appropriated to the | 3 | | respective departments, offices, and institutions, and
for all | 4 | | other public purposes, the estimated revenues from taxation, | 5 | | and the
estimated revenues from sources other than taxation. | 6 | | Except with respect to the capital development provisions of | 7 | | the State budget, beginning with the revenue estimates prepared | 8 | | for fiscal year 2012, revenue estimates shall be based solely | 9 | | on: (i) revenue sources (including non-income resources), | 10 | | rates, and levels that exist as of the date of the submission | 11 | | of the State budget for the fiscal year and (ii) revenue | 12 | | sources (including non-income resources), rates, and levels | 13 | | that have been passed by the General Assembly as of the date of | 14 | | the submission of the State budget for the fiscal year and that | 15 | | are authorized to take effect in that fiscal year. Except with | 16 | | respect to the capital development provisions of the State | 17 | | budget, the Governor shall determine available revenue, deduct | 18 | | the cost of essential government services, including, but not | 19 | | limited to, pension payments and debt service, and assign a | 20 | | percentage of the remaining revenue to each statewide | 21 | | prioritized goal, as established in Section 50-25 of this Law, | 22 | | taking into consideration the proposed goals set forth in the | 23 | | report of the Commission established under that Section. The | 24 | | Governor shall also demonstrate how spending priorities for the | 25 | | fiscal year fulfill those statewide goals. The amounts | 26 | | recommended by the
Governor for appropriation to the respective |
| | | 09800SB1227ham006 | - 3 - | LRB098 07937 OMW 52836 a |
|
| 1 | | departments, offices and
institutions shall be formulated | 2 | | according to each department's, office's, and institution's | 3 | | ability to effectively deliver services that meet the | 4 | | established statewide goals. The amounts relating to | 5 | | particular functions
and activities shall be further | 6 | | formulated in accordance with the object
classification | 7 | | specified in Section 13 of the State Finance Act. In addition, | 8 | | the amounts recommended by the Governor for appropriation shall | 9 | | take into account each State agency's effectiveness in | 10 | | achieving its prioritized goals for the previous fiscal year, | 11 | | as set forth in Section 50-25 of this Law, giving priority to | 12 | | agencies and programs that have demonstrated a focus on the | 13 | | prevention of waste and the maximum yield from resources. | 14 | | Beginning in fiscal year 2011, the Governor shall | 15 | | distribute written quarterly financial reports on operating | 16 | | funds, which may include general, State, or federal funds and | 17 | | may include funds related to agencies that have significant | 18 | | impacts on State operations, and budget statements on all | 19 | | appropriated funds to the General Assembly and the State | 20 | | Comptroller. The reports shall be submitted no later than 45 | 21 | | days after the last day of each quarter of the fiscal year and | 22 | | shall be posted on the Governor's Office of Management and | 23 | | Budget's website on the same day. The reports shall be prepared | 24 | | and presented for each State agency and on a statewide level in | 25 | | an executive summary format that may include, for the fiscal | 26 | | year to date, individual itemizations for each significant |
| | | 09800SB1227ham006 | - 4 - | LRB098 07937 OMW 52836 a |
|
| 1 | | revenue type as well as itemizations of expenditures and | 2 | | obligations, by agency, with an appropriate level of detail. | 3 | | The reports shall include a calculation of the actual total | 4 | | budget surplus or deficit for the fiscal year to date. The | 5 | | Governor shall also present periodic budget addresses | 6 | | throughout the fiscal year at the invitation of the General | 7 | | Assembly. | 8 | | The Governor shall not propose expenditures and the General | 9 | | Assembly shall
not enact appropriations that exceed the | 10 | | resources estimated to be available,
as provided in this | 11 | | Section. Appropriations may be adjusted during the fiscal year | 12 | | by means of one or more supplemental appropriation bills if any | 13 | | State agency either fails to meet or exceeds the goals set | 14 | | forth in Section 50-25 of this Law. | 15 | | For the purposes of Article VIII, Section 2 of the 1970
| 16 | | Illinois Constitution, the State budget for the following funds | 17 | | shall be
prepared on the basis of revenue and expenditure | 18 | | measurement concepts that are
in concert with generally | 19 | | accepted accounting principles for governments: | 20 | | (1) General Revenue Fund. | 21 | | (2) Common School Fund. | 22 | | (3) Educational Assistance Fund. | 23 | | (4) Road Fund. | 24 | | (5) Motor Fuel Tax Fund. | 25 | | (6) Agricultural Premium Fund. | 26 | | These funds shall be known as the "budgeted funds". The |

|
| 1 | | revenue
estimates used in the State budget for the budgeted | 2 | | funds shall include the
estimated beginning fund balance, plus
| 3 | | revenues estimated to be received during the budgeted year, | 4 | | plus the estimated
receipts due the State as of June 30 of the | 5 | | budgeted year that are expected to
be collected during the | 6 | | lapse period following the budgeted year, minus the
receipts | 7 | | collected during the first 2 months of the budgeted year that | 8 | | became
due to the State in the year before the budgeted year. | 9 | | Revenues shall also
include estimated federal reimbursements | 10 | | associated with the recognition of
Section 25 of the State | 11 | | Finance Act liabilities. For any budgeted fund
for which | 12 | | current year revenues are anticipated to exceed expenditures, | 13 | | the
surplus shall be considered to be a resource available for | 14 | | expenditure in the
budgeted fiscal year. | 15 | | Expenditure estimates for the budgeted funds included in | 16 | | the State budget
shall include the costs to be incurred by the | 17 | | State for the budgeted year,
to be paid in the next fiscal | 18 | | year, excluding costs paid in the budgeted year
which were | 19 | | carried over from the prior year, where the payment is | 20 | | authorized by
Section
25 of the State Finance Act. For any | 21 | | budgeted fund
for which expenditures are expected to exceed | 22 | | revenues in the current fiscal
year, the deficit shall be | 23 | | considered as a use of funds in the budgeted fiscal
year. | 24 | | Revenues and expenditures shall also include transfers | 25 | | between funds that are
based on revenues received or costs | 26 | | incurred during the budget year. |
| | | 09800SB1227ham006 | - 6 - | LRB098 07937 OMW 52836 a |
|
| 1 | | Appropriations for expenditures shall also include all | 2 | | anticipated statutory continuing appropriation obligations | 3 | | that are expected to be incurred during the budgeted fiscal | 4 | | year. | 5 | | By
March 15 of each year, the
Commission on Government | 6 | | Forecasting and Accountability shall prepare
revenue and fund | 7 | | transfer estimates in accordance with the requirements of this
| 8 | | Section and report those estimates to the General Assembly and | 9 | | the Governor. | 10 | | For all funds other than the budgeted funds, the proposed | 11 | | expenditures shall
not exceed funds estimated to be available | 12 | | for the fiscal year as shown in the
budget. Appropriation for a | 13 | | fiscal year shall not exceed funds estimated by
the General | 14 | | Assembly to be available during that year. | 15 | | (b) By February 24, 2010, the Governor must file a written | 16 | | report with the Secretary of the Senate and the Clerk of the | 17 | | House of Representatives containing the following: | 18 | | (1) for fiscal year 2010, the revenues for all budgeted | 19 | | funds, both actual to date and estimated for the full | 20 | | fiscal year; | 21 | | (2) for fiscal year 2010, the expenditures for all | 22 | | budgeted funds, both actual to date and estimated for the | 23 | | full fiscal year; | 24 | | (3) for fiscal year 2011, the estimated revenues for | 25 | | all budgeted funds, including without limitation the | 26 | | affordable General Revenue Fund appropriations, for the |
| | | 09800SB1227ham006 | - 7 - | LRB098 07937 OMW 52836 a |
|
| 1 | | full fiscal year; and | 2 | | (4) for fiscal year 2011, an estimate of the | 3 | | anticipated liabilities for all budgeted funds, including | 4 | | without limitation the affordable General Revenue Fund | 5 | | appropriations, debt service on bonds issued, and the | 6 | | State's contributions to the pension systems, for the full | 7 | | fiscal year. | 8 | | Between July 1 and August 31 of each fiscal year, the | 9 | | members of the General Assembly and members of the public may | 10 | | make written budget recommendations to the Governor. | 11 | | Beginning with budgets prepared for fiscal year 2013, the | 12 | | budgets submitted by the Governor and appropriations made by | 13 | | the General Assembly for all executive branch State agencies | 14 | | must adhere to a method of budgeting where each priority must | 15 | | be justified each year according to merit rather than according | 16 | | to the amount appropriated for the preceding year. | 17 | | (Source: P.A. 97-669, eff. 1-13-12; 97-813, eff. 7-13-12; 98-2, | 18 | | eff. 2-19-13.)
