A BILL FOR AN ACT

CONCERNING LIMITATIONS ON STATE CASH FUNDS.

Bill Summary

(Note: This summary applies to this bill as introduced and does not necessarily reflect any amendments that may be subsequently adopted.)

Beginning with the fiscal year 19992000, prohibits the total amount appropriated from cash funds from exceeding the lesser of 5% of Colorado personal income or the amount of cash funds appropriated in the previous fiscal year, plus 6%.

Beginning with the fiscal year 199899, provides that when the ending balance of any cash fund exceeds 10% of the amount appropriated from the cash fund for the ending fiscal year, requires the entity imposing the fees that are credited to the cash fund to reduce the amount of the fees collected. Defines "ending balance" as the amount credited to a cash fund as of June 30 of any fiscal year, plus any amount transferred from the cash fund to a reserve fund during that fiscal year. Specifies that if an entity lowers the amount of any fee in order to meet the 10% limit, after the cash fund reserves are sufficiently reduced to meet said limit, the entity may raise the amount of the fee as necessary to reflect the direct and indirect costs of providing the service; except that the amount of the fee may not be raised beyond any amount specified in statute for the fee.

Makes amendments to various fee amounts to allow the entity imposing the fee to lower the amount, if necessary.

Be it enacted by the General Assembly of the State of Colorado:
