Summary
Under the Taxpayer's Bill of Rights and the implementing legislation, the state is required to maintain an emergency reserve to be used for declared emergencies (state emergency reserve). The state may use the state emergency reserve for declared emergencies only.The act designates the cash and capital asset that constitute the state emergency reserve for the 2021-22 fiscal year. It also creates the state emergency reserve cash fund (fund) to be some or all of the state emergency reserve. On June 30, 2021, the state treasurer is required to transfer $101 million from the general fund and $100 million from the controlled maintenance trust fund to the fund. If money from any fund that is designated as part of the state emergency reserve is expended for a declared emergency and the state subsequently receives reimbursement for the expenditure, then the bill requires the state treasurer to deposit the reimbursement into the fund that was the source for the expenditure.(Note: This summary applies to this bill as enacted.)
