FISCAL ANALYSIS



ASSUMPTION



Officials from the Department of Elementary and Secondary Education stated there would be no fiscal impact on their agency resulting from this proposal. The proposal gives districts meeting certain conditions the flexibility to transfer funds from the Capital Projects Fund to the Incidental Fund. Such flexibility may help districts meet their general operating obligations during years of stagnant or reduced revenues.

(10 Mo.)

FY 2005 FY 2006
$0 $0 $0





FISCAL IMPACT - Local Government FY 2004

(10 Mo.)

FY 2005 FY 2006
$0 $0 $0







FISCAL IMPACT - Small Business



No direct fiscal impact to small businesses would be expected as a result of this proposal.



DESCRIPTION



This proposal allows school districts to transfer unrestricted funds from the capital projects fund to the incidental fund in any year in which that year's June 30 combined incidental and teachers funds unrestricted balance compared to the combined incidental and teachers funds expenditures would be less than ten percent without such transfer.



This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
