COMMITTEE ON FINANCE
1998/99 Lottery Revenue Budget
The chancellor proposes the 1998/99 Lottery Budget summarized in this agenda item.
The total lottery revenue available for distribution in 1998/99 is estimated to be $35.7 million. This budget includes an estimated beginning balance of $6.7 million. Of the total available, $27.3 million will be due to new lottery receipts. Based upon past years' experience, the 1998/99 budget projects interest earnings of $1.7 million. This budget also sets aside $5.9 million as a Systemwide Reserve, serving as a cushion for economic uncertainties and cash flow variations due to fluctuations in lottery receipts. Total lottery revenue available for distribution to the campuses during 1998/99 is projected to be $29.8 million. The 1998/99 budget remains largely the same as in the past with two exceptions. This budget projects to distribute $400,000 more in interest earnings to the campuses which is based on past budget experience. Also, the one-time distribution of lottery funds for technology access and support, included in the 1997/98 budget, is deleted from this budget.
