Kasemeyer Chair, Senate Budget and Taxation Committee 3 West Miller Senate Building Annapolis MD Chair, House Appropriations Committee 121 House Office Building Annapolis MD Re: Statewide Contingency Account Quarterly Report Dear Senator Kasemeyer and Delegate Mcintosh: Please accept this letter and the attachments as our quarterly report on the Statewide Contingency Account for the Public School Construction Program (PSCP) as of September 30, This report is submitted consistent with the requirements of Education Article, Section )(4) which states: "On or before March 30, June 30, September 30, and December 31 of each year, the Interagency Committee [on School Construction] shall report to the General Assembly, in accordance with Section of the State Government Article, and the Department of Legislative Services on the balance in the fund [established under paragraph (1) of this subsection] as of the reporting date as the result of transfers or reversions required under this subsection and any expenditures." As of September 30, 2016, the PSCP Statewide Contingency Account had a balance of $46,164,266. Of this amount, $35,747,170, was reserved for specific Local Education Agencies (LEAs), including $6,560,690 for specific programs or initiatives and $29,186,480 that was undetermined as to its use at that time or was pending IAC/BPW approval of adjustments. At this time $5,345,766 is available for allocation to the FY 2018 Capital Improvement Program (CIP); $5,298,955 is reserved for specific LEAs and $46,811 is available for allocation Statewide. The balance of $5,071,330, reserved for other purposes, is unavailable for reallocation in the FY 2018 CIP. Each LEA will be notified in October 2016 of their undetermined reserved contingency balance, with a request to specify its use by November The $5,071,330 unavailable for allocation in the FY 2018 CIP consists of $500,000 for the Emergency Repair Fund, $313,690 for the Relocatable Repair Fund, $3,933,548 for the Supplemental Technology in Maryland Schools (TIMS) Program, $101,092 for the Qualified Zone Academy Bond (QZAB) Program, and $223,000 for the FY 2014 Security Initiative (SI).

2 The Honorable Edward J. Kasemeyer September 30,2016 Page 2 The $6,593,884 designation for specific programs or initiatives consisted of $1,763,818 for the FY 2012 Supplementary Appropriation, $3,397,609 for the FY 2013 Energy Efficiency Initiative (FY 2014 CIP - EEl), $1,254,457 for the FY 2014 Air Conditioning Initiative (FY 2014 CIP-ACI), and $178,000 for the Enrollment Growth and Relocatable Classrooms (FY 2017 CIP-EGRC). Notes: Those LEAs that have FY 2012 Supplemental Appropriation reserved contingency funds ($1,763,818) will continue to submit eligible project requests directly to the BPW to utilize their remaining balances. The $3,397,609 FY 2013 CIP - EEl fund balance will remain unallocated, as the LEAs with these reserved funds have no eligible FY 2014 CIP - EEl project requests that were not funded. Accordingly, once all expenditures on approved projects have been made, we will seek guidance as to the appropriate use of any unexpended balance. As of this writing, 86% or $21.6 million of the total $25 million is allocated to specific projects and 14% remains unallocated. Of the specific project allocations 95% or $20.5 million has been expended by PSCP. For the FY 2014 Air Conditioning Initiative (ACI), $1,254,457 is reserved for allocation to the FY 2018 CIP for Baltimore County ($1,016,562), Charles ($6,701) and Maryland School for the Blind ($198,000), and ($33,194) is available statewide. The $178,000 FY 2017 CIP - EGRC funds will be available in the FY 2018 CIP for Dorchester County. These allocations are over and above the CIP allocation that the LEA would otherwise receive. For the FY 2014 Security Initiative, $24.8 million or 99% of the $25 million was allocated to 22 LEAs and the Maryland School for the Blind for specific projects. The remaining $223,000 was allocated to Kent and Talbot County Public Schools. These two counties elected to utilize the FY 2013 Aging Schools Program funding to complete their security projects rather than participate in the Security Initiative. Of the specific project allocations 96%, or $23.8 million of the project allocations, have been expended. PSCP expects all of the approved projects to be expended by CY At this time, the unexpended allocation is anticipated to be at least $809,320. Attached is a summary of the funding by fiscal year showing the remaining appropriation balance in the accounts as of September 30, Page 2 of the Summary shows the dedicated purpose of the available balances.
