1 5 <Sec. . Section 8.54, subsection 2, Code 2007,
1 6 is amended to read as follows:
1 7 2. There is created a state general fund
1 8 expenditure limitation for each fiscal year calculated
1 9 as provided in this section. An expenditure
1 10 limitation shall be used for the portion of the budget
1 11 process commencing on the date the revenue estimating
1 12 conference agrees to a revenue estimate for the
1 13 following fiscal year in accordance with section
1 14 8.22A, subsection 3, and ending with the governor's
1 15 final approval or disapproval of the appropriations
1 16 bills applicable to that fiscal year that were passed
1 17 prior to July 1 of that fiscal year in a regular or
1 18 extraordinary legislative session close of the fiscal
1 19 year for which the expenditure limitation was
1 20 calculated. Once the fiscal year for which the
1 21 expenditure limitation was calculated commences, the
1 22 expenditure limitation for that fiscal year is not
1 23 subject to adjustment or readjustment except by law
1 24 enacted for that purpose.

1 32 an increase of more than two percent over the adjusted
1 33 revenue estimate used to establish the expenditure
1 34 limitation for the immediately preceding fiscal year.
1 35 b. If an appropriation is made for a fiscal year
1 36 from a source other than the general fund of the state

1 38 fiscal years immediately preceding that fiscal year
1 39 the designated purpose was funded by an appropriation
1 40 from the general fund of the state, for the purposes
1 41 of the state general fund expenditure limitation, the
1 42 amount of the appropriation from the other source
1 43 shall be considered to have been transferred to and
1 44 appropriated from the general fund of the state and
1 45 shall be counted as both a new revenue causing
1 46 readjustment of the expenditure limitation amount and
1 47 as an appropriation made under the expenditure
1 48 limitation amount. Subject to the applicability
