Rep. Mulrooney

AN ACT PROPOSING AN AMENDMENT TO THE DELAWARE CONSTITUTION RELATING TO RESTRICTIONS ON THE EXPENDITURE OF MONEYS IN CERTAIN SPECIAL FUNDS.

This Act is the first leg of a constitutional amendment that limits the ability of the State to appropriate moneys in a special fund created, after January 1, 2018, to fund capital projects with a dedicated revenue source and with a limitation on the amount or percentage of the revenue source that may be used for non-capital operating or administrative expenses. This Act essentially creates a lock box on these special funds that can only be opened by the agreement of three-fourths of all the members elected to each House through legislation separate from an annual budget act, bond and capital improvement act, or grants-in-aid act.
