LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST
SB 83, Committee on Budget and Fiscal Review. Budget Act of 2011:
Citizens Redistricting Commission.
The Budget Act of 2011 appropriates $400,000 for the support of
the Citizens Redistricting Commission. The act also authorizes the
Director of Finance, not sooner than 30 days after notification to
the Joint Legislative Budget Committee, or any lesser time determined
by the chairperson of the joint committee, to augment that $400,000
appropriation by up to $1,500,000 if the commission demonstrates that
funding for litigation support is necessary.
This bill would increase the appropriation for the support of the
commission to $739,000. The bill would further authorize the Director
of Finance, in addition to the existing augmentation authority and
subject to the same time restrictions, to augment that $739,000
appropriation by up to $659,000 if the commission demonstrates that
additional funding is necessary during the 2011-12 fiscal year for
litigation to defend any action regarding a certified final map and,
in addition, by up to $163,000 if the commission demonstrates that
additional funding is necessary during the 2011-12 fiscal year for
costs related to unemployment insurance and vacation leave balance
payments for staff who are terminating employment with the state.
This bill would declare that it is to take effect immediately as a
Budget Bill.
