A BILL supplementing and amending Chapter 11, Acts of the Legislature, Regular Session, 2022, known as the budget bill, as amended, in Title II from the appropriations of public moneys out of the Treasury in the State Fund, General Revenue, to the Department of Transportation, Division of Multimodal Transportation Facilities – Public Transit, fund 0510, fiscal year 2023, organization 0810, by supplementing and amending the appropriations for the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023.

Whereas, The Governor submitted the Executive Budget Document to the Legislature on January 11, 2023, containing a statement of the State Fund, General Revenue, setting forth therein the cash balance as of July 1, 2022, and further included the estimate of revenue for the fiscal year 2023, less net appropriation balances forwarded and regular and surplus appropriations for the fiscal year 2023, and further included recommended supplemental appropriations from the balance of the State Fund, General Revenue; and

Whereas, It appears from the Governor’s Statement of the State Fund, General Revenue, there now remains an unappropriated balance in the Treasury which is available for appropriation during the fiscal year ending June 30, 2023; and

Whereas, On March 30, 2022 the Governor approved House Bill 4492, which re-organized the Division of Public Transit under the newly-created the Division of Multimodal Transportation Facilities of the Department of Transportation; therefore
