CORRECTIONS1. Prison Store OperationsThe State Budget Office requests restoration of restricted revenues deriving from prison store operations; a new line for "prison store operations" would appropriate the funding and be used for storekeeper positions that are being retained, rather than eliminated as previously contemplated.

2. Northern Region ConsolidationsBecause the Department of Corrections is automating business office functions and consolidating and reducing business office staff, the state budget office requests establishment of a northern region support and services line item to fund consolidated functions at various locations in the region. A placeholder of $100 is proposed (funded through a $100 reduction to the Chippewa line item) so that transfers can be made into the line. (9/9/08 SBO letter) |

3. Offset Shortfalls in Offender CollectionsOffsets anticipated shortfalls in revenues from parole and probation oversight fees, which support the cost of parole and probation agents, and tether program participant revenues, which support the cost of the electronic monitoring program. The Department of Corrections projects combined revenues of about $8.6 million against combined deducts of about $16.8 million. Combined revenues were $9.5 million in FY 2005-06, $9.3 million in FY 2006-07, and $8.8 million in FY 2007-08. (6/1/09 SBO letter) |

(CMS). Care currently is provided under a contract with Prison Health Services, Inc. (PHS). Expenditures for the first half of the fiscal year were $61.8 million, with the possibility of another $1.4 million that is being questioned. Projected expenditures for the year are $104.3 million against an appropriation of $80.3 million. (6/1/09 SBO letter) |

ENERGY, LABOR,AND ECONOMIC GROWTH6. Michigan State Housing Development Authority The supplemental increases the spending authorization for MSHDA due to higher than anticipated costs in 2009 related to upgrades to the agency's computer system used to manage data for accounting, asset management, and loan servicing functions. Previously, it was anticipated that implementation would begin in 2008, when it actually took place in 2009. In essence, the 2008 costs are being incurred in 2009. Also, the agency is realizing an increase in contractual costs with Section 8 Housing contract agents, who are responsible for managing the application process, maintaining waiting lists and records, and inspecting properties. The May 2009 Contingency Transfer increased the authorization for the Section 8 (Housing Choice Voucher Program) line item by $7.0 million to reflect the increased use of the housing vouchers. MSHDA has sufficient resources to meet the increased costs. (10/5/09 SBO letter) |

HIGHER EDUCATION7. TANF Fund Shift for Financial Aid Programs Replaces $173.1 million in GF/GP, Merit Award Trust Fund, and associated federal funds appropriated for state financial aid programs with an equal amount of federal TANF funding. Affected programs are Competitive Scholarships, Tuition Grants, Tuition Incentive Program, Promise Grants, and Nursing Scholarships. Offsetting adjustments included in Human Services budget. The financing shift will better position the State to achieve necessary state-funded Maintenance of Effort (MOE) and matching requirements to draw down up to $155 million in federal TANF contingency fund revenues during FY 2008-09.

The GF/GP and Merit Award revenues are transferred from the Higher Education budget, which in turn receives the TANF revenue savings from DHS.
