Co-Chair Foster provided information about the meeting
process. He intended to spend approximately 10 minutes on
each department.
^DEPARTMENT OF REVENUE
1:35:05 PM
MICHAELLA ANDERSON, STAFF, REPRESENTATIVE BART LEBON,
provided a subcommittee report for the Department of
Revenue (DOR) FY 20 budget with a prepared narrative (copy
on file):
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee for the
Department of Revenue submits a recommended operating
budget for FY 2020 to the House Finance Committee as

Designated General Funds (DGF) $2,597.3
Other Funds $290,662.4
Federal Funds $79,816.9
Total $398,070.1
Ms. Anderson reported that the proposal fell just under
both the FY 20 adjusted base and the governor's proposed
budget. She delineated that the subcommittee accepted all
but two of the Governor's FY 2020 request with the
following changes:
Deny the Governor's request for 50% Travel Reduction
for Mental Health Trust Operations and Long Term Care
Ombudsman
Deny the Governor's requests and recommend they be

requested budget and amendments are as follows:
Remove 4 vacant positions throughout the
Department
Reduce travel by 50% ($48.6) thousand in General
Funds
1:37:00 PM
Co-Chair Wilson asked whether the funding for the four
vacant positions were removed along with the positions. Ms.
Anderson answered in the affirmative. She detailed that one
PCN (position control number) was eliminated form the Tax
Division in the amount of $78.6 thousand in general funds
(GF) and three positions were deleted from the Permanent
Fund Division in the amount of $69.3 thousand and two
part-time seasonal positions for $47 thousand totaling
$195.1 thousand.
1:37:45 PM
^DEPARTMENT OF MILITARY AND VETERANS AFFAIRS
1:38:08 PM
Ms. Anderson provided a subcommittee report for the
Department of Military and Veterans Affairs (DMVA) FY 20
budget with a prepared narrative (copy on file):
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee for the
Department of Military and Veteran Affairs submits a
recommended operating budget for FY 2020 to the House
Finance Committee as follows:
Fund Source: (dollars are in thousands)
Unrestricted General Funds (UGF) $16,329.8
Designated General Funds (DGF) $28.4
Other Funds $11,138.7
Federal Funds $31,294.3
Total $58,836.2
Ms. Anderson reported that the proposal was one half
million [$540.1 (3.2%)] dollars below the FY20 Adjusted
Base. The Subcommittees recommended budget was $7,859.8
million [(32.5%)] below the FY 15 Management Plan.
The Subcommittee recommends accepting all of the
Governor's FY 2020 request with the following changes:
Deny the Governor's request for 50% Travel Reduction
for Alaska Aerospace Corporation and Facilities
Maintenance
Deny the Governor's request to delete $300.0 of UGF

The Subcommittee accepted several the Governor's
requests, including the following:
Remove a position in the Commissioner's Office and a
position in Homeland Security and Emergency
Management.
Reduced travel by 50% ($103.3) thousand in General
Funds.
Reduce funding for the Alaska State Defense Force
($210.9) thousand in General Funds.
Increase of $50.0 thousand in General Funds for
Funeral Honor Support for Alaska's Veterans.
An increase of $300.0 thousand SDPR authority to
support Emergency Management Assistance Compact
requests.
1:39:42 PM
Co-Chair Wilson asked about the acronym used. Ms. Anderson
explained that SDPR was Statutorily Designated Program
Receipts. Co-Chair Wilson asked if the funding existed or
reflected an increase.
MICHAEL PARTLOW, FISCAL ANALYST, LEGISLATIVE FINANCE
DIVISION, explained that the Emergency Management Compact
was an agreement between states for reimbursement for
sending United States National Guard support during
emergencies. The department had to request additional
spending authority in the prior year due to the number of
disasters. The department was anticipating an increased
need for assistance in other states.
1:40:49 PM
^DEPARTMENT OF PUBLIC SAFETY
1:41:02 PM
JOE BYRNES, STAFF, REPRESENTATIVE BART LEBON, discussed the
budget closeout for the Department of Public Safety (DPS)
with a prepared narrative (copy on file):
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee for the
Department Public Safety submits a recommended
operating budget for FY2020 to the House Finance
Committee as follows:
Fund Source: (dollars are in thousands)
Unrestricted General Funds (UGF) $160,939.8
Designated General Funds (DGF) $8,446.1
Other Funds $11,727.6
Federal Funds $25,636.1
Total $206,749.6
The House Finance Subcommittee on the Department
Public Safety Budget held five meetings with the
agency. The Subcommittee reviewed and acted on the
Governor's FY2020 budget request with the following
highlights:
Reduced spending by $396.7 (-0.2%) in Unrestricted
General Funds from the FY20 Adjusted Base, which is a
reduction of $768.6 (-0.5%) in Unrestricted General
Funds from the FY19 Management Plan.
The Subcommittee recommends accepting all of the
Governor's FY2020 request with the following changes:
? Deny the Governor's reduction in Village Public
Safety Officer (VPSO) Program
Appropriation by $3,000.0
? Remove Department Level Intent "At the discretion of
the Office of Management and
Budget, funding may be transferred between all
appropriations in the Department."
? Modifying conditional language to allow for the
carry-forward of Fire and Life Safety
unexpected and unobligated balance after the end of
the Fiscal Year 2019
? Transferring $250.0 in UGF from the Alaska State
Trooper Detachments to the Alaska
Wing Civil Air Patrol allowing the state to leverage
additional resources to support search
and rescue efforts in the form of volunteer hours and
adding intent language to strengthen
the liaison between the state and the Civil Air Patrol
? Adding intent language for the Department of Public
Safety work to address the high rate of
sex crimes in rural Alaska by making it a priority to
hire two sex crimes investigators (one in
Bethel and one in Kotzebue) along with any requisite
support staff using existing
Department resources.
? Adding intent language for the Department of Public
Safety to disburse funding meant for
the VPSO Program to VPSO grant recipients and for
grant recipients to utilize the funding
for recruitment and retention of VPSOs and for the
Department to support VPSO
contractor's efforts to provide public safety services
to the maximum geographic area
surround their duty station.
? Reducing funding for the Alaska State Trooper
Detachments by $506.365 to align funding with historic
expenditure levels
1:44:03 PM
Vice-Chair Ortiz asked about the last bullet on the
document that addressed reducing funding for trooper
detachments. He wondered if the reduction was a result of
unfilled positions. Mr. Byrnes stated that the troopers had
approximately 40 unfilled position and in FY 18 the
department lapsed $2 million from personal services funds
and spent the funding on capital outlays. The original
proposal reduced the funding from the Village Public Safety
Officer (VPSO) program. The subcommittee made an amendment
to the decrement and had taken it from the trooper
detachments instead. Vice-Chair Ortiz asked whether the
Department of Public Safety (DPS) had enough funding
remaining to fill needed positions to ensure public safety.
Mr. Byrnes relayed that the subcommittee felt that the
budget maintained adequate funds to cover troopers expected
costs.
Co-Chair Wilson inquired about the intent language relating
to the high rate of sex crimes in the state and proposed
additional investigators. She asked whether there were open
PCNs that might be changed to accomplish hiring two
additional investigators, or if the positions were new. She
thought intent language did not normally include requests
for new positions.
MORGAN FOSS, FISCAL ANALYST, LEGISLATIVE FINANCE DIVISION,
explained that currently DPS investigators were also hired
as state troopers and the department could use a vacant PCN
as an investigator. The position was typically hired at
slightly higher pay due to experience. Co-Chair Wilson
asked for an explanation as to why Bethel and Kotzebue were
singled out over others. Mr. Byrnes stated that the
amendment sponsor's intention was to post investigators in
rural Alaska to investigate the high rate of sex crimes in
the areas. Co-Chair Wilson wondered whether there were
statistics available that demonstrated increased need over
other communities.
1:48:37 PM
Representative LeBon stated that during the subcommittee
discussion on the topic, the location was thoroughly
discussed. The conclusion was that any central location
that served other rural communities would suffice.
Representative Josephson followed up on Vice-Chair Ortiz's
question. He asked whether funds were lapsed from the
previous fiscal year. Mr. Byrnes stated that the funding
did not actually lapse. The money had been reallocated from
the personal services line and had been moved to capital
outlays. Representative Josephson asked about the amount of
funding. Mr. Byrnes estimated the amount was approximately
$1.7 million. Representative Josephson recollected that
there had been a noticeable reduction in DPS PCNs and asked
if he was correct. Mr. Byrnes recalled that the FY 19
management plan had 805 positions and both the governor's
budget and subcommittee proposal had 807 positions.
Ms. Foss addressed Representative Josephson's inquiry. She
ascertained that he recalled the difference between the
governor's original budget request and the amended budget
request.
1:51:41 PM
^UNIVERSITY
1:51:51 PM
TJ (THOMAS) PRESLEY, STAFF, REPRESENTATIVE ANDY JOSEPHSON,
noted that the subcommittee held six public meetings. He
reviewed the subcommittee's proposed budget for the
University with a prepared narrative (copy on file):
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee for the
University of Alaska recommends that the House Finance
Committee accept the FY20 adjusted base as amended by
the subcommittee.
The numbers-only budget with amendment totals:
Fund Source: (dollars are in thousands)
Unrestricted General Funds (UGF) $337,033.5
Designated General Funds (DGF) $331,824.1
Other Funds $82,599.5
Federal Funds $140,225.9
Total $891,683.0
Unrestricted General Funds decreased by $33,566.2
million, a 9.1% difference from the FYI 5 Management
Plan to the FY20 House Subcommittee budget
recommendation.
From the FY20 Adjusted Base, the House Subcommittee
recommendations reflects a total increase in
Unrestricted General Funds of $10,000.0, a 3.1%
increase.
The subcommittee accepted the following:
Governor's decrements to Federal, CIP, and, I/A
receipts. Mental Health Trust recommendations and
funding Vo-Tech Ed receipt authority for the
University.
The subcommittee denied the following:
The Governor's $154 million UGF decrement
The Governor's $154 DGF increment Funding and
structure changes to the community campuses[divide
University of Alaska and University of Alaska
community campuses into separate appropriations
Increase subsidy of $24 million for community campuses
Fund switch between University of Alaska Anchorage and
Juneau campuses for the newly created allocation for
the Anchorage Community and Technical College and
Southeast School of Career Education]
Additionally, the subcommittee adopted the following
budget amendments:
1)Increment to the University of Alaska - $10,000.0
UGF
2)Deny the Governor's proposed structure change
creating a separate appropriation for University of
Alaska Community Campuses
1:54:55 PM
Co-Chair Wilson referred to the $33,566.2 decrease from the
2015 management plan. She asked if the UGF at the time was
approximately $304 million. Mr. Presley deferred the answer
to Mr. Partlow.
Mr. Partlow responded that the total UGF in the FY 15
management plan was $365.166.6 million.
Vice-Chair Johnston asked how the subcommittee came up with
a $10 million increase and if the increase was intentional.
Mr. Presley stated that the University forwarded the Board
of Regents' full request in the amount of roughly $33
million. He recalled that the $10 million was offered by
the subcommittee. The university indicated that the funding
would be used for Title 9 regulatory compliance, increased
facilities maintenance cost, and campus safety
enhancements.
1:56:40 PM
^Judiciary
1:56:58 PM
TOM ATKINSON, STAFF, REPRESENTATIVE ANDY JOSEPHSON,
reviewed the subcommittee's proposed budget for the
Judiciary with a prepared narrative (copy on file):
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee for the Alaska
Court System held five meetings (open to the public)
with the Court System during our review of their FY20
budget request.
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee recommends that
the House Finance Committee accept the FY20 adjusted
base budget as amended by the subcommittee. The
numbers-only budget with amendment totals:
Fund Source: (dollars are in thousands)
Unrestricted General Funds (UGF) $106,152.0
Designated General funds (DGF) $518.0
Other Funds $2,206.1
Federal Funds $975.6
Total $109,851.7
Unrestricted General Funds decreased by $5,657.5, a
5.2% difference from the FY15 Management Plan to the
FY20 House Subcommittee budget recommendation.
From the FY20 Adjusted Base, the House Subcommittee
recommendation reflects a total increase in
Unrestricted General Funds of $707.1, a 0.7 percent
increase.
The subcommittee accepted all the Court System
increment requests the governor submitted, except for
four increments, totaling $3,098.0 that would have re-
opened the courts on Friday afternoons.
Additionally, the subcommittee adopted the following
budget amendments:
1) Add Deputy Therapeutic Courts Coordinator & 2
Probation Officers add $313.3 UGF
2) A technical amendment to remove 0MB wordage
Mr. Atkinson relayed that the requested increments included
anticipated higher lease costs in some rural communities,
the Juneau Mental Health Court, and for training mental
health court staff.
1:59:57 PM
Vice-Chair Johnston referenced not accepting the increment
to open the courts on Friday afternoon. She asked if the
subcommittee had addressed the backlog and whether early
closure made sense. Mr. Atkinson relayed that there had
been much discussion and questioning. The subcommittee
concluded that the early closure was not affecting the pace
of court cases moving through the system.
Representative Sullivan-Leonard had conversations with
individuals from the courts that had referenced a backlog
and wondered why the matter had not been perceived the same
in subcommittee. Mr. Atkinson was not convinced that
reinstating the additional hours was currently necessary.
Representative Josephson commented that the subcommittee
had very robust debate on the issue. A motion was heard
and was defeated by a 4 to 4 vote. He relayed that the
court system had prioritized the issue of pay equity for
staff versus reinstatement of Friday afternoon hours. He
understood the pay equity would be addressed in the overall
budget versus the Judiciary budget.
2:02:07 PM
Co-Chair Wilson wondered if there had been discussions with
the public defenders or Office of Children's Services (OCS)
and other entities that used the Court System and how it
affected them. Mr. Atkinson stated that the subcommittee
had not considered remarks from other agencies. Co-Chair
Wilson wondered whether any hearings were heard on Friday
afternoon. Mr. Atkinson understood that there were no
hearings on Friday afternoons, and judges had used the time
to catch up on work. The court had still accepted domestic
violence restraining orders and other emergency matters on
Friday afternoon. Co-Chair Wilson hoped that when the
subject was revisited that other agencies that utilized the
court were brought into the discussion.
Co-Chair Wilson asked about the addition of two probation
officers and asked whether the subcommittee had
consideration data on probation officers' caseloads. Mr.
Atkinson stated that there had been no statistics to
consider. Judiciary testified that the Therapeutic Courts
were hugely successful and doubled in number and more staff
was necessary to continue the increase and success. Co-
Chair Wilson asked if the probation officers and the Deputy
Therapeutic Courts Coordinator were necessary for the
Therapeutic Courts. Mr. Atkinson stated that the probation
officers would be in a different department funded through
an RSA (Reimbursable Services Agreement) from the Court
System. He added that typically Therapeutic Court outcomes
resulted in less imprisonment and more probation.
2:05:32 PM
Co-Chair Wilson asked where the Therapeutic Court
coordinator position would be located. Mr. Atkinson
believed that the position would be placed in the third
judicial district in Anchorage where there were multiple
Therapeutic Courts. Co-Chair Wilson asked about the two
probation officers, and their association with the budget
request. Mr. Atkinson stated that the probation officers
were connected to the therapeutic court but were not
Judiciary employees. Co-Chair Wilson asked who the
probation officers worked for. Mr. Atkinson replied that
they were employees of the Department of Health and Social
Services (DHSS).
Co-Chair Wilson wondered why the request was in the
Judiciary budget.
2:06:41 PM
Representative Josephson recalled that former
Representative Mike Hawker had wanted to put all the
Therapeutic Court PCNs within the court system for budget
simplification.
DAVID TEAL, DIRECTOR, LEGISLATIVE FINANCE DIVISION,
recounted that Representative Josephson's recollection was
correct. He thought it was important to remember that the
Therapeutic Court was not an additional duty of the judge
and offenders were treated differently. Therapeutic Court
tended to rely on probation and parole versus
incarceration. However, Therapeutic Court did not increase
a judge's workload.
Co-Chair Wilson was trying to discern the caseload for the
probation officers. Mr. Atkinson stated that no statistics
were requested or provided. Subcommittee members did not
ask the question.
2:08:55 PM
Representative Josephson thought that a significant focus
was placed on the question of the court being open Friday
afternoons and questions regarding pay equity. He indicated
that some deference had been shown Judiciary regarding
budget requests as a co-equal branch of government.
Judiciary had been good "stewards" of the state's budget
and the request was honored without question.
Co-Chair Wilson appreciated Representative Josephson's
remarks. She believed in order to hold other agencies
accountable, it was important to consider statistics.
Representative Merrick asked if there had been
consideration given to closing at different times during
the week. Mr. Atkinson answered in the negative.
2:10:55 PM
DOUG WOOLIVER, DEPUTY ADMINISTRATIVE DIRECTOR, ALASKA COURT
SYSTEM, affirmed that the probation officers were staff of
DHSS and were included in the Judiciary budget for
Therapeutic Courts. Judiciary used RSAs to transfer the
funds to various entities; public defenders for legal
services, DHSS for probation officers; funding for their
services was included in Judiciary's budget. He verified
that the deputy coordinator was in Anchorage and the
funding was through Therapeutic Courts budget.
2:11:49 PM
Vice-Chair Ortiz relayed that there had been discussion in
subcommittee not to pursue opening courts on Friday
afternoons. He understood that the request had originated
in the governor's budget. Mr. Wooliver replied that
initially it was not requested in the original Judiciary
budget released in December 2018. He noted that the Court
System had wanted to reopen on Friday afternoons but did
not include it in the original budget request because the
afternoon closure had not been proven to cause a major
bottleneck in court operations. He referenced statements by
the governor that he wanted to restore the court's Friday
afternoon hours. He reasoned that if the governor was
willing to pay the cost, Judiciary was interested and
desired to restore Friday hours. Subsequently, courts met
with the Office of Management and Budget (OMB), and was
assured that the governor would support the budget request.
Judiciary amended its budget request to include Friday
afternoon hours. The subcommittee had debated many of the
same issues the court had considered.
Mr. Wooliver continued to address the question of afternoon
court closure. He reported that the court lost 26 days of
accumulated court hearing time over the course of one year.
He expressed some concern that the lack of hearing time
might eventually cascade into a larger and larger problem.
He recognized the fiscal implication of the request and the
challenging fiscal environment of the state. He concluded
that if the governor and legislature approved the request
the court system would comply.
2:14:46 PM
Vice-Chair Ortiz asked Mr. Wooliver to remind the committee
of the savings gained by not opening courts Friday
afternoons. Mr. Wooliver explained that court employees
worked one half hour longer each Monday through Thursday
and the early Friday closure accounted for a reduction of
1.5 hours each week totaling 36 hours per week, which saved
$2 million per year. He furthered that in the same fiscal
year Friday hours were reduced, staff was also reduced by
15 positions for a savings total of $3.5 million per year.
He communicated that $3.5 million per year reflected the
total cost to reopen on Friday afternoons. Vice-Chair Ortiz
summarized that considering the pros and cons, there was a
fiscal savings of $3.5 million along with some other
benefits. He mentioned that judges had more time to do
paperwork. He asked whether he was correct. Mr. Wooliver
answered in the affirmative.
2:16:38 PM
Representative Sullivan-Leonard asked Mr. Wooliver to
discuss pay equity as mentioned by Representative
Josephson. Mr. Wooliver discussed collective bargaining
agreements. He reminded the committee that the legislature
approved collective bargaining agreements salary
adjustments. Historically, when the legislature approved
COLAs (Cost of Living Adjustments) the legislature and
governor had provided a similar increase for non-covered
employees. The increase was not offered to Judiciary in the
prior year and the courts requested a pay adjustment for
Judiciary employees. He acknowledged that the increase was
not part of the subcommittee process.
2:18:09 PM
Co-Chair Wilson referenced the Therapeutic Courts' two new
probation officers as proposed by the budget subcommittee.
She restated her prior question regarding why they were
requested. Mr. Wooliver relayed that probation officers
handled approximately 25 clients each. He explained that
the Therapeutic Courts' probation officers had different
duties than Department of Corrections (DOC) officers. The
courts probation officers helped find housing, jobs, and
helped facilitate drug testing and other conditions placed
on the offender by the court. Judiciary wanted to add
another officer in Fairbanks. He delineated that
Therapeutic Court was popular in Fairbanks and Judiciary
wanted to expand it to include a veterans component,
either as a new court or supplement a veterans component
of the therapeutic court. The proposal would necessitate
another probation officer in Fairbanks. The other community
to gain a probation officer was Palmer. The position was
originally funded by a federal grant that expired soon and
was unable to extend the position. Co-Chair Wilson asked if
there were vacancies for probation officers. Mr. Wooliver
answered in the negative. The type of probation officer
jobs was typically filled. Co-Chair Wilson asked if the
Veterans Court had started, and if the budget could support
the addition. Mr. Wooliver stated that there was interest
in Fairbanks, but the program was not yet started. He
expected that additional funding was not necessary. He
noted that the number of participants in therapeutic court
varied. Co-Chair Wilson recalled that the officer in
Fairbanks was necessary because of the expansion of the
therapeutic court in Fairbanks. Mr. Wooliver offered that
the court was unable to expand unless a probation officer
was hired. Co-Chair Wilson asked how many cases were
assigned per officer. Mr. Wooliver reiterated that 25 cases
were assigned per officer.
2:21:53 PM
Vice-Chair Johnston followed up on Co-Chair Wilson's
remarks. She asked if the probation officers under DHSS
were covered under the same union as DOC officers. Mr.
Wooliver was uncertain. Vice-Chair Johnston asked if there
was anticipation of receiving federal funds for the
therapeutic court expansion in Fairbanks. Mr. Wooliver
answered in the negative. Vice-Chair Johnston asked about
lapsing federal funds in Palmer. She asked if the funds
were lapsing due to not meeting a benchmark. Mr. Wooliver
stated that "ironically, the reason was due to meeting a
benchmark." He clarified that the federal budget provided
seed money for certain programs and the funds could be
extended if implementing the program was problematic. He
indicated that the funds were for the Family Infant Toddler
(FIT) Court, which was very successful.
^DEPARTMENT OF LAW
2:23:51 PM
Mr. Atkinson reviewed the subcommittee's proposed budget
for the Department of Law (LAW) with a prepared narrative
(copy on file).
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee held five
meetings (open to the public) with the Department of
Law during our review of their FY20 budget request.
RECOMMENDATIONS:
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee recommends that
the House Finance Committee accept the FY20 adjusted
base budget as amended by the subcommittee.
The numbers-only budget with amendment totals:
Fund Source: (dollars are in thousands)
Unrestricted General Funds (UGF) $52,174.7
Designated General Funds (DGF) $2,877.7
Other Funds $31,242.6
Federal Funds $1,494.0
Total $87,789.0
Unrestricted General Funds decreased by $7,100.6, a
12.0 percent difference from the FY15 Management Plan
to the FY20 House Subcommittee budget recommendation.
From the FY20 Adjusted Base, the House Subcommittee
recommendation reflects a total increase in
Unrestricted General Funds of $1,754.2, a 3.5 percent
increase.
The subcommittee accepted all increment and decrement
requests the governor submitted, including an
increment submitted March 14, 2019 for an Information
Technology salary adjustment billed to the Department
of Law. The subcommittee also accepted the
Department's fund source change-from UGF to
Interagency Receipts-to maintain the Department's
capacity to accommodate a change in their rate
structure.
Additionally, the subcommittee adopted the following
budget amendments to:
1) Delete 0MB wordage that would allow funding to be
transferred between all appropriations in the
Department.
2) Add, in the Criminal Division, five attorneys and
ten support staff in the following locations:
An Attorney IV and Office Assistant II in Juneau,
and an Office Assistant II in Ketchikan in the
First Judicial District.
An Office Assistant II in Nome, in the Second
Judicial District.
Two Attorneys IV, a Law Office Assistant I in
Anchorage, in the Third Judicial District:
Anchorage.
A V/W Paralegal in Palmer, and a V/W Paralegal I
in Kenai in the Third Judicial District: Outside
Anchorage.
A V/W Paralegal I in Bethel and an Attorney IV
and Law Office Assistant I in Fairbanks in the
Fourth Judicial District.
An Attorney IV, a V/W Paralegal I, and an Office
Assistant II in Anchorage for Criminal
Appeals/Special Litigation.
3) Add language signifying the legislature's intent
that the Department conduct and document an assessment
of the benefits of locating a prosecutor and support
staff in Utqiagvik, in the Second Judicial District
2:26:44 PM
Co-Chair Wilson asked about supporting documentation for
the addition of the five attorneys and additional support
staff. Mr. Atkinson referred to the narrative. Co-Chair
Wilson clarified that she was asking about statistics to
justify why more staff was being added. Mr. Atkinson
relayed that the staff was deployed where the caseload was
the largest. The amendment grew out of the public safety
action plan that called for adding 5 new prosecutors each
year for three years. Co-Chair Wilson asked if the
subcommittee was following an action plan from a previous
administration and wondered what data justified the plan.
She thought that there should be statistics to show the
specific needs for the demand. She wondered about
documentation from LAW that supported the plan's request.
Mr. Atkinson stated that documentation was not requested of
the department. He furthered that questions were asked and
subsequently answered by LAW. The department acknowledged
that it could do more work if additional resources were
appropriated.
2:29:47 PM
Co-Chair Wilson requested that Mr. Atkinson request
additional information from LAW describing past
appropriations and caseloads. She wanted to know how many
attorneys were currently in the areas where the new
positions would be deployed and gain a better understanding
of the need. She perceived that there might be savings by
hearing more cases and decreasing the high number of
defendants waiting in jail for trial. She announced that
she could not make a judgement without more information.
Representative Josephson interjected that the
subcommittee's decision was not random. He clarified that
the subcommittee reviewed the subcommittee work from the
Senate. The Senate had received a document that indicated
that of the roughly 215 staff and attorneys, 90 were new
employees. He asserted that the reason for the high
turnover was a ridiculously high workload. He offered that
some were lured away by bonuses from the United States
Department of Justice. In addition, cases were being turned
away. The previous administration had concluded that a
staff increase was necessary. He did not intend to suggest
that the request was fungible. He noted the other active
crime bills could increase the Department of Corrections'
budget by $40 million and did not want the appropriation to
replace any need for other additional attorneys. He had
been aligned with the House Judiciary Committee chair in
thinking that additional attorneys were "direly needed" and
the subcommittee agreed with the position.
2:33:32 PM
Co-Chair Wilson thought that if the numbers were not based
on statistics it was difficult to decide. She cautioned
against circumventing other legislation in the request
before the bills reached committee. She wondered whether
the increased staff was necessary to cover the current case
level. She felt that some statistics from the department
were necessary. She thanked the subcommittee for its
thorough vetting process and hard work. Representative
Josephson cited LAW testimony that the positions were
currently needed.
Vice-Chair Johnston followed up on Co-Chair Wilson's
comments. She asked for tracking the proposed cost savings
that the additional positions could provide within the
department by reducing turnover and its effect on other
departments.
^DEPARTMENT OF ADMINISTRATION
2:35:24 PM
ROBERT ERVINE, STAFF, VICE-CHAIR JENNIFER JOHNSTON,
reviewed the subcommittee's proposed budget for the
Department of Administration (DOA) with a prepared
narrative (copy on file):
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee for the
Department of Administration submits the following
recommendations for the FY 2020 operating budget:
Fund Source (dollars in thousands)
Designated General Funds (DGF) $33,117.1
Other Funds $269,521.9
Federal Funds $4,105.3
Total Budget $378,317.7
The UGF difference from the FY20 Adjusted Base is $6.5
thousand.
Budget Action:
The Governor's FY 20 budget proposed a total of 36
changes from the FY 20 adjusted base budget. After
deliberating and voting on each item, the subcommittee
adopted 29 of the changes.
The subcommittee was unable to adopt the following
recommendations due to concerns with
disruptions to critical state services:
? $122,400 travel reduction to the Alaska Oil and Gas
Conservation Commission
? $91,900 travel reduction to the Office Public
Advocacy
? $180,100 travel reduction to the Public Defenders.
The affected agencies expressed concerns that travel
reductions posed a risk to their ability to perform
their statutorily- and constitutionally- required
functions.
Additionally, the subcommittee was unable to accept
the recommended reductions to Public Broadcasting due
to concerns with disrupting communities' ability to
receive emergency signals and access to essential
information. The subcommittee spent time discussing
the importance of the emergency infrastructure and
attempting to discern the critical infrastructure from
the less critical.
Subcommittee Amendments:
The subcommittee removed language inserted by the
department to allow unlimited transfers across
appropriations. This language was removed so that the
Legislature can maintain its power of appropriation.
The subcommittee added an amendment with intent
language requiring the department to create a report
outlining past and present savings from consolidation
of shared services and information technology. The
report will allow future legislature's the ability to
make results-based decisions.
2:37:58 PM
Mr. Ervine added that the total of the rejected cuts
proposed by the governor was just under $4 million.
Co-Chair Wilson referenced page 1 of the narrative report
that noted the UGF difference from the FY20 Adjusted Base
is $6.5 thousand. She asked whether the amount was an
increase or a decrease. Mr. Ervine replied that the amount
reflected an increase.
^DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND SOCIAL SERVICES
2:38:24 PM
ERIN SHINE, STAFF, VICE-CHAIR JENNIFER JOHNSTON, reviewed
the subcommittee's proposed budget for the Department of
Health and Social Services (DHSS) with a prepared narrative
(copy on file):
The House Finance Budget Subcommittee for the
Department of Health and Social Services recommends an
operating budget for FY20 to the House Finance
Committee as follows:
Fund Source: (dollars are in thousands)
Unrestricted General Funds (UGF) $1,112,811.0
Designated General Funds (DGF) $86,071.8
Other Funds $148,445.
Federal Funds $1,908,413.9
Total $3,255,741.7
The UGF difference from FY20 Adjusted Base to the FY20
House Subcommittee Recommended budget is a reduction
of $20,346.7, a decrease of 1.8 percent.
Ms. Shine explained that the budget narrative broke the
budget recommendations into four categories.
2:42:16 PM
Ms. Shine continued to address the budget narrative on page
3:

2:43:38 PM
Additions and Deletions
In addition to the Governor's Amended Budget FY20
items, the subcommittee considered and recommends
adopting the following items:
? Remove language inserted by OMB to allow unlimited
transfers across appropriations;
? Insert department level intent to allow the
Commissioner of the Department of Health and Social
Services to transfer up to $30,000.0 between all
appropriations, with the exception that no transfers
be made from Medicaid Services Appropriations;
? Replacing $1,500.0 of unsustainable Alcohol and
Other Drug Treatment and Prevention Funds with
Recidivism Reduction Funds for Behavioral Health
Treatment and Recovery Grants;
? (technical amendment to correct omission in the OMB
2/13/19 budget release) restore $65.0 Marijuana
Education and Treatment funding for Behavioral Health
Administration
? Insert intent language for the Department of Health
and Social Services to abide by all provisions of
collective bargaining agreements and adhere to the
laws of the State Procurement Code in contracting of
services for the Alaska Psychiatric Institute.
Due to timing of the Medicaid (Phase One)
presentation, there was insufficient time to review
and propose achievable Medicaid reductions. In an
effort to assist the full Finance Committee, the Co-
Chairs of the standing Health and Social Services
Committee drafted a memo outlining potential UGF
savings that the full Finance Committee could
consider.
2:45:05 PM
Co-Chair Wilson addressed the $30 million transfer between
all appropriations. She stated that Legislative Legal
Services had determined that the transfer was illegal and
was the purview of the legislature's appropriation
authority.
Vice-Chair Johnston interjected that in acknowledgement of
the massive changes the department was going through,she
suggested including the language. She was open to
amendments.
Co-Chair Wilson understood the reasoning but contended that
if it was illegal the committee should not accept the
recommendation.
Co-Chair Wilson referenced page 2 and asked how much
funding was in the Restorative Justice Fund.
KELLY CUNNINGHAM, ANALYST, LEGISLATIVE FINANCE DIVISION,
informed Co-Chair Wilson that the FY 19 carry forward
balance for the Recidivism Reduction Fund was approximately
$833 thousand. The fund change projected a carry forward
amount of $1.6 million in FY 20. She characterized the fund
as "healthy."
Co-Chair Wilson asked where the funds were utilized. Ms.
Cunningham replied that they were used in DOC and possibly
other departments.
Co-Chair Wilson asked what the amount of GF match for
Foster Care Special Needs under the Office of Children's
Services (OCS) was. Ms. Shine responded that the item was a
fund source change that changed from a UGF match of $2.5
million to GF $2.5 million. She deferred to Ms. Cunningham
for details.
Ms. Cunningham explained that LFD had asked the department
to identify all matching funds in its budget. She indicated
that in the prior year, DHSS identified $130 million but
OCS had not reported its matching funds in time. The change
reflected OCS's fund source changes that aligned the GF
match and the UGF appropriately.
2:48:45 PM
Co-Chair Wilson inquired whether the funds were exclusively
match funding or could DHSS expend the funds federal if
funds were not forthcoming. She divulged that she knew the
funds were spent regardless of federal funding. She
appreciated that the matching funds were designated. She
thought it was good to know what federal funding could be
lost with a reduction, but she believed it created a
perception that the funds could only be used as matching
funds. She wondered if there was a way for the legislature
to ensure funds were used only for matching federal dollars
and not to replace federal funds. Ms. Cunningham was unable
to answer the question regarding more expenditure control.
Ms. Shine pointed out that the fund source changes included
a few different fund source changes and not only changing
GF match money.
2:51:09 PM
Co-Chair Wilson appreciated Ms. Shine's explanation. She
reiterated her point about transparency of matching GF.
Co-Chair Wilson referenced page 4, and read the bullet
point:
Replacing $1,500.0 of unsustainable Alcohol and Other
Drug Treatment and Prevention Funds with Recidivism
Reduction Funds for Behavioral Health Treatment and
Recovery Grants;
She asked how much money was in the Recidivism Reduction
Fund and wondered why the funds needed replacing. Ms.
Cunningham shared that the carry-forward balance from the
Alcohol Fund had been declining for some years. Current
appropriations from the fund were approximately $22
million, the revenue was roughly $20 million, the carry
forward balance was $18 million in FY 18 and had steadily
decreased. The appropriation attempted to avoid a decrement
in the future. The alcohol fund was declining, and the
recidivism fund was increasing; hence the reason for the
net zero fund change.
Co-Chair Wilson asked her to identify what funding went
into the Alcohol Fund. Ms. Cunningham recalled that 50
percent of alcohol taxes went into the fund but needed to
verify that there were no other sources for the fund. Co-
Chair Wilson pondered why the funds were declining.
2:54:03 PM
Vice-Chair Ortiz looked at page 3 of the narrative, and
considered the Alaska Pioneer Homes. He asked for a summary
of the impact on current Pioneer Home residents and future
residents. Ms. Shine stated that the items that were
adopted would restructure the funding mechanism within the
department and created a new appropriation to Payment
Assistance, which allowed the division to increase fees.
She emphasized that the transaction did not raise the fees;
the fees were increased in regulation and the department
could invite public comment on the increase. The addition
of $10 million ensured sufficient funding to cover current
and potential residents.
Representative Josephson considered a memo to the members
of the House Finance Committee from the co-chairs of the
House Health and Social Services Committee (copy on file)
[Regarding Medicaid Services appropriation reductions]. He
inquired whether the subcommittee reviewed each item to
determine the beneficiary population would not be impacted
by the cuts.
Vice-Chair Johnston interjected that the subcommittee
lacked the time to examine the cut's impacts. She continued
that the DHSS committee Co-Chairs analyzed the policy and
spoke with committee members regarding their conclusions
and believed they reached an informal consensus regarding
the reductions. The issue would be heard in committee.
Co-Chair Foster handed the gavel to Co-Chair Wilson.
2:57:06 PM
Representative Josephson asked whether the full committee
would hear the justifications for the reductions. Ms. Shine
reminded Representative Josephson that there would be a
presentation regarding the issue the following day. She
noted that the memo was based on information available to
the standing committee Co-Chair's at the time. She
clarified that some concerns might be raised. She
emphasized that the letter was not exhaustive, rather it
reflected a best guess based on the policy Co-Chair's level
of information and time constraints.
Co-Chair Wilson affirmed that the committee would consider
the Medicaid issue with DHSS and hear an analysis of the
reductions by David Teal, Director, Legislative Finance
Division the following day.
Vice-Chair Ortiz cited the budget narrative that indicated
the DHSS recommended budget was a decrease of 1.8 percent.
He asked whether the decrease meant a loss of any federal
matching funds. Ms. Shine was unsure and offered to provide
the information later. Vice-Chair Ortiz asked how the UGF
figures compared to FY 15 levels. Ms. Shine replied that
the UGF budget had been reduced by $138.568.2 million,
which reflected an 11 percent decrease.
3:00:17 PM
Representative Sullivan-Leonard was curious about the
Alaska Psychiatric Institute's (API) budget in comparison
to Wellpath. She wondered what the savings would be
realized with the transition to a partially private
organization. Ms. Shine shared that the subcommittee lacked
the time for a robust conversation on the issue. She
offered that the only actions by the subcommittee
concerning API was intent language and creating a separate
division for API that was currently under the Division of
Behavioral Health. She continued that the funding or budget
for API was not something the subcommittee addressed.
Representative Sullivan-Leonard asked whether the committee
would hold a discussion regarding the issue. Ms. Shine
presumed that it would be beneficial if DHSS wanted to
address the committee.
Vice-Chair Johnston interjected that the department was
working on the matter and would need time.
Representative Josephson referenced Ms. Shine's remark
about the subcommittee not considering API's funding. He
supposed that some discussion took place. Ms. Shine
answered in the negative.
3:02:41 PM
Co-Chair Foster discussed the next meetings agenda.
HB 39 was HEARD and HELD in committee for further
consideration.
HB 40 was HEARD and HELD in committee for further
consideration.
