            (Note:  This summary applies to this bill as introduced and does
       not reflect any amendments that may be subsequently adopted. If this bill
       passes third reading in the house of introduction, a bill summary that

            Capital Development Committee. The bill creates the regional
       center depreciation and controlled maintenance account in the capital
       construction fund and requires the state controller to annually transfer to
       the account all moneys received by the department of health care policy
       and financing for depreciation of the state's regional centers. The bill
       specifies that the moneys in the account are subject to appropriation and
       may only be used to fund controlled maintenance of the state's regional
       centers only after the department of human services submits a request for
       moneys from the fund to the capital development committee.
       
       
       
       Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
            SECTION 1.  In Colorado Revised Statutes, 24-75-302, add (3.7)
       as follows:
            24-75-302.  Capital construction fund - capital assessment fees
       - calculation - repeal. (3.7)  There is hereby created an account
       within the capital construction fund, established pursuant to
       subsection (1) of this section, to be known as the regional center
       depreciation and controlled maintenance account. For the
       2014-15 fiscal year, and each fiscal year thereafter, the state
       controller shall annually transfer to the account all moneys
       received by the department of health care policy and financing
       for depreciation of the state's regional centers. The moneys in
       the account are subject to appropriation and may only be used
       to fund controlled maintenance of the state's regional centers.
       The department of human services shall submit requests for
       moneys from the fund to the capital development committee and
       only upon approval by the capital development committee may
       an appropriation be authorized in a bill enacted by the general
       assembly, the annual general appropriation act, or a
       supplemental appropriation act. All moneys unexpended or
       unencumbered in any fiscal year must remain in the account.
            SECTION 2.  Safety clause. The general assembly hereby finds,
       determines, and declares that this act is necessary for the immediate
       preservation of the public peace, health, and safety.
