      Concerning the creation of a regional center depreciation
           account in the capital construction fund for maintenance
           of the state's regional centers, and, in connection
           therewith, making an appropriation.
      
      
      Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
      
           SECTION 1.  In Colorado Revised Statutes, 24-75-302, add (3.8)
      as follows:
      
           24-75-302.  Capital construction fund - capital assessment fees
      - calculation - repeal. (3.8) (a)  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 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 human
      services for depreciation of the state's regional centers. The
      moneys in the account are subject to appropriation and may only
      be used to fund capital construction, capital renewal, or
      controlled maintenance of the state's regional centers. The
      department of human services shall submit requests for moneys
      from the account 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.
      
           (b)  The department of human services shall provide details
      to the joint budget committee no later than thirty-five days
      after the close of the fiscal year of the total moneys credited to
      the regional center depreciation and controlled maintenance
      account for the fiscal year.
      
           SECTION 2.  Capital construction appropriation. (1)  For the
      2014-15 state fiscal year, $594,750 is appropriated to the department of
      human services for use by the regional centers for people with
      developmental disabilities. This appropriation is from the regional center
      depreciation account within the capital construction fund created in section
      24-75-302 (3.8) (a), C.R.S. To implement this act, the regional centers for
      people with developmental disabilities may use this appropriation for
      controlled maintenance related to installation of heat-detection fire alarm
      systems.
      
           (2)  For the 2015-16 state fiscal year, $730,510 is appropriated to the
      department of human services for use by the regional centers for people
      with developmental disabilities. This appropriation is from the regional
      center depreciation account within the capital construction fund created in
      section 24-75-302 (3.8) (a), C.R.S. To implement this act, the regional
      centers for people with developmental disabilities may use this
      appropriation for capital construction related to the Kipling Village security
      perimeter fence.
      
           SECTION 3.  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.
