Major Program Changes
  • The Governor's Budget proposes $9.9 million General Fund for staffing to maximize revenue collection. This adjustment, coupled with the restoration of other furlough-related funding, is estimated to generate $90 million in General Fund revenue in 2010-11.

  • The Governor's Budget proposes $4.4 million General Fund and 55 positions to expand, and establish as permanent, the Agricultural Inspection Tax Leads program. Under an interagency agreement, the California Department of Food and Agriculture provides BOE with bills of lading from commercial trucks entering California with taxable property. BOE then determines whether the in-state recipients paid the applicable sales and use tax. This effort will generate $23 million in new General Fund revenues in 2010-11.
