Overview - General Fund Balance
Amounts may not add due to rounding
This presentation presents a different look at the budget proposals from the traditional presentation of Budgeted Resources
(net revenue changes and net transfers) less Appropriations. "Savings" initiatives include those items that increase
resources: deappropriations; revenue increases; transfers from other funds; and other positive adjustments to balances.
"Spending" initiatives include all those items that decrease resources: appropriations; revenue decreases; transfers to other
funds; and other negative adjustments to fund balance.
Reflects budgeted ending balance at the close of FY13 including all actions of the 125th Legislature and FY12 closing
transfers and adjustments. The effect of the December 2012 Revenue Forecast is listed separately.
The EFY13 Supplemental Budget (LD 250) as amended provides various funding adjustments to offset the
$35.5 million FY13 downward revision to General Fund revenue estimates in the December 2012 revenue
forecast. Those offsets were initially implemented by the Governor's temporary curtailment of allotments.
The Supplemental Budget also funds significant shortfalls in the Department of Health and Human
Services, primarily in the MaineCare program.

The Committee's proposals generate $148.7 million of General Fund resources from various savings
initiatives (including the initiatives in the temporary curtailment), revenue enhancements and transfers from
other funds. Approximately 70% of the total amount of savings initiatives relate to various items affecting
General Purpose Aid for Local Schools and transfers from General Fund reserve accounts. The pie charts
and tables on pages 2 and 3 provide more information on these proposals.
