will have the training and experience, and will provide the leadership necessary to assist local governments in the area of drug enforcement. The success of this concept has led to the formation of a number of new task forces throughout the state. The GBI currently supervises 14 squads.

Officer Training for officers. DARE has served as a model prevention education program for agencies throughout the state. Its goal is to reduce the incidence of drug abuse by children through the presentation ofa prevention curriculum by specially selected and trained uniformed police officers.
$194,400 to establish a remote Automated Fingerprint Identification System (AFIS) in Albany,

Georgia via a grant included in the Department of Community Affairs. When implemented, local law enforcement operations in the southwest section of Georgia will be able to electronically transmit latent prints taken at crime scenes to GCIC for an immediate search of the AFIS files. Further, the process of taking and processing the "ten finger" fingerprints will be improved significantly.

$300,000 will establish regional medical examiner services to the southern portion of the state. The recently constructed Moultrie Branch Crime Laboratory will house this operation to include a full-time medical examiner serving approximately 50 counties. This will eliminate long distance transporting of bodies and will allow local law enforcement agencies to witness autopsies. The attendance of coroners and other authorized local agencies at autopsies is important background information for ease investigation.

G.B.I. AGENTS

356

$172,688 to begin a database file of DNA samples from every convicted sex offender in the state. This will improve the chance of matching the victims with their suspects. The file will make possible the identification of a suspect by comparing the DNA type of an unknown offender to those in the database.
$200,000 to expand the Drug Abuse Resistance Education Program (DARE) statewide. This provides for 2 additional agents, operation support and training material, used to conduct DARE

The Governor of the State of Georgia is the Chief Executive Officer of state government. Constitutionally, he is charged with executing the laws of the State and with conserving the peace as Commander-in-Chief of the Georgia National Guard. He is charged statutorily with a range of responsibilities including the economic and fiscal management of state government. He is responsible for appointing members to a great number of boards, commissions, councils, committees and other units of state government and appoints most department and agency heads. These various responsibilities placed upon the Governor require that he maintain close contact with Georgia citizens, with state officials and with representatives of the federal government and other state governments. With the increasing interest foreign governments and businesses have shown in the State of Georgia, a new dimension has been added to the responsibilities of the Governor making it necessary for him to maintain contact with international government and business leaders on a regUlar basis.
Because of the various demands made of him, the Governor requires a personal staff to assist him in scheduling his time, answering correspondence, writing speeches and preparing news releases, drafting legislation and advising him on legal matters, representing him at functions and events when he is otherwise committed, and in maintaining contact with citizens of Georgia, members of the General Assembly and state department and agency heads. The duties, including the administration of the Governor's Emergency Fund and the Governor's Intern Program, are performed by the Governor's personal staff.
Also included in the Office of the Governor is the Office of Planning and BUdget, which provides the Governor with assistance in the development of the State budget; with developing and updating annually a State Strategic Plan; with working with all State agencies in the development of their own strategic plan and ensuring that it conforms to the State plan; and with program evaluation, working with the State Auditor.

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GOVERNOR'S F.Y. 1995 RECOMMENDATIONS

$75.2 million to continue providing payments of medical services for Georgia's Medicaid eligible population. In F.Y. 1995, an estimated 1.2 million Georgians will be covered by Medicaid, representing 17% of the state's population.
While the Department has experienced 15% to 20% increases in benefit expenditures for the past several years, the rate of growth is expected to decline in F.Y. 1995. The Governor's F.Y. 1995 recommendation reflects a 7% increase over F.Y. 1994.
$31.7 million to increase reimbursement rates for 1,521 hospital, nursing home, and home health providers statewide. The Governor recommends updating cost reports and applying the most current inflation factors in order to maintain a fair reimbursement rate for these major providers of Medicaid services. Payments to these three provider groups comprise 59% of all Medicaid expenditures.
Effective July 1, 1993, a copayment program was implemented on outpatient hospital visits. Copayrnents help to contain increasing Medicaid costs by requiring some recipients to pay for a very nominal share of their escalating health care costs. The Governor recommends expanding the copayment program inF.Y. 1995 to 15 additional services which is estimated to save approximately $5.96 million in State funds in the first year. Pregnant women, children, nursing home residents, emergency services, pregnancy related

services, and family planning services would be exempt from the copayment requirements.
The Governor's recommendation reflects a $3 million savings in State funds from managed care initiatives. The Georgia Better Health Care initiative was implemented October 1, 1993 in 7 pilot counties: Baker, Columbia, Dougherty, Lee, Murray, Richmond, and Whitfield. Expected to cover 60,000 recipients, the program matches each recipient to a primary care provider to deliver and coordinate medical care.
The Governor also supports the use of Health Maintenance Organizations (HMO's) to provide medical care for Medicaid recipients based on a flat capitation rate. Targeted to begin July I, 1994, HMO's would be utilized in the metro Atlanta area initially with expansion to other large Georgia cities.

The Governor also recommends elimination of 11 positions and a reduction of $126,174 in Personal Services as a result of privatization of 4 in-house functions.

DEPARTMENT OF NATURAL RESOURCES

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GOVERNOR'S F.Y. 1995 RECOMMENDATIONS

$20,000,000 in G.O. bonds for the third year of funding for the Governor's Preservation 2000 Program. The Governor started this program in F.Y. 1993 with the goal of acquiring and preserving 100,000 acres of natural and environmentally sensitive land throughout the State. As of December 1993, 56,217 acres have been either acquired, leased long-term or approved for acquisition by the Department. An additional 35 sites totalling 36, 151 acres are under negotiation. The acquisition of some of these tracts will be deferred until the F. Y. 1995 funds become available.
$1,500,000 in G.O. bonds to construct a visitor center and develop a series of trails at Tallulah Gorge State Conservation Park in Habersham and Rabun Counties. This will match a private gift of $1,000,000 for land acquisition and park development. $144,000 in cash is also included to match $578,655 in federal Intermodal Surface Transportation Efficiency Act funds which will be used for multi-purpose trails and highway landscaping along Highway 441 at Tallulah Gorge.
$250,000 in G.O. bonds to construct a new tent and recreational vehicle camping area with power, water and restrooms at Lake Richard B. Russell State Park in Elbert County.
$400,000 in G.O. bonds to design, build and equip a 4,000 square foot interpretive center for Sapelo Island at the Meridian Dock in Mcintosh County to educate the public about Sapelo Island and the Estuarine Sanctuary.

$500,000 in G.O. bonds for pool and springs restoration at Warm Springs in Meriwether County.
$2,500,000 in G.O. bonds to build an 18-hole golf course at Laura S. Walker State Park in Ware County. Eighteen holes will be built and grown out during F.Y. 1995. The clubhouse and other buildings are scheduled for F. Y. 1996 funding.
$483,719 to develop additional public fishing areas and $357,767 to enhance management activities on wildlife management areas. This $841,486 is equal to the net increase in funds from the 1987 license fee increase.
$183,900 to implement and continue planning the Coastal Zone Management Program in the Coastal Resources division to foster economic growth, while at the same time, ensuring effective coastal protection.
$265,000 to initiate a Georgia Heritage 2000 Grants Program to assist communities in their efforts to preserve downtown and neighborhood districts.
$8,918,534 for the Hazardous Waste Trust Fund from the estimated F.Y. 1994 collections of fees paid by hazardous and solid waste handlers and the- excess F. Y. 1993 collections ($918,534).
$5,363,868 for the Solid Waste Trust Fund from the estimated F. Y. 1994 collections of fees paid on the sale of new tires and the excess F. Y. 1993 collections ($363,868).

$100,000 for an annual payment to Mcintosh County in lieu of ad valorem taxes. The Governor has also included $50,000 in his F.Y. 1994 amended budget recommendation for this.
$31,000 for travel and other expenses of the Georgia Civil War Commission.
$250,000 for the National Prisoner of War Museum which is currently being designed with federal funds and will be built at the Andersonville National Historical Site in Macon County. In 1970 Congress designated Andersonville as the National Memorial to all American Prisoners of War. It is the only remaining site in the United States that was actually a prisoner of war facility. Congress enacted legislation in 1993 authorizing a commemorative coin to raise funds for the museum. With issuance of the coin, museum construction should begin in December 1994.
The Governor has incorporated $225,500 in cost savings initiatives proposed by the Department in response to the Governor's request to all agencies for programs that could be privatized, downsized or eliminated. These cost savings include $107,500 from the elimination of lifeguard services at all state park beaches and the implementation of a swim at your own risk policy, $58,000 from the elimination of 2 vacant positions that were originally scheduled to perform timber tax exemption reviews and $60,000 and 1 position for the elimination of the parks exhibit unit. Future exhibit work will be contracted to commercial design shops.

The Coastal Resources Division is comprised of 23 full-time, permanent positions of which 7 are wildlife biologists. Operating through its Marine Fisheries Branch and the Ecological Services Branch, the division protects and conserves coastal Georgia's marshes, shorelines and marine fisheries resources. The primary objectives of the Marine Fisheries Branch are to ensure the optimum commercial and recreational use of marine fisheries resources and to conserve and restore populations of marine turtles and mammals. This is accomplished through research, artificial reef development and activities geared toward the protection of threatened and endangered marine species. Administration of the Coastal Marshlands Protection Act and the Shore Protection Act is the responsibility of the Ecological Services Branch. This branch also coordinates the state's Shellfish Sanitation Program in an effort to protect public health. Program activities involve monitoring water quality, classifying shellfish growing areas and issuing commercial harvest permits. In addition to the State funds for this function, the Governor's recommendation includes $116,866 in Federal funds for a total of $1,866,835.

5. Wildlife Resources

This function is divided organizationally into four main program areas: Administration (17 positions), Law Enforcement (254 positions), Fisheries Management (82 positions) and Game Management (121 positions). In addition to providing overall direction and support to the other Wildlife Resources sections, the Administration Section manages the NongamelEndangered Wildlife Program and the Freshwater Wetlands and Heritage Inventory Program. Much of the funding for the Nongame Program comes from private and corporate donations including the State Income Tax Check-Off. The latter program is involved with computer-assisted wetlands mapping and the cataloguing of rare plant and animal species.

Through its 7 regional offices, the 20 Wildlife Biologists and 41 Wildlife Technicians in Fisheries Management are responsible for providing quality fishing experiences for Georgians. This is achieved through the production of trout, striped bass and other fish at its 9 fish hatcheries and through the stocking of public waterways and private ponds, research and survey projects on public waters, management of 11 public fishing areas, inspection and construction of public boat ramps and the control of undesirable aquatic vegetation.

The Game Management Section's 21 Wildlife Biologists and 71 Wildlife Technicians manage the state's wildlife resources including game and nongame species. This is done primarily through the acquisition, development and habitat management of wildlife management lands. Approximately one million acres now managed by this section are used for hunting, birdwatching, hiking, primitive camping and other activities. The section also develops baseline animal population data to help establish hunting regulations (e.g. bag limits and season).

The Law Enforcement Section is comprised of 233 sworn officers who workout of 11 district offices. The officers' main responsibility is the enforcement of all game and fish and boating safety laws. However, the section also administers the Hunter Safety Program, provides aircraft support for the Department with 3 helicopters and 2 fixed-wing airplanes and staffs the 24-hour Emergency Response Center which field telephone reports of oil spills, radioactive and hazardous material releases, and accidents.

DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GOVERNOR'S F.Y. 1995 RECOMMENDATIONS

$1,000,00 to fund 25 additional sworn troopers to provide for critical security requirements, increased traffic enforcement and drug interdiction. In 1985, the authorized number of troopers allocated to the Department was 825. Nine years later the number is 879. The additional positions recommended by the Governor will bring the total number of sworn positions to 904. The role of a trooper has expanded over the years. A trooper no longer simply enforces traffic laws and investigates accidents. Drug trafficking has expanded and int~nsified the enforcement challenge. In recent years, techniques employed by the Georgia State Patrol have been recognized nationally as tactics for successful drug interdiction. These additional trooper positions will allow the Georgia State Patrol to continue to expand the scope of its enforcement activities.
$800,000 provides for the addition of 15 Drivers License Renewal Stations. The objective of establishing renewal stations is to relieve traffic at full service Drivers License Issuance Facilities. The Department of Public Safety currently has 59 permanent full service Drivers License Issuance Facilities and 11 Renewal Facilities. In addition, the Department has 2 mobile units for license issuance. The Drivers Services Section of the Department issues between 1.5 million and 1.9 million licenses each year. The location of these 15 new stations and 25 additional examiners will be where demand is greatest and improved services are needed.

$180,100 provides funding to increase the Basic Mandated Law Enforcement Training Course from 280 hours to 360 hours. The results of a comprehensive job task analysis conducted in 1988 revealed that law enforcement officers need an increased number of weeks of formalized basic training to effectively and safely perform the duties expected of them by citizens. For 17 years Georgia

required 240 hours (6 weeks) of basic training. As a result of increased funding provided in Fiscal Year 1993, the basic course was increased to 280 hours (7 weeks). The Governor's Fiscal Year 1995 recommendation provides for an additional 80 hours (2 weeks) of basic training for all entry level officers at no expense to local governments.

The Major Repair/ Rehabilitation Fund had been funded with G.O. bonds each year since Fiscal Year 1991.
$19.6 million to provide for a 3.5% increase in student enrollment at the 34 University System institutions.
$17.0 million to provide for other increases in the Board of Regents' funding formula. This includes a 3% increase in Operating Expenses ($2.5 million), an increase in operating costs for new facilities ($3.5 million), and a 7% increase in health insurance and other fringe benefits ($11.1 million).
$200,000 to fund additional projects (primarily those involving Georgia's traditional industries) in the Faculty Commercialization Program.
$175,000 to complete the planning and

development of the Geographic Information System focused on the economic development needs of the state and its regions.

DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GOVERNOR'S F.Y. 1995 RECOMMENDATIONS

$1,000,000 to begin development of a statewide integrated tag and title computer system. When completed, the new tag and title system will, for the first time, provide each of the 159 county tax commissioners' offices with access to a database containing up-to-date and accurate statewide tag and title information. This approach will improve and facilitate the maintenance, access and overall operation of the tag and title information database by the Department of Revenue's Motor Vehicle Division and those authorized to have access.
$1,446,300 to implement and continue interim measures to provide tag and title information to county tax commissioners' offices and improve customer service in the tag and title areas as follows:

information to dealers and financial institutions. This is expected to increase the use of the IVR for commercial requests for information and free up main phone lines for information requests from the general public.
- $571,300 for temporary and overtime labor to process title applications in an average of ten days
39

or less, extend one-day title processing services now available to "walk-ins" to mail-in applications, and provide 5-day title processing for replacement title applications.
$419,327 for 10 delinquent tax collectors and associated expenses to expand delinquent tax enforcement and collection.
Average Days to Issue a TItle

- $850,000 to provide for operation of a statewide computer network recommended for implementation in the F.Y. 1994 Amended Budget. This network would provide county tax commissioners' offices with on-line inquiry-only access to the state motor vehicle database. On-line access for counties will free up Motor Vehicle Division personnel to better serve the general public's information needs.

- $25,000 to activate additional phone lines on

the Motor Vehicle Division's Interactive Voice

Response system (IVR). During F.Y. 1994, the

department will eliminate the subscription fee for

the tags and titles Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system which provides tag and title

RECOMMENDED APPROPRIAnONS AS A PERCENTAGE OF THE BUDGET
0.02%

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE GOVERNOR'S F.Y. 1995 RECOMMENDATIONS

$400,000 to provide planning and preliminary

engineering fees for maintenance and repair of 354

watershed dams in the state. Focus will be on 141

watershed dams classified as Category 1.

In the mid-1950s, these watershed dams

were built under the small watershed program. The

primary purpose of these dams was for flood

prevention. Federal dollars for the construction of

these dams were provided through the United

States Department of Agriculture Soil Conservation

Service. Local soil and water conservation districts

are the sponsors of these projects.

The federal government relinquished

responsibility for operation and maintenance of

watershed dams constructed under the small

watershed program. The soil conservation districts

took responsibility for upkeep of

these dams. Under the "Georgia

Safe Dams Act of 1978",

Category 1 dams are ones "where

improper operation or dam failure

would result in probable loss of

human life". These dams must be

brought into compliance with the

regulations stated in the act.

In 1986, the General

Assembly exempted Category 1

dams from regulation until

November 1, 1990. The General

Assembly again exempted

Category 1 dams from regulation

90

until November 1, 1995.

It is recommended that the County Conservation Technician Grant Program be phased out at the end of this fiscal year. A program evaluation conducted under the Budget Accountability and Planning Act of 1993 shows that this program will meet those goals established at the onset of the program by the end of F.Y. 1994.
The County Conservation Grant Program was established in 1987 to help federal farm aid recipients meet the requirements of the 1985 Food Security Act. The act required recipients to develop and implement plans to prevent soil erosion problems on the lands that they farmed. Soil erosion prevention plans were to be completed by 1990 and implemented by 1995. Any recipient in non-compliance with this bill will lose all federal

farm aid benefits by 1995. Because this new legislation put. an
increased burden on an already understaffed federal Soil Conservation Service, the County Conservation Technician Grant Program was created to provide technical manpower to the federal Soil Conservation Service. These technicians currently work in those counties found to have large amounts of highly erodible lands. These technicians are employees of the counties in which they work. The state provides a salary supplement in conjunction with salary provided by the county.

The program was designed to last until the

beginning of F.Y. 1995. This would allow

adequate time to develop and implement plans for

the 950,119 acres of land

identified as highly erodible.

$1.91

Results show that 79 percent

of these acres have soil erosion

prevention plans which have

been developed and

implemented.

By the

beginning of F.Y. 1995, this

program will have

accomplished the goals and

objectives for which it was

established.

Phasing out

this program saves the state

95

$418,000 annually and is

considered a cost saving

initiative.

1. Administration 2. Field Operations

In the rural areas of the state, there are increasing demands for water quality control measures and soil erosion abatement strategies in arresting the movement of soils into Georgia's lakes and streams from cropland and in reducing the level of pollutants in the lakes and streams. In urban areas, Georgia's growth has created a shortage of expertise to provide technical guidance and oversight to developmental land-disturbing activities such as dredging, excavating and grading to name a few. The resulting impact of these activities is manifested in serious sedimentation problems in urban areas which threaten water quality, groundwater, stormwater capacities, lake capacities, wildlife habitat, flood plains, and property values. The State Soil and Water Conservation Commission and the State's 40 Soil and Water Conservation Districts are charged with and empowered to provide guidance, coordination and assistance in the planning and implementation of conservation projects that address these issues. Agency services are provided through a central district administration section and 6 regional offices. A total of 9 positions including an executive director is assigned to the central office. This unit performs all administrative and clerical functions for Commission conservation projects including personnel, procurement, payroll, accounting and other functions. Two positions have also been allocated to coordinate training and site investigations and provide oversight and technical support to district field operations in erosion control and pollution matters. Central administrative functions account for approximately 41% of the estimated cost to fund agency activities. In addition to the State funds for this function, the Governor's recommendation includes Federal funds of $12,305 for a total of $631,165.
The agency allocates a regional representative and secretary to each of its 6 regional offices and assigns 2 erosion control specialists to serve the metropolitan counties for a total of 14 positions. This section provides technical assistance to landowners and governmental units; conducts reviews of erosion control plans submitted by developers; assists individuals and groups in the application of conservation practices; performs soil surveys; and provides demonstrations, tours and seminars on nonpoint source pollution. In addition to the State funds for this function, the Governor's recommendation includes Federal funds of$544,351 for a total of $1,433,401.

WORKERS' COMPENSATION PREMIUM
To adequately provide for the State's Self-Insured Workers' Compensation plan, a premium payment of $58,816,684 in Total funds for F.Y. 1995 is recommended. The State's Workers' Compensation plan provides coverage to over 115,000 employees of State agencies, authorities, commissions and boards, as well as county health departments. Additional funds are necessary to cover an anticipated increase of weekly benefits from $250 to $300, and for rising medical costs. Workers' Compensation expenses are affected by increases in medical costs, litigation expenses, weekly benefit payments, and an expanding defmition of work-related injuries eligible for benefits. National trends show that in 1980 the average lost time and medical case combined cost was $6,138. In 1990, the average had increased to $19,444. While the State's Workers' Compensation average cost per employee in 1990 was about half the national average, the percentage of medical costs to the total was higher than the national average. In 1990 medical costs accounted for 54% of the State's Workers' Compensation costs compared to 44% nationally. In Fiscal Year 1980, the State's medical average cost per case was under $2,000. In Fiscal Year 1990, the State's medical average cost per case had increased to almost $5,000. Listed below are each agency's Workers' Compensation premium for F.Y. 1995:

EXPLANATION: Continuation - The Governor recommends that $50,355,000 from previously authorized but unissued bond projects ($36,855,000 for the construction ofa children's medical center at the Medical College of Georgia and $13,500,000 for the Savannah Harbor Deepening project) be de-authorized. The children's medical center is in the design phase and will not be ready for construction until F.Y. 1996. The funding for the Savannah Harbor project is available because the construction bids were significantly below budgeted projections. The Governor recommends that the following projects, which will not require an additional debt service appropriation and do not increase the State's new debt authorization, be authorized: $27,440,000 for design. site work and construction of a 1,000 space parking deck at the Georgia World Congress Center; $7,500,000 to provide State matching funds for land acquisition and initial site work for the Georgia International Maritime Trade Center in Savannah; $4,700,000 to replace one computer processor in the State's Consolidated Computer Center; $4.200,000 for land costs associated with the construction of the Olympic Village dormitory at Georgia Tech; $3,730,000 to complete the renovation of the kitchen at Central State Hospital; and $2,785,000 to purchase equipment for six technical institutes under construction in Augusta, Eastman, Griffin, Macon, Marietta and Thomaston. The Governor also recommends that the net State fund requirement of $368,500,933 be appropriated. This total amount for issued debt utilizes $61,000.000 from motor fuel tax receipts in lieu of State general funds to meet debt service requirements on outstanding issues sold on behalf of the Department of Transportation. Improvements - The Governor recommends $50.956.530 in additional debt service payments to authorize the following amount of General Obligation Bonds recommended to be sold in F.Y. 1995.

GLOSSARY

AGENCY FUNDS: Funds collected by the various agencies of State Government and retained to be spent on agency programs. These funds are estimated in the Governor's Budget Report and the Appropriation Act. The agencies increase or decrease these funds by amendments to the Annual Operating Budget as actual collections occur during the year. Also known as Other Funds.

ALLOTMENT: The authorization for a State agency to withdraw funds from the State treasury for expenditure. Before an allotment is granted, however, each budget unit is required to file a quarterly work program with the Office of Planning and Budget (OPB) no later than 20 days before the beginning of each quarter of the fiscal year. The work program must include the portion of the appropriation that will be required for the quarter's expenditures based on the budget. After the work program is approved, the State Treasury records an "allotment payable" from which the State agency can draw cash as needed.

AMENDED BUDGET REPORT: A document submitted by the

Governor to the General Assembly in which the Governor

recommends spending changes in the current fiscal year for the

agencies of State Government. The Amended Budget Report can

recommend budget additions, budget deletions or transfers of funds

within object classes of an agency. Also

known as the

"supplemental budget" or the "little budget."

ANNUAL OPERATING BUDGET: A document that details those funds appropriated to a State budget unit. The operating budget for each. State agency details the appropriations passed by the General Assembly for that agency with schedules on object classes such as personal services, motor vehicle purchases, equipment, real estate rentals, per diem, fees and contracts, computer charges, capital outlay, Federal funds and other funds.

ANNUAL OPERATING BUDGET AMENDMENT: Revisions to the annual operating budget which must be submitted to the Office of Planning and Budget for approval. Typically, these revisions are due to the receipt of funding that was not included during the

appropriation process or transfer of funds from one activity/function to another.
APPROPRIATION: An authorization by the General Assembly to a State agency to spend, from public funds, a sum of money not in excess of the sum specified for the purposes in the authorization.
APPROPRIATION ACT: Legislation that has been passed by the General Assembly to authorize expenditure of State, Federal and other funds during a given fiscal year.
APPROPRIATION BILL: Legislation pending action by the General Assembly to authorize expenditures for a given fiscal year. When passed, it becomes an Appropriation Act.
ATTACHED AGENCIES: Small agencies are sometimes attached to a larger State agency for "administrative purposes only" to reduce administrative costs by consolidation. Authorities by law cannot directly receive State funds and are attached to budgeted State agencies for any State appropriations that might occur.
ATTRITION: A means of reducing State employment, especially during economic slowdowns, by eliminating positions as they become vacant rather than filling them with new employees.
AUSTERITY REDUCTIONS: Spending cuts throughout all departments of State Government as a result of slower growth in revenues than expected, resulting in projected shortfalls in anticipated revenue growth.
AUTHORITY: A public corporation which, prior to the State being able to issue general obligation bonds, issued revenue bonds to construct public facilities.
AUTHORITY LEASE RENTAL: Mandatory appropriations required by the State Constitution to repay bonds that have been sold by the authorities described above. The last of these securities will mature in F.Y. 1998 for the Jekyll Island-State Park Authority.

BUDGET: A complete financial plan for a specific fiscal year as proposed in the Governor's Budget Report and as modified and adopted by appropriation and revenue acts.
BUDGET ACCOUNTABILITY AND PLANNING ACT: An Act passed by the 1993 General Assembly that fundamentally changes Georgia's budget process. The Act makes accountability and efficiency the driving forces behind budget decisions, as well as the attainment of agreed-upon directions which have been outlined in comprehensive strategic plans for the State and each agency. Expenditures will be more closely linked to program achievements and outcomes. The measure mandates an ongoing review of agency continuation budgets and a more detailed review of expenditures at the individual program level. Agencies are encouraged to implement cost-saving measures through a system of monetary incentives that allows them to retain a portion of savings. Procedures and requirements for grant awards by State agencies are also established.
BUDGET CLASS: A kind of expenditure denoting a class of service or commodities purchased or properties acquired as specified in the classification of expenditures under State law for use in expenditure accounting, in the making of budget estimates, and in the budget reports and budgets. Also known as an object class.
BUDGET CYCLE: A period of time in which a specific budget is in effect, usually 12 months.
BUDGET ESTIMATE: A statement which accompanies explanations, as required by State law, in which a budget unit states its financial requirements and requests appropriations. Also known as an agency's budget request which must be submitted to OPB by September 1 of each year for requests pertaining to the next fiscal year.
BUDGET MESSAGE: A speech by the Governor to the General Assembly in which the Governor outlines his spending proposals and recommendations for additional revenues, if any, that are

452

GLOSSARY

embodied in an acccompanying budget document. The formal budget message, dealing with the outyear budget, is made to a joint session during the first week that the Legislature convenes. A speech detailing the Governor's Amended Budget recommendations is made to a joint session of the House and Senate Appropriations Committees during the week before the session.
BUDGET REPORT: A document which displays all programs, efforts and expenditures which are recommended by the Governor for each agency during a specific fiscal year. The Budget Report includes the Governor's estimate of State revenue to be available during the fiscal year. Also known as the "big budget," the "outyear budget," or the "Governor's budget."BUDGET UNIT: A department, institution, agency or other unit of organization which has, under general law, an independent existence and thus is authorized to receive and expend an appropriation.

CAPITAL OUTLAY: A budget object class by which cash is appropriated to construct or renovate public facilities.
COMMON OBJECT CLASS: A term which includes the following object classes: personal services, regular operating expenses, travel, motor vehicle equipment purchases, postage, equipment purchases, computer charges, real estate rentals and telecommunications. The object classes are common because they are shared in all or part by nearly every agency.
CONFERENCE COMMITTEE: A group of 6 legislators--3 Representatives and 3 Senators--who are appointed by the presiding officers of the respective houses to reconcile different versions of the appropriation bills that have been passed by the House and the Senate.
CONTINUATION FUNDS: Funds that are appropriated to continue delivering the same level of services during the next fiscal year that is currently being provided by a State agency. Sometimes called current services funds.

DEDICATED FUNDS: Funds collected from a specific revenue source that must be appropriated for a specific expenditure. An example in Georgia is motor fuel tax funds, which must be constitutionally appropriated for programs related to providing and maintaining an adequate system of public roads and bridges.
DEBT LIMITATION: The State Constitution places a ceiling on State indebtedness by limiting general obligation bond debt service payments to 10 percent of net treasury receipts for the prior fiscal year.
EMERGENCY FUND: An appropriation to the Office of the Governor that is set aside for the Governor to provide grants to State agencies to meet emergency needs. Grants from the fund cannot involve a recurring obligation.
ENTITLEMENT PROGRAMS: Certain programs, usually Federal in origin, that provide benefits to individuals based on specific eligibility requirements. Examples are Medicaid and AFDC benefits.
FEDERAL FUNDS: Funding from the Federal Government to pay for all or portions of specific programs. Often, Federal funds require a State fund "match" in order to receive the Federal money.
FISCAL AFFAIRS SUBCOMMITTEE: Twenty members of the House of Representatives and the Senate comprise the Fiscal Affairs Subcommittee, which is authorized to meet when the General Assembly is not in session to consider fiscal affairs transfers as described above at the request of the Governor. The membership includes 5 State Representatives appointed by and including the Speaker, 5 Senators appointed by and including the Lieutenant Governor and 5 members of each house appointed by the Governor.
FISCAL AFFAIRS TRANSFER: Appropriations are made through allocations to specific object classes, and funds must be spent within those object classes. Language in each Appropriation Act states that "...no funds whatsoever, shall be transferred between object

classes without the prior approval of at least II members of the Fiscal Affairs Subcommittee in a meeting called to consider said transfers. This...shall apply to all funds of each budget unit whatever source derived." Fiscal affairs transfers can be considered at any time at the Governor's request but are usually considered near the end of the fiscal year to help agencies meet emergency needs and to address unanticipated budget problems.
FISCAL YEAR: Any 12-month period at the end of which financial accounts are balanced. The State fiscal year begins July I and ends June 30. The Federal fiscal year begins October 1 and ends September 30.
FRINGE BENEFITS: Benefits that are provided to State employees over and above their salaries, as an inducement to employment. These benefits include retirement, health insurance and employer Social Security contributions. Fringe benefits in Georgia's State Government equal about 36 percent of an employee's salary.
FUNCTIONAL BUDGET: A group of related activities aimed at accomplishing a major service or program for which a unit of government is responsible. Used synonymously with activity.

GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS: Bonds sold by the Georgia State Financing and Investment Commission on behalf of the State of Georgia that are backed by "the full faith, credit and taxing power of the State." The funds derived from the sale of these bonds are to be used for various capital outlay projects or the management of State debt.
GUARANTEED REVENUE BONDS: Bonds which have principal

453

GLOSSARY

and interest payable from earnings of a public enterprise. The State is required by law to appropriate one year's debt payment and retain the total at that level until the bonds have been retired. Guaranteed Revenue Bonds can only be issued for specific purposes as outlined in the State Constitution.
IMPROVEMENT FUNDS: Appropriations that are earmarked to expand existing programs or launch new programs that provide services to the citizens and taxpayers of Georgia.
INDIGENT CARE TRUST FUND: A program, recently revamped due to new Federal regulations, which involves the use of Medicaid funds to compensate disproportionate share hospitals for indigent care and to support expanded primary care programs. Participating hospitals make payments into the Trust Fund and these payments are used to match with Medicaid funds. Most of the funds are then returned to the hospitals, with a small amount used for State-level programs. An amendment to the State Constitution authorized the newly revamped program.
INDIRECT FUNDING: The Appropriation Act each year allocates $16.1 million in direct funding to the Department of Administrative Services for computer and telecommunications services to be provided to seven State agencies. These funds are allocated in this manner to facilitate cash flow for DOAS, but are available to DOAS only as services are provided to each agency.
INTER-AGENCY TRANSFER: A transfer of funds between State Departments, either in an Appropriation Act or by the State Office of Planning and Budget pursuant to a legislative authorization.
LAPSE: The automatic termination of an appropriation. Appropriations are made for a single fiscal year. At the end of that period, any unexpended or unencumbered fund balances lapse into the State's general treasury, unless otherwise provided by law. There are two kinds of lapses. Non-allotted lapses occur when appropriations are never allotted to a State agency for expenditure and automatically revert to the State treasury on June 30 of each year. Audited lapses occur when budgeted funds are allotted to a

State agency for expenditure but are not spent. These unspent funds are identified and lapsed by the State Auditor in the annual audit of each State agency.
LAPSE FACTOR: A budgeting tool that withholds funds from appropriations, based on anticipated employee turnover and lower employee replacement costs.
LEGISLATIVE BUDGET OFFICE: An agency within the Legislative Branch that serves as budget advisor to the General Assembly.
LINE-ITEM APPROPRIATION: A specific appropriation spelled out in language in the Appropriation Act that authorizes specific expenditures for each State agency.
LUMP SUM: A single appropriation for a specific purpose that does not specify a breakdown by object class.
MATCHING FUNDS--A type of Federal or State grant that requires the government or agency receiving the grant to commit a certain amount of matching funding to a program before funding is made available by the granting authority.
MIDTERM ADJUSTMENT: Additional appropriations to the State Board of Education in an Amended or Supplementary Budget to fund State Quality Basic Education (QBE) requirements for increased enrollment. Initial QBE funding cannot fully and accurately anticipate future enrollment. Midterm adjustments in funding are based on full-time equivalent enrollment counts during the fall quarter. The midterm for F.Y. 1994 totaled $68,800,000.
MIDYEAR ADJUSTMENT RESERVE: A Reserve of funds that is set aside each year from prior fiscal year surplus funds to provide additional spending for State agencies in an Amended or Supplementary Budget. The Reserve totals one percent of the prior year's net revenue collections, to the extent that surplus funds are available. It is established prior to the Revenue Shortfall Reserve, which is explained elsewhere.

MOTOR FUEL RESERVES. All motor fuel funds are allocated for public roads and bridges by the State Constitution. If actual motor fuel tax collections exceed the estimate, these funds are set aside in a reserve and are appropriated in a subsequent Appropriation Act.
NON-APPROPRIATED FUNDS: Monies that are received or spent that are not contemplated by an Appropriation Act. These funds must be amended into an agency's budget through a request to the Office of Planning and Budget.
OBJECT CLASS: A grouping of similar items of expenditures, such as personal services, regular operating expenses, travel, etc. Object classes are established to record expenditures as shown in the Appropriation Act. Establishment and changes to budget object classes are coordinated with the State Auditor's Chart of Accounts to ensure consistency in statewide financial reports.
OFFICE OF PLANNING AND BUDGET (OPB): OPB is a part of the Governor's Office with the responsibility of providing the Governor with assistance in the development and management of the State budget. OPB also is responsible for assisting the Governor in developing a State Strategic Plan and ensuring that each individual agency strategic plan is consistent with the State plan. In addition, OPB is responsible for working with the State Auditor's Office in evaluating each program in State Government at least once every 10 years. The Governor is the Director of the Budget.
ORIGINAL APPROPRIATION: An appropriation made in the first budget approved for a fiscal year.
OTHER FUNDS: Funds received by State agencies and institutions for services performed such as patient receipts in hospitals or tuition fees paid by students to colleges or universities. These funds are not turned into the State treasury but are retained by agencies and spent in accordance with an Appropriation Act or State law. Also known as agency funds.
OUTCOME-BASED BUDGETING: A form of budgeting in which

454

GLOSSARY

resources are al10cated in such a way as to achieve specified, agreed-upon outcomes--for instance, a reduction in infant mortality. The emphasis is shifted from reporting efforts to reporting results.
PERFORMANCE MEASURES: Quantitative and qualitative indicators by which the performance of a program can be assessed against goals and objectives.
PERSONAL SERVICES: The cost of State employees, including salary, fringe benefits and other expenses. This also includes temporary labor.
REVENUE ESTIMATE: An estimate of revenues which will be collected by the State during a fiscal year that will be available for appropriation. These revenues include taxes, fees and sales, and other general revenues which flow into the State treasury and become available for expenditure as approved by the General Assembly. The estimate is made by the Governor and can be amended by the Governor in making recommendations to the General Assembly.
REVENUE SHORTFALL RESERVE: An account established by the State Auditor to make up shortages in revenue collections at the end of the fiscal year. More commonly known as the rainy day fund. The reserve is equal to three percent of the State's prior year's net revenue collections, to the extent that surplus is available. Funds are set aside in the Revenue Shortfall Reserve only after the Midyear Adjustment Reserve is fully funded.
STATE AID: Grants and other funding provided by Georgia's State Government to assist cities, counties, public schools and other allied groups in providing various services and programs to the citizens of Georgia.
STATEMENT OF FINANCIAL CONDITION: A statement which discloses the assets, liabilities, reserves and equities of a fund or governmental unit at a specified date properly classified to exhibit the financial position of the fund or unit at that date. This

statement is published by the State Auditor at the end of each fiscal year.
STATE TREASURY: A function of State Government that receives, manages, invests and allocates all State revenues that are available for expenditure through the State's general fund budgetary process.
STRATEGIC PLANNING: The process through which a preferred future direction and organizational mission are established and periodically updated in light of changing trends and issues. Goals, objectives and strategies are adopted and implemented to guide an organization toward that preferred future direction. Senate Bill 335 requires a statewide strategic plan and a separate plan for each State agency.
SUBOBJECT CLASS: The lowest level of detail used in recording expenditures.
SUPPLEMENTARY BUDGET: Midyear additions to the Appropriation Act, usually passed early in the session for projects with a high time priority. No fund reductions or transfers between object classes are permitted in a supplementary budget. Only fund increases are allowed. Single purpose supplementary bills are referred to as "speedy bills" when timing is important.
SURPLUS: Surplus funds represent those funds not spent at the end of a fiscal year. They come from two sources: excess revenue collections over the revenue estimate, and unspent appropriations that were lapsed back to the State Treasury and are available for reappropriation.
UNIQUE OBJECT CLASS: A grouping of similar items of expenditures that are unique to a particular State agency, or to only a few agencies. Examples include public library materials and drivers license processing.
UNIT: A State agency or a division within an agency that is authorized to receive an appropriation. Functions or activities are

a part of a unit.
USER TAXES AND FEES: Charges associated with using a particular service provided by State Government to its citizens. The charge generally recovers the cost of providing the service. Examples include State park receipts and drivers license issuance.
VETOES: The Governor is empowered to veto an entire Appropriation Act or line-item veto an individual appropriation.
