STATE OF GEORGIA
OFFICE OF THE GOVERNOR
ATLANTA 30334-0900
TO THE MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY
An old proverb reminds us that to change and to change for the better are two different things. Georgia's current economic state is no secret. Like most of America, we have experienced our share of declining revenues. We are now faced with the challenge of how we meet the human needs of our citizens. The choice becomes, do we simply make the cuts that tide us over until economic recovery begins, or do we make institutional changes to the way we treat the taxpayers' resources? Do we choose to change... or to change for the better?
I choose to change for the better. I believe we have a rare opportunity in our State's history to reform the budget process. We must return to an era of true results-based budgeting. Every year we will examine each agency or department's funding request in its entirety. We must exercise fiscal discipline. Line items that are no longer needed or do not mesh with our core principles and priorities will be eliminated. We must carry out a sustained series of performance audits to ensure that Georgians are receiving optimal value for their tax dollars.
We are stewards, not merely appropriators. That philosophy will permeate my Administration and will be reflected in every budget I submit to the General Assembly, starting with the Amended Fiscal Year (AFY) 2003 Budget I now present.
While this budget recommendation is not as robust as in recent years, I believe it is a necessary first step on the road to a healthier economy for the State of Georgia. This year's AFY 2003 Budget Recommendation includes a reduction of $620 million to the FY 2003 estimate. Our current economic conditions also require us to use a portion of the Revenue Shortfall Reserve and enact a modest excise tax increase on tobacco targeted at improving the health of Georgians. There are very few enhancements that I am able to recommend, but those that are recommended reflect the true human needs of Georgians.
An educated Georgia is the cornerstone of economic development and our future quality of life. We cannot afford to shortchange the children of our State and those who seek higher education. Therefore, the reductions to the QBE formula and to formulas for the University System and Technical and Adult Education are 3% less than the reductions to most agencies. I am committed to working with the State Superintendent and local school systems in helping them address these reductions. There is also $117 million for mid-year adjustment for enrollment growth including 36 additional principals at new schools. I am also recommending $1.137 million for additional funds to provide the 10% salary supplement for the 380 teachers who achieved National Board Certification in 2002. This will bring the total of National Board Certified teachers in Georgia to 815.
I propose $7.1 million to provide for an increase in the students who are eligible for the HOPE Scholarship Program in public, private, and technic al colleges. In the University System, I am recommending $7.5 million for Special Funding Initiatives related to improving the internet connectivity infrastructure, upgrading Galileo, and improving the electronic delivery of instruction and services to students.

MEMBERS OF THE GENERAL ASSEMBLY PAGE 2
Our most important resources are our young people and our families. What more important priority could we set than a safe Georgia for our children? I am recommending $9.4 million to provide additionalfunds for Specialized Foster Care services. Our children's safety in foster care and emergency shelters must be ensured. I am also recommending $2.9 million to support the closure of the Fulton and DeKalb County emergency shelters for children and adole scents and to seek alternative placements and services for those housed there. Additionally, I am recommending $2.2 million to move all children and adolescents into long-term residential placements from institutional settings to the community as part of the FY 2003 Olmstead workplan.
A growing Georgia is a priority. We need to continue to help our rural communities attract businesses to their area and enhance existing efforts. In order to boost economic viability, I am recommending $3.15 million to the Jekyll Island Authority for the final phase of improvements to the historic district and to provide design funds for improvements to the convention center. We continue to improve Georgia's harbors, and this year I am recommending $1.5 million in bonds for the Georgia Ports Authority for expenses related to the deepening of Brunswick Harbor. To continue our training efforts for new and expanding businesses, I am recommending $14.75 million in bonds for a new visual communications building at North Georgia Technical College and $15.1 million in bonds to construct and equip a specialized training facility in Pooler, which will spur much-needed economic development and job creation in that region of our State.
We are all committed to a healthy Georgia. However, healthcare costs in Georgia and to state government continue to rise year after year, particularly in Medicaid. We must begin to address the current and long-term health of Georgians in an aggressive manner. By utilizing a strategy that many other states have employed and with the support of the medical community, I propose to increase the excise tax on tobacco products. This action will prevent as many as 3,500 teenagers per year from starting to smoke and encourage many of our adult citizens to quit smoking. This will also curb use of other harmful tobacco products.
According to the American Lung Association, the overall long-term health savings to Georgia and its citizens is projected to be almost $1 billion. Revenue produced by the proposed increase will be directed to offset increases in healthcare costs to the State.
While we face this time of slow economic growth, we must ensure that the level of service excellence provided to our citizens is not compromised. You will find this Amended Budget proposal to be a fiscally sound and more importantly a prudent use of our taxpayers' resources.
I am committed to upholding this philosophy of good stewardship throughout my Administration.
Sincerely,
[signed]
Sonny Perdue SP

RECOMMENDED DISTRIBUTION OF LOTTERY PROCEEDS

State law (50-27-1 et seq. O.C.G.A.) provides that the proceeds from the lottery be appropriated for programs in four areas: scholarships and student loans; voluntary prekindergarten for four-year-olds; technology for education including the costs of providing technology training to teachers and repairing and maintaining instructional technology; and capital improvements for education. Available lottery funds are now projected to be $791,833,422 for FY 2003. The Governor recommends moving $126,795,656 to the FY 2004 budget to cover projected expenditures leaving $665,037,776 for the following programs.
VOLUNTARY PRE-KINDERGARTEN FOR FOUR-YEAR OLDS
The pre-kindergarten (Pre-K) program is designed to give Georgia's four-year olds developmentally appropriate programs to enable them to begin kindergarten ready to learn. The Governor recommends adding $7,454,344 for a total cost of $253,910,163 for FY 2003.
The Pre-K program provides education for four-year olds at both public and private pre-kindergarten sites throughout the State. Approximately 57% of Pre-K students are in private centers. Included in the Amended FY 2003 budget is $6,146,791 for an additional 2,900 students to attend pre-kindergarten, bringing the total students served in the 2002-2003 school year to more than 65,300.
The formula for determining funds necessary for the Pre-K program is based on a classroom of 20 students taught by a lead teacher and an assistant teacher. Also included in the formula is an allowance for educational materials, regular operating expenses, and the equipment costs of opening a new Pre-K classroom. FY 2003 Lottery funds are also used to provide age-appropriate educational books to Pre-K students, operate classrooms in remote areas of the State, and coordinate educational resources for prekindergarten students.
Also in the Amended FY 2003 budget for the Pre-K program is $511,248 for new students in at-risk programs to extend their day to fully participate in the Georgia Pre-K program. This brings the total funding for this program component in FY 2003 to $2,161,248.
HELPING OUTSTANDING PUPILS EDUCATIONALLY (HOPE) AND OTHER SCHOLARSHIP PROGRAMS
These programs are designed to increase higher education participation and completion rates for Georgia students. The Governor's recommendation for the HOPE program for FY 2003 consists of the following components.

All Georgia high school students who graduated in 1993 and after with a minimum 3.0 cumulative grade point average in the college preparatory curriculum will be eligible to receive a HOPE scholarship at any Georgia public institution or eligible private college in the state. College sophomores who were eligible for a HOPE scholarship in 1993-1994 and after who earned a 3.0 cumulative grade point average for their freshman year will receive grants for their sophomore year. Beginning in the 1997-1998 school year, college sophomores who achieved a 3.0 cumulative grade point average in their freshman year, whether or not they were eligible for HOPE scholarships in their freshman year, are eligible for HOPE scholarships in their sophomore year. College juniors who earned a 3.0 cumulative grade point average at the end of their sophomore year will receive scholarships for their junior year. HOPE scholars in 1993-1994 and after who lost HOPE eligibility after their freshman year, but achieved a 3.0 cumulative grade point average at the end of their sophomore year, will receive grants for their junior year. College seniors who earned HOPE scholarships at the end of their sophomore year and who maintained a 3.0 cumulative grade point average at the end of their junior year will receive scholarships for their senior year. HOPE scholarship awards for eligible students attending public institutions will be equal to the cost of tuition and mandatory fees, plus an allowance for textbooks. HOPE scholarship awards for freshmen, sophomores and juniors enrolled at eligible private colleges in Georgia, who meet the academic requirements described above, will receive funds equal the cost of tuition and mandatory fees up to a maximum of $3,000. HOPE scholarships will be awarded in addition to existing state-funded Tuition Equalization Grants (TEG).
All students working toward a diploma or certificate at public colleges or technical colleges in the state will receive a HOPE grant equal to the cost of tuition and mandatory fees, plus an allowance for textbooks. There are no grade point requirements for a HOPE grant. Students, beginning with those who graduated from high school in 1993, who are working toward a degree at public technical colleges in the state, and who earned a minimum 3.0 cumulative grade point average in the college preparatory curriculum will receive a HOPE scholarship. Beginning in the 1997-1998 school year, students working toward a degree at public colleges in the state who earned a 3.0 cumulative grade point average in their freshman year, whether or not they were eligible for HOPE scholarship in their freshman year, will be eligible for a HOPE scholarship for their sophomore year. Prior to FY 2001 scholarships were equal to the cost of tuition and mandatory fees plus an allowance for textbooks. Effective in FY 2001, HOPE scholarships and grants are no longer offset by Pell grants earned by eligible students. Beginning July 1, 1993, any Georgia resident

RECOMMENDED DISTRIBUTION OF LOTTERY PROCEEDS

who earns a GED 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.
The Georgia Student Finance Commission administers the HOPE program. All non-administrative costs are distributed to the University System, technical colleges and eligible private colleges. The Governor recommends adding $7,098,470 to HOPE scholarships and grants for a total cost of $373,238,042 for FY 2003.
The Georgia Military Scholarship program provides up to 78 military scholarships for Georgia Military College students. Eligible students receive a low interest loan, which will be forgiven if the individual participates in the reserve or in active duty in the United States armed forces. The increase to this program is $144,373 for a total cost of $808,333 for FY 2003.
The Law Enforcement Personnel Dependents Scholarship provides a full scholarship to the dependent children of public safety officers killed or permanently disabled in the line of duty. The cost of this program for FY 2003 is $246,024.
The HOPE Teacher Scholarship program provides service-cancelable loans to teachers who desire to obtain advanced degrees in teaching areas in which the supply of prospective teachers is in critical shortage, or who desire to enhance their critical teaching skills. Recipients who teach four years in Georgia public schools after receiving the loan will have their loans canceled. Others will have one-fourth of the loan canceled for each year they teach in Georgia public schools. The increase to this program is $1,128,040 for a total cost of $5,332,698 for FY 2003.
The PROMISE Scholarship program provides servicecancelable loans of $3,000 per year to eligible, high achieving students who aspire to be teachers in Georgia public schools. Students, both residents and non-resident, who have completed their first two years of coursework in public or private colleges with a minimum cumulative grade point average of 3.0 will be eligible to receive the loans. For each year a Promise scholar teaches in the public schools after graduation, one-fourth of the loan will be considered repaid, so that after four years of teaching the

loan will be repaid in full. Loan funds may be used at the student's discretion for tuition, dormitory fees, childcare, transportation or other expenses related to education. The increase to this program is $1,740,802 for a total cost of $8,855,278 for FY 2003.
The PROMISE II Scholarship provides cancelable loans to teacher aides or paraprofessionals displaced when class sizes were lowered. Paraprofessionals and instructional aides working in Georgia during the 19992000 school year will be eligible for this program. The increase to this program is $288,405 for a total cost of $847,495 for FY 2003.
The Engineering Scholarships are provided as servicecancelable loans to Georgia residents, who are engineering students at private accredited engineering universities in Georgia and to retain them as engineers in the state. Recipients must work in an engineering-related field one year for each $3,500 received. The FY 2003 cost of this program is projected to be $760,000.
An additional $11,074,422 is recommended by the Governor in the Amended FY 2003 budget for all scholarship, loan and grant programs bringing the total cost in FY 2003 to $390,887,625.
TECHNOLOGY EXPENDITURES FOR EDUCATION
For the Board of Regents and the University System of Georgia the following is recommended in the Amended FY 2003 budget: Equipment and Technology Trust Fund ($12,000,000), continuation of the Chancellor's special funding initiatives ($7,509,000), and the purchase of educational programming and funds for the Georgia Public Telecommunications Commission ($2,000,000). Lottery funds to the University System in the FY 2003 budget total $21,509,000.
Over the past two years, the HOPE Scholarship and Grant program has seen substantial growth. Due to this growth, lottery expenditures for capital outlay and technology will begin to be phased out starting in FY 2003. All lottery reserves will be preserved to cover future cost of HOPE, scholarship assistance, and Pre-Kindergarten programs. This will ensure that these programs will be available for future generations.
