Establish a moral obligation pledge whereby the Legislature would express its expectation and aspiration that, if the Legislature reduces the rate of the petroleum inspection fee and if the funds in the petroleum inspection fund are insufficient to pay the principal and interest on the revenue obligations, the Legislature would make an appropriation from the general fund sufficient to pay the principal and interest on the revenue obligations.
Joint Finance/Legislature: Delete $180 million of revenue obligation authority so that a net amount of $270 million would be authorized. See "Commerce -- Building and Environmental Regulation" for more information relating to this provision.

1. 1999-01 ENUMERATED PROJECTS [LFB Papers 247, 248, 249, 250, 252, 253, 254 and 391]
Building Commission: Provide $755,485,100 from all funding sources of enumerated 1999-01 financing authority for: (a) specific enumerated projects ($465,432,600); and (b) all agency projects ($290,052,500).
Specify that funding for these projects be drawn from the following sources: (a) $573,727,900 from new general obligation bonding authority; (b) $81,273,000 from general obligation bonding authority that is currently authorized; (c) $10,148,100 of new revenue bonding authority; (d) $10,400,500 from agency operating funds; (e) $33,824,600 from federal funds; and (f) $46,111,000 from agency gifts, grants and other receipts.
Joint Finance: Make the following modifications to the Building Commission recommendations: (a) delete $15,000,000 in general fund supported bonding associated with the proposed Wisbuild Initiative; (b) delete $3,700,000 in program revenue supported bonding associated with the deletion of the production bakery project under the Department of Corrections; (c) delete $850,000 in program revenue supported borrowing associated with the deletion of restroom improvement projects at State Fair Park and transfer $1,000,000 of bonding from PR supported to GPR supported borrowing; (d) delete the enumeration of the Milwaukee Lakeshore State park development project recommended to be funded with $1,000,000 in existing general obligation stewardship bonding; (e) delete the $5,307,000 in self amortizing general obligation bonding and provide an additional $6,756,700 in general fund supported bonding and $1,106,400 in gifts and grants to the Educational Communications Board associated with the conversion to digital television projects; (f) provide $3,500,000 in general fund supported borrowing and $350,000 in gifts and grants to Milwaukee Area Technical College for conversion to digital television projects; and (g) provide $2,800,000 in general fund supported bonding and $280,000 in gifts and grants to the UW-system for conversion to digital television projects.
Further, specify that $57,527,000 in general fund supported general obligation bonding be provided under the current law bonding appropriations established for the agency for which the project is being completed rather than under the Wisbuild Initiative -- "major building renovation," as recommended by the Building Commission. In addition, separately enumerate $375,000 of related federal funding. Further, increase Wisbuild segregated revenue supported borrowing associated with DNR-Hayward Office facility project by $174,400 and make a corresponding reduction in Wisbuild funding from agency operating funds. The Wisbuild Initiative project authority would be as follows: (a) $64,923,000 in new general fund supported general obligation bonding; (2) $33,780,000 in new program revenue supported general obligation bonding; (3) $1,673,400 in new, segregated revenue supported general obligation bonding; (4) $1,726,600 in new segregated revenue obligation authority; (5) $4,515,400 in existing general obligation bonding; (6) $1,254,400 in agency operating funds; and (7) $305,800 in federal funding.
Further, enumerate the projects recommended under the Wisbuild Initiative – "major building renovation" category in the 1999-01 state building program under the specific agencies involved, and delete them from the Wisbuild category. This would establish additional project enumerations for 10 major renovation projects.
Conference Committee/Legislature: Make the following modifications to the 1999-01 Building Program: (a) provide $1,000,000 in general fund supported borrowing, $1,000,000 in agency operating funds and $4,000,000 in gifts and grants for the construction of a Swiss Cultural Center in New Glarus; (b) provide $1,000,000 in general fund supported borrowing and $4,074,000 in gifts and grants for the construction of a Milwaukee Police Athletic League youth activities center; (c) provide $2,000,000 in existing general obligation bonding, $5,000,000 in agency operating funds and $2,000,000 in federal funds for the Milwaukee Lakeshore Park development project; (d) delete $9,409,700 in general fund supported borrowing, $1,350,000 in federal funding and $1,106,400 in gifts and grants for Educational Communications Board conversion to digital television projects; (e) delete $3,500,000 in general fund supported borrowing and $350,000 in gifts and grants for Milwaukee Area Technical College for conversion to digital television projects; and (f) delete $2,800,000 in general fund supported bonding and $280,000 in gifts and grants for UW-system conversion to digital television projects.
The funding source for the 1999-01 enumerated project authority by agency as recommended by the Building Commission, Joint Committee on Finance and the Conference Committee/Legislature are shown in Table 1 which follows. A listing of individual major agency projects, as recommended by the Building Commission, Joint Finance Committee and Conference Committee/Legislature are provided in Table 2.
