---TITLE/PURPOSES

Sec. 1.  This act shall be known as "The Capital Improvement Appropriations Act of 1987".

---PROCEDURES FOR DISBURSEMENTS

Sec. 3.  The appropriations made by the 1987 General Assembly for capital improvements shall be disbursed for the purposes provided by this act.  Expenditure of funds may not be made by any State department, institution or agency, until an allotment has been approved by the Governor as Director of the Budget.  The allotment shall be approved only after full compliance with the Executive Budget Act, Article I of Chapter 143 of the General Statutes.  Prior to the award of construction contracts for projects to be financed in whole or in part with self-liquidating appropriations, the Director of the Budget shall approve the elements of the method of financing of those projects including the source of funds, interest rate, and liquidation period:  Provided, however, that if Director of the Budget approves a method of financing those projects, he shall report that action to the Joint Legislative Commission on Governmental Operations at its next meeting.

Where direct capital improvement appropriations include the purpose of furnishing movable equipment for any project, those funds for equipment shall not be subject to transfer into construction accounts except as authorized by the Director of the Budget.

Capital improvement projects authorized by the 1987 General Assembly shall be completed, including fixed and movable equipment and furnishings, within the limits of the amounts of the direct or self-liquidating appropriations provided, except as otherwise provided in this act.

---APPROPRIATIONS LIMITS/REVERSION OR LAPSE

Sec. 40.  Except as permitted in previous sections of this act, the appropriations for capital improvements made by the 1987 General Assembly may be expended only for specific projects set out by the 1987 General Assembly and for no other purpose.  Construction of all capital improvement projects enumerated by the 1987 General Assembly shall be commenced or self-liquidating indebtedness with respect to them shall be incurred within 12 months following the first day of the fiscal year in which the funds are available.  If construction contracts on those projects have not been awarded or self-liquidating indebtedness has not been incurred within that period, the direct appropriations for those projects shall revert to the original source, and the self-liquidating appropriation shall lapse; except that the direct appropriations may be placed in a reserve fund as authorized in the immediately preceding section of this act.  This deadline with respect to both direct and self-liquidating appropriations may be extended up to an additional 12 months if circumstances and conditions warrant such extension.
