  • Office Memorandum
    Office Memorandum Date: December 21, 2016 To: Commissioners and Agency Heads From: Commissioner Myron Frans Phone: 651-201-8011 Subject: State Government Special Revenue (1200) Fund I am writing to you because your agency receives an appropriation from the State Government Special Revenue Fund (Fund 1200 in SWIFT). We are projecting a deficit in this fund and will need to take steps to resolve the deficit. Based on the November Forecast Consolidated Fund Statement, Minnesota Management and Budget (MMB) is now projecting that expenditures in this fund will exceed resources in the current fiscal year. Because of this, we are now anticipating a projected deficit of $2,877,000 in fiscal year 2017 in the 1200 Fund. The projected deficit is expected to grow by approximately $2 million each year from FY 2018-21. I am required by statute (MS 16A.152) to take action to resolve this deficit. I am asking for your cooperation to help my staff identify solutions to prevent the projected deficit from occurring. In the coming weeks, your Executive Budget Officer (EBO) from MMB will contact your agency to develop an understanding of current spending obligations and identify possible cancellations and remaining balances that may be available in order to resolve the deficit in the fund. I have asked my team to work with your agency so that we may develop a solution within the next several weeks. If you have any questions, please contact your EBO. We intend to publish the November Forecast Consolidated Funds Statement on December 22, 2016. This publication will officially report the anticipated deficit.

In those cases, the relevant legal citation for spending authority is provided. The federal awards included in the attached document that are subject to the LAC review process in M.S. 3.3005 will be approved for spending in 20 days unless an LAC member requests further review or provides a negative recommendation for a specific grant in writing by April 8, 2021.
