Staff described the dash-1 amendment as making small new allocations and several reductions tied to the updated revenue forecast. The amendment adds $120,000 in lottery funds to the Oregon Business Development Department for an economic development management system modernization project and reduces allocations because of projected declines: the Oregon Marijuana Account is reduced by $904,817 and the criminal fines account has a projected shortfall of $6,200,000. As a result of the criminal fines decline, the amendment reduces allocations to the Department of Corrections' Community Corrections program by $5,200,000 and reduces the Judicial Department State Court Technology Fund by $960,000. Staff said those amounts will be backfilled from the General Fund in a related bill.

Staff also described clarifying language added to direct the Department of Revenue to proportionally reduce allocations from the criminal fines account if declines continue; staff said the legislature did not previously include language explaining how to make proportional reductions.

Committee members asked for policy context on the criminal fines shortfall. One legislator asked whether the shortfall reflected reduced enforcement or lower crime rates; staff replied that collections have declined over time and that projected photo-radar revenue had been revised down after earlier estimates did not materialize. The staff witness said they could not fully explain court-by-court collection practices without further investigation.

After discussion, the subcommittee adopted the dash-1 amendment and moved House Bill 5049 as amended to the full committee with a due-pass recommendation. One member said they would not support the measure due to concerns about General Fund backfill and broader policy implications for criminal fines revenue and public safety funding.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Joint Committee On Ways and Means Subcommittee On Capital Construction 03/07/2025 8:00 AM","oneSentenceSummary","House Bill 5049, which adjusts allocations across several state accounts after a March 2025 revenue forecast showed shortfalls, was amended and moved to the full Ways and Means Committee on March 7, 2025.","taxTitle","Capital Construction, Ways and Means, Joint, Committees, Legislative, Oregon","taxId",18449,"location","Oregon","headline","","shortSummary",{"_33":77,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":78,"_41":79,"_43":80,"_45":81,"_47":82,"_49":83,"_51":84,"_53":85,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":86,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":87,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6292400,"Subcommittee backs amendment raising federal and other funds limits for capital projects including readiness center and expanded Klamath project",104,253000,357000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2526422-e1c2682b81aad63af14315f97696f1e2&start=253&end=357","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2526422-e1c2682b81aad63af14315f97696f1e2/thumbnail_253000.jpg","/articles/6292400/Oregon/Subcommittee-backs-amendment-raising-federal-and-other-funds-limits-for-capital-projects-including-readiness-center-and-expanded-Klamath-project","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6292400-2ed25f599f0fd91bc6b30402ab8fc9f8/orig.mp4?Expires=1775184408&Signature=VAnYKpCLsmaGjWYtVDWf5b2vAWY3ZLktUK8ib48xYMe1dvBMlm6ML152votF7p6XBwuwCQIxfIYZD~WrqnLaDG0lpTru0e17YYnhSTlMQvPc9GDRzUEPaQm~SM0JKPc1L4a1uEYkAiqAwI7n-H48CyrZ7PRMh~NGnFOZOgmo4Rl6TQn9MpGDihhjJjcwAy4h0r7fAS7ja35EWTJGZTWBz-hyFDBPDeNK~wDcRQsqnBnSr6rjZ3EKr1eQNLH2yulUknDYYXKUpFALv0mphJoLVOuuS9VSa9~TwdlObde-T1XAa-ViLwEFSnzHePJBa2nUCGQN7Ns-ZsI58ZT9k4h8Dg__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","House Bill 5051, the six-year capital construction expenditure limitation bill, was amended in the Capital Construction Subcommittee on March 7, 2025, and moved to the full Ways and Means Committee with a due-pass recommendation.

LFO staff told the subcommittee the dash-2 amendment increases federal funds capital construction expenditure limitation by $2,500,000 for the Oregon Military Department for the Washington County Readiness Center. The limitation for that project was originally established in the 21-23 biennium to build an operational readiness center in Hillsboro; the amendment brings the total federal funds limitation for that project to $28,500,000, staff stated.

Staff also said the bill increases other funds capital construction expenditure limitation by $2,500,000 in the Higher Education Coordinating Commission for the expanded Klamath Community College Childcare Resource Learning Center, reflecting the larger project scope described in testimony on House Bill 5050. \"The increase brings the state's total contribution to $4,000,000 on this project,\" staff said.

The subcommittee closed public testimony, adopted the dash-2 amendment, and moved House Bill 5051 as amended to the full committee with a due-pass recommendation. Committee members arranged which co-chairs and members would carry the bill to the Senate and House floors.

The transcript does not include a roll-call vote; motions to adopt the amendment and to move the bill were recorded and carried in committee.","House Bill 5051, the capital construction expenditure limitation bill, was amended in subcommittee to increase federal and other-funds limitations for specific projects and was moved to the full Ways and Means Committee with a due-pass recommendation on March 7, 2025.",{"_33":89,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":90,"_41":91,"_43":92,"_45":93,"_47":94,"_49":95,"_51":96,"_53":97,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":98,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":99,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6292386,"Committee approves technical and program changes bill to support 23‑25 budget; moves bill to full committee",101,1342000,1443000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2526422-e1c2682b81aad63af14315f97696f1e2&start=1342&end=1443","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2526422-e1c2682b81aad63af14315f97696f1e2/thumbnail_1342000.jpg","/articles/6292386/Oregon/Committee-approves-technical-and-program-changes-bill-to-support-2325-budget-moves-bill-to-full-committee","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6292386-43c7ce783d1ad7d5eb7851baf2767dd1/orig.mp4?Expires=1775184408&Signature=YGzSCuJYKi4m~50A83x0hIuwAIyikARouWJet~yqlbs2347EgbwP6Lntk0ksijTwyVgxS4xPmpNZ9GItdfF0X0HViy0M7WocHszZrRu0ys8WxVDMlLmuj7pf07aI9dJ8LaX-zYW3Mz-hTJgzYPgyd6OuoLyUM-EzMC4JMOMywiQjHYhNPNfzH1vhbKQpdSu~uPaAzf5P8dLjyEa9vb42zR3Yz7C-Q360MQlXBwGzfDrL-tBGVN2t1gcrZY9n7H0tepIEjbZPeH2z9WThHIpBytZTbs-CdyfbtxzzdWR~HuiRAqwBth933bXk-~wTpk1j1c3X-09nhO4Grp40wBKLmA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","Senate Bill 10, a program-change measure to implement and clarify statutory application of provisions in the 23-25 budget, was adopted as amended by the Capital Construction Subcommittee on March 7, 2025, and moved to the full Ways and Means Committee with a due-pass recommendation.

Staff described five primary changes in the dash-1 amendment: a $10.3 million transfer from the Educator Advancement Fund to the State School Fund to repay school districts for prior inclusion of federal fee-for-estimate forest revenue in state school fund calculations; allowing interest earned in the Oregon Environmental Restoration Fund to be credited to that fund; authorizing Oregon Parks and Recreation Department to expend insurance proceeds for on-site improvements to the Ruble House; extending the sunset for the school stabilization subaccount for wildfire-impacted schools to Dec. 31, 2025 to allow reimbursement through the close of the biennium; and transferring the moderate-income housing predevelopment loan program from the Oregon Facilities Authority to the Network for Affordable Housing under a Housing and Community Services Department grant (with associated budget changes implemented in Senate Bill 5550).

The subcommittee closed public testimony, adopted the dash-1 amendment, and moved Senate Bill 10 to the full committee with a due-pass recommendation.

The subcommittee adopted the dash-2 amendment and moved the measure to the full Ways and Means Committee with a due-pass recommendation.

LFO staff summarized the bill as a rebalance that replaces and rebalances state agency budgets for the remainder of the biennium. Staff said the dash-2 amendment implements specific budget adjustments and that the bill overall increases General Fund by $425.6 million, adds $120,000 in lottery funds (noted in a separate allocations bill), increases other funds limitation by about $864.4 million and increases federal funds expenditure limitation by about $1.2 billion. Staff also said the bill creates 35 positions (8.1 FTE). A substantial share of the rebalance is for the Oregon Health Authority (OHA) and the Department of Human Services (DHS): staff identified roughly $197.6 million General Fund and $161.4 million General Fund increases for OHA and DHS respectively, and cited large total-fund increases for both agencies.

Staff noted other changes, including $39.2 million General Fund, $3.0 million other funds and $13.3 million federal funds for personal services costs tied to pay equity adjustments (affecting DHS, Department of Corrections and Oregon Youth Authority) and roughly $15.7 million General Fund and $10.0 million other funds in debt service savings related to project bond sale delays.

A representative of eight cities testified in support of language changes in section 207 that those cities said were needed to allow projects to proceed; Jim McCauley, Legislative Director for the League of Oregon Cities, asked the committee to adopt those changes and thanked staff for assistance in moving the program forward.

After brief discussion the subcommittee adopted the dash-2 amendment and moved Senate Bill 5550, as amended, to the full Ways and Means Committee with a due-pass recommendation.","Senate Bill 5550, an omnibus rebalance of state agency budgets for the 23-25 biennium, was adopted in subcommittee and sent to the full Ways and Means Committee with a due-pass recommendation on March 7, 2025.",{"_33":113,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":114,"_41":115,"_43":116,"_45":117,"_47":118,"_49":119,"_51":120,"_53":121,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":122,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":123,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":74,"_75":74},6292403,"Committee approves amendment to increase state bond contribution for Klamath Community College childcare center",58,52000,110000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=2526422-e1c2682b81aad63af14315f97696f1e2&start=52&end=110","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/2526422-e1c2682b81aad63af14315f97696f1e2/thumbnail_52000.jpg","/articles/6292403/Oregon/Committee-approves-amendment-to-increase-state-bond-contribution-for-Klamath-Community-College-childcare-center","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6292403-7941639b1b7f6f3bebd4b16223d3fef4/orig.mp4?Expires=1775184408&Signature=OsjmMw5NuS4H9tCh70VIED80r3uXspGG-pMvh~aPyp2Xb7~IZCIBvJXFLP15u5k89MLfVHY95~CmCgcpoBosCTnwEmY6kfF9cnjv9~whmtQlk2wJgLyLp-W37dnNJrTqxOrKO4EjXJXWBCgJUQnNoyb17TWSoahgzf0PIYiVjL3wbcn6zG-s6Idw1gs3uyQ6nf9QdahPfVefgTDfrHQ2rBUfSgSxiOkyAF87hG66p7YzU2Mp-SxPIlCQkFySNoDf2n1gmwZwWqif9dZaTQb-tFq9j~wpHmb4VpSSb2njnkDNvSX1c0ETYmK4TOgdY6iUZo837eQ2y4ayFi8O1G5~EA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","House Bill 5050, which increases previously approved bond authorizations for a Klamath Community College childcare and learning center, moved out of the Capital Construction Subcommittee on March 7, 2025, with a due-pass recommendation to the full Ways and Means Committee.

The measure, described to the subcommittee by staffer Walt, amends prior bond authority for the Higher Education Coordinating Commission to add $2,500,000 in Article 11(G) bonds for the Klamath Community College Childcare Resource Learning Center. \"House Bill 5050 amends previously approved bond authorizations...Article 11 G bond authority for the Higher Education Coordinating Commission is increased by $2,500,000 for Klamath Community College's Childcare Resource Learning Center,\" Walt told the committee.

The subcommittee record shows the project was originally authorized at $1,500,000 for a planned 7,500-square-foot facility with a total project cost of $3,100,000. The project scope has since expanded to nearly 29,000 square feet with an updated cost estimate of $17,800,000; the increased authorization raises the state's total contribution to $4,000,000.

Committee members recorded brief discussion in support of the college. After closing the public hearing, the subcommittee adopted the dash-1 amendment and then voted to move House Bill 5050, as amended, to the full committee with a due-pass recommendation.

The subcommittee did not record a roll-call vote in the transcript excerpt; actions recorded in the hearing transcript are motions to adopt the amendment and to move the bill to the full committee with a due-pass recommendation.

Next steps: the bill will be considered by the full Ways and Means Committee; the subcommittee record indicates a co-chair will carry the measure to the full committee.","The Capital Construction Subcommittee adopted a dash-1 amendment to House Bill 5050 that increases state bond authorization for a Klamath Community College childcare and learning center, expanding the project and raising the state's total contribution to $4 million; the bill was moved to the full committee with a due-pass recommendation.","actionData","errors"]
