  1 49 is amended to read as follows:
  1 50    1.  A cash reserve fund is created in the state
  2  1 treasury.  The cash reserve fund shall be separate
  2  2 from the general fund of the state and shall not be
  2  3 considered part of the general fund of the state
  2  4 except in determining the cash position of the state
  2  5 as provided in subsection 3.  The moneys in the cash
  2  6 reserve fund are not subject to section 8.33 and shall
  2  7 not be transferred, used, obligated, appropriated, or
  2  8 otherwise encumbered except as provided in this
  2  9 section.  Notwithstanding section 12C.7, subsection 2,
  2 10 interest or earnings on moneys deposited in the cash
  2 11 reserve fund shall be credited to the rebuild Iowa
  2 12 economic emergency fund infrastructure account created
  2 13 in section 8.57.  Moneys in the cash reserve fund may
  2 14 be used for cash flow purposes provided that any
  2 15 moneys so allocated are returned to the cash reserve
  2 16 fund by the end of each fiscal year.  However, the
  2 17 fund shall be considered a special account for the
  2 18 purposes of section 8.53.
  2 19    Sec. 201.  Section 8.56, subsection 4, paragraph b,
  2 20 Code 1995, is amended to read as follows:
  2 21    b.  In addition to the requirements of paragraph
  2 22 "a", an appropriation shall not be made from the cash
  2 23 reserve fund which would cause the fund's balance to
  2 24 be less than three percent of the adjusted revenue
  2 25 estimate for the year for which the appropriation is
  2 26 made unless the bill or joint resolution making the
  2 27 appropriation is approved by vote of at least three-
  2 28 fifths of the members of both chambers of the general
  2 29 assembly and is signed by the governor.
  2 30    Sec. 202.  Section 8.57, subsection 1, paragraph a,
  2 31 Code 1995, is amended by striking the paragraph and
  2 32 inserting in lieu thereof the following:
  2 33    a.  The cash reserve goal percentage for fiscal
  2 34 years beginning on or after July 1, 1995, is five
  2 35 percent of the adjusted revenue estimate.  For each
  2 36 fiscal year beginning on or after July 1, 1995, in
  2 37 which the appropriation of the surplus existing in the
  2 38 general fund of the state at the conclusion of the
  2 39 prior fiscal year pursuant to paragraph "b" was not
  2 40 sufficient for the cash reserve fund to reach the cash
  2 41 reserve goal percentage for the current fiscal year,
  2 42 there is appropriated from the general fund of the
  2 43 state an amount to be determined as follows:
  2 44    (1)  If the balance of the cash reserve fund in the
  2 45 current fiscal year is not more than four percent of
  2 46 the adjusted revenue estimate for the current fiscal
  2 47 year, the amount of the appropriation under this
  2 48 lettered paragraph is one percent of the adjusted
  2 49 revenue estimate for the current fiscal year.
  2 50    (2)  If the balance of the cash reserve fund in the
  3  1 current fiscal year is more than four percent but less
  3  2 than five percent of the adjusted revenue estimate for
  3  3 that fiscal year, the amount of the appropriation
  3  4 under this lettered paragraph is the amount necessary
  3  5 for the cash reserve fund to reach five percent of the
  3  6 adjusted revenue estimate for the current fiscal year.
  3  7    (3)  The moneys appropriated under this lettered
  3  8 paragraph shall be credited in equal and proportionate
  3  9 amounts in each quarter of the current fiscal year.
  3 10    Sec. 203.  Section 8.57, subsection 1, paragraph b,
  3 11 Code 1995, is amended to read as follows:

  3 15 distribution in the succeeding fiscal year as provided
  3 16 in this section subsections 2 and 3.  Moneys credited
  3 17 to the cash reserve fund from the appropriation made
  3 18 in this paragraph shall not exceed the amount
  3 19 necessary for the cash reserve fund to reach the cash
  3 20 reserve goal percentage for the succeeding fiscal
  3 21 year.  As used in this paragraph, "surplus" means the
  3 22 excess of revenues and other financing sources over
  3 23 expenditures and other financing uses for the general
  3 24 fund of the state in a fiscal year.
  3 25    Sec. 204.  NEW SECTION.  8.57A  PERSONAL INCOME TAX
  3 26 RATE REDUCTION REPLACEMENT FUND.
  3 27    1.  The personal income tax rate reduction
  3 28 replacement fund is created in the state treasury
  3 29 under the authority of the department of management.
  3 30 The fund shall be separate from the general fund of
  3 31 the state and shall not be considered part of the
  3 32 general fund of the state except in determining the
  3 33 cash position of the state for payment of state
  3 34 obligations.  The moneys in the fund are not subject
  3 35 to the provisions of section 8.33 and shall not be
  3 36 transferred, used, obligated, appropriated, or
  3 37 otherwise encumbered except as provided in this
  3 38 section.  Moneys in the fund may be used for cash flow
  3 39 purposes provided that any moneys so allocated are
  3 40 returned to the fund by the end of each fiscal year.
  3 41 However, the fund shall be considered a special
  3 42 account for the purposes of section 8.53, relating to
  3 43 elimination of any GAAP deficit.  The fund is created
  3 44 upon the effective date of this section, and shall
  3 45 remain in existence until the close of the fiscal year
  3 46 beginning July 1, 1999.
  3 47    2.  The provisions of this subsection apply for the
  3 48 fiscal years beginning July 1 of 1994, 1995, 1996,
  3 49 1997, and 1998.  Notwithstanding the provisions of
  3 50 section 8.57, subsection 3, for each of the designated
  4  1 fiscal years, moneys remaining following the
  4  2 appropriations made pursuant to section 8.57,
  4  3 subsection 1, shall not be appropriated to the Iowa
  4  4 economic emergency fund but are instead appropriated
  4  5 to the personal income tax rate reduction replacement
  4  6 fund.
  4  7    3.  Effective for the fiscal year beginning July 1,
  4  8 1995, and the subsequent three fiscal years, on or
  4  9 before December 31 of each of the fiscal years, the
  4 10 state revenue estimating conference created in section
  4 11 8.22A shall certify an estimate of the net change in
  4 12 revenues deposited into the general fund of the state
  4 13 for that fiscal year due to the personal income tax
  4 14 rate reduction implemented pursuant to section 422.5.
  4 15 The director of the department of management shall
  4 16 transfer not more than the certified amount from the
  4 17 personal income tax rate reduction replacement fund to
  4 18 the general fund of the state.  Prior to the transfer,
  4 19 the director shall determine whether the balance of
  4 20 the general fund of the state is sufficient to absorb
  4 21 the revenue change, and if the certified balance is
  4 22 sufficient the director may defer the transfer to a
  4 23 succeeding fiscal year.  Moneys transferred to the
  4 24 general fund of the state pursuant to this section
  4 25 shall be added to the general fund expenditure
  4 26 limitation, to the extent not already included, for
  4 27 the fiscal year in which the transfer takes place and
  4 28 ninety-nine percent of the transferred amount is
  4 29 available for expenditure as directed by the general
  4 30 assembly.
  4 31    4.  Notwithstanding section 12C.7, subsection 2,
  4 32 interest or earnings on moneys deposited in the
  4 33 personal income tax rate reduction replacement fund
  4 34 shall be credited to the rebuild Iowa infrastructure
  4 35 account created in section 8.57.

  4 39 section 8.55, at the conclusion of the fiscal year
  4 40 beginning July 1, 1994, shall be transferred to the
  4 41 rebuild Iowa infrastructure account."
