DIGEST : This bill makes budgetary loans and transfers in
the 2010-11 fiscal year by amending the 2010 Budget Act.
Assembly Amendments delete the prior version of the bill,
and insert the current provisions relating to budgetary
loans and transfers.
ANALYSIS : This bill amends the 2010 Budget Act to add
new budgetary loans and transfers from special funds to the
General Fund. In total, the amount directed to the General
Fund in this bill is $544.7 million. The loans must be
repaid as needed to support the activities of the related
programs.
Most of these loans were proposed by the Governor to
backfill for the revenue loss caused by the cancelation of
the sale-for-leaseback of 11 large state office buildings.

The sale of the state office buildings would have resulted
in higher ongoing lease costs, and carried an implied
interest rate of approximately 10 percent. The special
fund loans will have a much lower interest cost - likely
under two percent.

identifies all the budget trailer bills.
