1 other than taxation, and an estimate of the amount required to
2 be raised by taxation. The amounts recommended by the Governor
3 for appropriation to the respective departments, offices and
4 institutions shall be formulated according to the various
5 functions and activities for which the respective department,
6 office or institution of the State government (including the
7 elective officers in the executive department and including the
8 University of Illinois and the judicial department) is
9 responsible. The amounts relating to particular functions and
10 activities shall be further formulated in accordance with the
11 object classification specified in Section 13 of the State
12 Finance Act.
13     The Governor shall not propose expenditures and the General
14 Assembly shall not enact appropriations that exceed the
15 resources estimated to be available, as provided in this
16 Section. Within 30 calendar days after the Governor acts upon
17 the appropriations enacted by the General Assembly, the
18 Governor shall submit to the General Assembly and make
19 available to the public, in printed copy form, a summary of
20 enacted appropriations, reflecting the Governor's action, in a
21 format similar to the budget initially submitted by the
22 Governor to the General Assembly.
23     For the purposes of Article VIII, Section 2 of the 1970
24 Illinois Constitution, the State budget for the following funds
25 shall be prepared on the basis of revenue and expenditure
26 measurement concepts that are in concert with generally

 

 

09600SB2167sam002 - 3 - LRB096 11457 RCE 26254 a

1 accepted accounting principles for governments:
2         (1) General Revenue Fund.
3         (2) Common School Fund.
4         (3) Educational Assistance Fund.
5         (4) Road Fund.
6         (5) Motor Fuel Tax Fund.
7         (6) Agricultural Premium Fund.
8     These funds shall be known as the "budgeted funds". The
9 revenue estimates used in the State budget for the budgeted
10 funds shall include the estimated beginning fund balance, plus
11 revenues estimated to be received during the budgeted year,
12 plus the estimated receipts due the State as of June 30 of the
13 budgeted year that are expected to be collected during the
14 lapse period following the budgeted year, minus the receipts
15 collected during the first 2 months of the budgeted year that
16 became due to the State in the year before the budgeted year.
17 Revenues shall also include estimated federal reimbursements
18 associated with the recognition of Section 25 of the State
19 Finance Act liabilities. For any budgeted fund for which
20 current year revenues are anticipated to exceed expenditures,
21 the surplus shall be considered to be a resource available for
22 expenditure in the budgeted fiscal year.
23     Expenditure estimates for the budgeted funds included in
24 the State budget shall include the costs to be incurred by the
25 State for the budgeted year, to be paid in the next fiscal
26 year, excluding costs paid in the budgeted year which were

1 carried over from the prior year, where the payment is
2 authorized by Section 25 of the State Finance Act. For any
3 budgeted fund for which expenditures are expected to exceed
4 revenues in the current fiscal year, the deficit shall be
5 considered as a use of funds in the budgeted fiscal year.
6     Revenues and expenditures shall also include transfers
7 between funds that are based on revenues received or costs
8 incurred during the budget year.
9     By March 15 of each year, the Commission on Government
10 Forecasting and Accountability shall prepare revenue and fund
11 transfer estimates in accordance with the requirements of this
12 Section and report those estimates to the General Assembly and

15 expenditures shall not exceed funds estimated to be available
16 for the fiscal year as shown in the budget. Appropriation for a
17 fiscal year shall not exceed funds estimated by the General
18 Assembly to be available during that year.
