29 27 under the Iowa finance authority in new Code section 16.191
29 28 and the small business disaster recovery financial assistance
29 29 program under the department of economic development in new
29 30 Code section 15E.361. Appropriations are made and transferred
29 31 for funding of the programs for FY 2008=2009.
29 32 Funding for the jumpstart housing assistance program is
29 33 transferred from appropriations made for the community
29 34 attraction and tourism fund, the river enhancement community
29 35 attraction and tourism fund, the power fund, and the rebuild
30 1 Iowa infrastructure fund appropriations for routine
30 2 maintenance of state buildings and capitol complex property
30 3 acquisition (department of administrative services) and for
30 4 supporting a lowhead dam public hazard improvement program
30 5 (department of natural resources). The division includes a
30 6 transfer from the loan and credit guarantee fund to restore
30 7 the amount transferred from the community attraction and
30 8 tourism fund appropriation.
30 9 Appropriations for the small business disaster recovery
30 10 financial assistance program are made from the grow Iowa
30 11 values fund. The appropriations made from the grow Iowa
30 12 values fund for fiscal year 2008=2009 are each reduced by 20

30 14 1, 2008. The division includes a nonreversion clause for
30 15 moneys appropriated or allocated by the division for purposes
30 16 of the program, allowing the moneys to continue to be used for
30 17 the program until the close of the succeeding fiscal year.
30 18 The division takes effect upon enactment and applies
30 19 retroactively to July 1, 2008.
30 20 The division specifies the appropriations and transfers

30 22 assistance and small business assistance programs or from the
30 23 loan and credit guarantee fund, as reported by the department
30 24 of management in the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2008.
30 25 CAPITAL APPROPRIATION REVISIONS. This division reduces or
30 26 eliminates appropriations made for a new state office building
30 27 at the capitol complex and reduces or eliminates various
30 28 capital appropriations from the rebuild Iowa infrastructure
30 29 fund (RIIF). Replacement appropriations for the amounts
30 30 reduced or eliminated from RIIF are made from the endowment

30 32 2008=2009. An amount of $37 million is transferred from the
30 33 rebuild Iowa infrastructure fund to the general fund of the
30 34 state for FY 2008=2009. The division takes effect upon
30 35 enactment. The provisions relating to the new state office
31 1 building are retroactively applicable to December 9, 2008.
31 2 ADDITIONAL APPROPRIATION REDUCTIONS. This division applies
31 3 reductions to appropriations made from the general fund of the
31 4 state for FY 2008=2009 in addition to those made pursuant to
31 5 the governor's uniform reduction under executive order number
31 6 10. Certain regulatory appropriations are exempted.

31 8 exempt from reduction under the executive order in accordance
31 9 with Code section 8.31.

31 11 appropriation to the judicial branch by approximately
31 12 $3,786,000.

31 31 APPROPRIATION RESTORATIONS AND SUPPLEMENTS. This division
31 32 supplements various annual appropriations made from the
31 33 general fund of the state for FY 2008=2009. The supplemental
31 34 appropriations restore the following appropriations for the
31 35 1.5 percent uniform reduction made in appropriation allotments
32 1 pursuant to the governor's executive order number 10: to the
32 2 department of corrections for operation of the correctional
32 3 institutions, departmental administration, and community=based

32 5 divisions, to the department of commerce for various

32 8 The division also restores certain appropriations made to
32 9 the department of human services for adult mental health,
32 10 mental retardation, and developmental disabilities services
32 11 and property tax relief. Payments under three of the
32 12 appropriations were made to counties in January 2009. The
32 13 department is required to calculate the amounts due to
32 14 counties in order to restore what would have been paid to the
32 15 counties under law but for the reductions made pursuant to
32 16 executive order number 10. The warrants to pay the amounts
32 17 due are required to be issued within 15 calendar days of the
32 18 bill's enactment date. Additional supplemental appropriations
32 19 are made to the department of public health for reducing the
32 20 incidence and prevalence of communicable diseases, and to the
32 21 department of natural resources for the parks bureau. The
32 22 division also provides a transfer to the state fish and game
32 23 protection fund to be used for addressing flood damage to
32 24 public lands and facilities administered by the department of
32 25 natural resources. The division appropriates approximately
32 26 $156.7 million of the federal community development block
32 27 grant funds to the department of economic development for
32 28 disaster relief. This appropriation is retroactively
32 29 applicable to June 30, 2008.
32 30 The division takes effect upon enactment.
32 31 REPEAL OF FUNDS. This division repeals the innovations
32 32 fund and the local government innovations fund and related
32 33 provisions on July 1, 2010.
32 34 The following Code sections are repealed: Code section
32 35 8.63, creating the innovations fund; Code section 8.64,
33 1 providing definitions relating to the repealed Code sections;
33 2 Code section 8.65, creating the local government innovation
33 3 commission; Code section 8.66, providing for the duties of the
33 4 commission; Code section 8.67, creating the local government
33 5 innovation fund; Code section 8.68, providing for the future
33 6 repeal of the local government innovation commission and fund;
33 7 and Code section 8.69 requiring the commission to establish
33 8 the Tim Shields center for governing excellence in Iowa.
33 9 Any moneys remaining in the two funds at the close of
33 10 fiscal year 2009=2010 and to be credited to the two funds in
33 11 any subsequent fiscal year are transferred to the general fund
33 12 of the state.
33 13 OTHER PROVISIONS. This division addresses other
33 14 provisions.
33 15 The bill suspends for fiscal years 2008=2009 and 2009=2010
33 16 existing law in Code section 8.62 that authorizes agencies to
33 17 encumber 50 percent of operational appropriations from the
33 18 general fund of the state that remain unexpended at the close
33 19 of the fiscal year and would otherwise revert to the general
33 20 fund of the state. The provision being suspended would
33 21 otherwise allow the agencies to use the encumbered funds
33 22 during the succeeding fiscal year for employee training,
33 23 technology enhancement, or purchases of goods and services
33 24 from Iowa prison industries. Instead, the division directs
33 25 that the moneys revert to the general fund of the state at the
33 26 close of the fiscal year.
33 27 The division takes effect upon enactment.
