FOOTNOTES -- The following statements are referenced to the numbered footnotes throughout section 2.
2(Governor lined through this provision. See L. 97, p. 2263.)
3All Departments, Totals -- The General Assembly requests that copies of all reports requested in other footnotes contained in this act be delivered to the Joint Budget Committee and the majority and minority leadership in each house of the General Assembly.
4(Governor lined through this provision. See L. 97, p. 2263.)
18Department of Corrections, Correctional Industries; and Department of Revenue, Motor Vehicle Division -- The Department of Corrections is requested to submit to the Joint Budget Committee quarterly reports which outline the license plate production level, by type, for the preceding quarter, as well as an estimate of the next quarter's anticipated production level as compared to actual orders received. The Department of Revenue is requested to submit to the Joint Budget Committee quarterly reports which outline the license plate inventory on hand, by county, as of the end of each quarter, as well as the estimated license plate demand of each county for the next quarter. The Joint Budget Committee requests that the Department of Revenue submit a quarterly report beginning September 30, 1998 detailing their progress in the development of a license plate production system, which adheres to their objective of reducing the inventory levels of license plates and tabs in the counties to an amount equal to one quarter's usage by June 30, 2000.
148Department of Human Services, Office of Information Technology Services, Year 2000 Date Change; Department of Labor and Employment, Executive Director's Office, Year 2000 Date Change; Department of Law, Administration, Year 2000 Project; Department of Public Health and Environment, Information Technology Services, Year 2000 Projects; and Department of Revenue, Information Technology Division, Year 2000 Programming -- It is the intent of the General Assembly that moneys in this line be restricted by the State Controller until the Commission on Information Management has reviewed and approved the Department's Year 2000 implementation plan.
171Department of Revenue, Executive Director's Office -- It is the intent of the General Assembly that the Department of Revenue submit a report to the Joint Budget Committee by November 1, 1997, detailing vacancy savings and POTS being utilized to provide funding in the Reinvestment Reserve.
172Department of Revenue, All Sections -- The Department's line item appropriations have been based upon and are subject to the Memorandum of Understanding between the Department of Revenue and the Joint Budget Committee of the General Assembly, which memorandum was signed by the Executive Director of the Department and the Chairman of the Joint Budget Committee. The Memorandum of Understanding is on file at the office of the Joint Budget Committee. The intent of the Memorandum is to make the Department more cost-effective through new and continued line item consolidation in order to maximize productivity by using existing and reduced staff and funding levels to prioritize assignments and responsibly perform statutorily required functions. The Department will maintain accounting records which will delineate actual expenditures for the consolidated line items based on the FY 1988-89 appropriation line items.
172aDepartment of Revenue, Taxpayers Service Division -- The General Assembly and the Department of Revenue recognize that there is a need to improve taxpayer telephone service delivery. To this end the Department of Revenue will reallocate an equivalent of 5.0 FTE to improve telephone service delivery during FY 1997-98 and especially during income tax season in calendar year 1998. The Taxpayer Service Division has 3.0 FTE not funded through its vacancy savings rate and an additional 1.4 FTE held vacant to fund other operating costs. Through internal reallocation of resources in FY 97-98, the Department will fully fill all of these authorized FTE and will utilize temporary and contractual services to maximize telephone service delivery during peak workload periods. This reallocation will not diminish current service levels in other areas of the Taxpayer Service Division. The Department of Revenue will report its reallocation plan to the Joint Budget Committee by November 1, 1997. In addition, the Department of Revenue will submit a report to the Joint Budget Committee by November 1, 1997 outlining long-term recommendations to achieve optimum levels of telephone service delivery.

175Department of Revenue, Motor Vehicle Division -- It is the intent of the General Assembly that the Department of Revenue, Motor Vehicle Division, submit a zero base budget request for FY 1998-99 to the Joint Budget Committee by November 1, 1997.
