I. Executive Summary

The New York State budget is the definitive statement of the state’s fiscal priorities. Unfortunately, there are elements of the budget that are inscrutable, decided behind closed doors by a handful of political leaders, and beyond the reach of the public. In particular, large, unspecific pots of state funds are put into the budget legislation year after year in which decisions about spending purposes and recipients are deferred and go undisclosed. These ‘lump sum funds’ have grave consequences for transparency and present a risk for corruption.

For the purposes of this report, lump sums funds are defined as pots of funding that are authorized to be spent through the Capital Budget and Aid to Localities Budget which are not sufficiently itemized, lacking a detailed break-down of where the funds will be spent, and are spent at the discretion of one or more of the following state elected officials: the Governor, any or all Senators (typically the Temporary President or Majority Leader), any or all Assembly Members (typically the Speaker), and the Attorney General. For more information, see the Methodology described in Section IV.

Citizens Union has long highlighted the shortcomings of the state’s budget process, and their implications for accountability to the public. Most recently in September 2013, we published a report, Spending in the Shadows: Discretionary Funding in the NYS Budget, which analyzed lump sum funds and for fiscal year (FY) 2014. This report extends previous analysis on lump sum funds to include a three-year period: FY 2014, FY 2015, and the current proposed FY 2016 budget.


This report’s major findings include:

1. The proposed FY 2016 Executive Budget contains $2.6 billion in lump sum funds, through 66 separate pots. The Assembly has proposed adding 12 pots totalling $53 million more; the Senate proposes adding $83 million more in 21 additional pots, of which $10.6 million is for new pots.

2. The Governor, Assembly and Senate each have considerable amounts of lump sum funds available for their use in the FY 2016 Executive Budget: $2.4 billion for the Governor; $902 million for the Senate; and $765 million for the Assembly.

3. While the Governor proposed reforms to increase transparency and accountability of some lump sum funds, these reforms do not go far enough. Only 12 of the 66 pots are covered, covering $821 million, missing many legislative pots, and excluding all executive pots. Citizen Union proposes comprehensive transparency and accountability for all lump sum funds in the state budget.

Risk of Corruption

While the state budget provides important funding to ensure our state continues to provide needed services to the public, it has also provided an unfortunate opportunity for corruption. Since 2000, 28 New York state legislators have left office due to ethical or criminal issues, and 8 of these individuals were embroiled in scandals involving state funding (See Appendix A for the full listing). Statewide officials have also not been immune to corruption scandals.

One case is currently pending: former Speaker Sheldon Silver has been charged with personally directing $500,000 in grants from a lump sum fund to a prominent doctor, who began referring his patients to a law firm that, in turn, paid referral fees to Silver.

Former Senate Majority Leader Malcolm Smith was convicted in February 2015 of conspiracy in a scheme to funnel $500,000 from lump sum funds known as “multi-modal” transportation funds to a developer who, in turn, would provide funds to bribe Republican officials.

These incidents show that the risk of corruption continues as long as decision-making on lump sum pots of funding continues to take place in the shadows.

Current Budget Proposals – FY 2016 and Reform As the budget process unfolds this year for the 2016 fiscal year, it is clear that lump sum funds will continue, providing the ability for elected officials to steer considerable sums of funding after the adoption of budget legislation. The major findings regarding the proposed budget are below.

The Governor’s Executive Budget for FY 2016 includes authorizations for as much as $2.6 billion to be spent this year through 66 lump sum pots of funds.

o Most funds are contained in the Capital budget bill, with $2.5 billion. Most of this is due to the competitive NY-SUNY 2020 challenge grant, totalling $1.3 billion. $95 million in expense funds in total are authorized through the Aid to Localities bill.


The following elected officials have at least partial discretion over the following amounts:

o Governor: $2.4 billion o Senate: $902 million o Assembly: $765 million o Attorney General: $81.5 million

While some funds are distributed through a partially competitive process (57.6% or $1.5 billion, largely due to the size of SUNY grants), a large portion are distributed via Memoranda of Understanding (MoUs) that are not public (29.5% or $778 million), or other mechanisms (12.9% or $340 million) that provide considerable discretion to elected officials.

The Senate and Assembly have both proposed in their budget resolutions reappropriating previous lump sum pots in the FY16 Aid to Localities Budget:

o $72 million in the Senate’s proposal (13 more pots beyond those proposed by the Governor); and

o $53 million in the Assembly’s proposal (12 more pots beyond those proposed by the Governor; all 12 have also been proposed by the Senate among their 13).

The Senate also proposes adding 8 new pots of funding, totalling $10.6 million more; all the Senate’s additions would total $83 million, including reappropriated and new pots.

One promising spot in the budget is Governor Cuomo’s inclusion of reform language to provide some level of transparency to legislative lump sums. Specifically, he proposes that legislators must:

Submit a declaration that the contract or grant will be used for lawful, public purposes and that he/she has no financial interest or other conflict of interest; and

File a new, more detailed financial disclosure form with the Joint Commission on Public Ethics (JCOPE).

The Assembly or Senate must then post these documents online.

The Governor’s proposal does not cover any executive lump sum funds, nor does it apply to all legislative pots in the proposed budget tracked by Citizens Union; the reform language was only added to 12 of the 66 lump sums, all of which were exclusively legislative pots. The Assembly and Senate budget proposals did not include the Governor’s proposed reforms.

Trends from FY 2014 – FY 2016

Citizens Union’s analysis from the budgets covering FY 2014 – FY 2016 has shown that while some new lump sum pots have been added, funds are gradually declining, perhaps reflecting increased scrutiny. Specifically:

The total authorization has fallen from just under $4 billion in FY14, to $3.8 billion in FY15, and $2.6 billion proposed in the FY16 Executive Budget. This may increase as the final budget is being negotiated, however.


o The Capital authorization has fallen every year, while there was a spike in the Aid to

Localities authorization in FY15 due to the addition several new pots, mainly mortgage settlement funds for the Attorney General and under the Division of Housing and Community Renewal totalling $393 million.

While no new lump sums have been proposed for FY 2016 in the Executive Budget, new pots were ultimately created in both FY 2014 and FY 2015, and the Senate is proposing new funds for FY 2016.

o In FY 2014, new funding for lump sums totalled about $202 million; o In FY 2015, new funding totalled $668 million, largely due to new pots created from the

windfall from mortgage settlements. o In FY 2016, the Senate proposes $10.6 million in new funding.

The mortgage settlement funds also created a different balance of funds between elected

officials in FY 2015, with the Attorney General newly having a single pot of funds ($81.5 million) to distribute, in FY 2015 (which is proposed to continue in FY 2016).

o The Senate and Assembly also were given a new large pot of funds to distribute as a result of the mortgage settlement funds at $312 million in FY 2015.

It should also be noted that though funds appear to be decreasing as old pots are being spent faster than new pots are created, Citizens Union’s analysis includes only certain lump sums that identify elected officials as responsible for their distribution. It is possible that new funds have been created that are not captured in our analysis due to vague language in the budget.

Citizens Union Reform Recommendations Citizens Union recommends that lawmakers ensure full disclosure and accountability of all lump sum funds in the state budget this year to:

1. Eliminate Conflicts of Interest and Ensure Proper Public Use 2. Require Comprehensive, Online Disclosure of All Lump Sums Grants and Contracts 3. Apply Reforms to All Lump Sums in the Budget, Including the Governor’s

A detailed listing of our recommendations is available in Section IX.

III. Introduction

The New York State budget is the definitive statement of the state’s fiscal priorities. Through a set of budget bills that are passed prior to the end of the fiscal year on March 31st1, the Governor proposes and the legislature authorizes the revenue-generating and spending programs of the state. It is arguably the most important function of the state legislature, which devotes a significant portion of its session to budget deliberations. Given its political importance to communities across the state, the budget is no stranger to scrutiny and criticism. The executive and legislative branches continuously vie for influence on the budget and budget process. This much we would expect and welcome in a democratic society.

Unfortunately there are elements of the budget that are inscrutable, decided behind closed doors by a handful of political leaders, and beyond the reach of the public. In particular, large, unspecific pots of state funds are put into the budget legislation year after year, in which decisions about spending purposes and recipients are deferred and go undisclosed. These ‘lump sum funds’ have grave consequences for transparency and present a risk for corruption, as will be described in greater detail later in this report.

Citizens Union has long highlighted the shortcomings of the state’s budget process, and their implications on accountability of the process to the public. We responded to reforms enacted in 2007 in a comprehensive Issue Brief and Position Statement on Budget Reform in 2008, and followed up with report cards in 2009 and 2012.2 In these reports, we noted that despite reforms, ‘lump sum funds’ continued to exist in the Capital and Aid to Localities Budgets. More recently in September 2013, we published a report, Spending in the Shadows: Discretionary Funding in the NYS Budget3, which analyzed lump sum funds and member items in the Enacted Budget for fiscal year (FY) 20144.

1 While the end of the fiscal year on March 31st creates a natural deadline, given that funding is no longer available beyond that date, the governor and legislature have not always agreed on a final budget by that date. 2 The Issue Brief and Position Statement (2008) is available at: http://www.citizensunion.org/www/cu/site/hosting/issuebriefs/2008ib_statebudgetreform.pdf The 2009 report card is available at: http://www.citizensunion.org/www/cu/site/hosting/IssueBriefs/CU%20Budget%20Reform%20Report%20Card%20November%202009.pdf The 2012 report card is available at: http://www.citizensunion.org/www/cu/site/hosting/Reports/CU_BudgetReformReportCard_April2012.pdf 3 “Spending in the Shadows” (2013) is available at: http://www.citizensunion.org/www/cu/site/hosting/Reports/CU_SpendingintheShadows_DiscretionaryFundsinNYS_September_2013.pdf 4 FY 2014 ran from April 1st, 2013 through March 31st, 2014. The FY 2014 budget was enacted in late March 2013.

Spending in the Shadows: FY 2014 – 2016 Update Page 6

This report extends previous analysis on lump sum funds to include the FY 2015 Enacted Budget and the

FY 2016 Executive Budget5 proposed by the Governor on January 21, 2015, and as updated through the

Governor’s 30-Day amendments. We include an inventory of lump sum funds in this latest executive

budget, and present trends over these three budgets. We also examined proposals put forward in mid-

March by the State Senate and State Assembly in their budget resolutions, which reflect the priorities of

the legislature as negotiations are currently underway. By tracking the continued presence and state of

these funds, we show how spending that occurs outside the public eye presents not only a lack of

transparency, but also a corruption risk that recent events have shown to be a reality rather than just a

possibility.

IV. Methodology

In this report, ‘lump sum funds’ are defined as follows:

Pots of funding that are authorized in the New York State budget, specifically in the legislation

enacted for the Capital Budget and Aid to Localities Budget, which are:

o Appropriations, which are new pots of funds introduced for the first time in a given

year; or

o Reappropriations, which are carry-over funds from past years that are being authorized

to be spent again. These pots generally decrease slowly over time, as reappropriations

can only total as much funding as is left in the pot, unless lawmakers amend the

amounts to increase or decrease them.

Pots that are insufficiently itemized: they lack a detailed break-down of where the funds will be

spent such as by non-profit, locality, agency or specific project, often lacking a detailed

explanation for the purpose of the funds; and

The discretion of distributing the funds is subject at least in part subject to the following state

elected officials: the Governor, any or all Senators (typically the Temporary President or

Majority Leader), any or all Assembly Members (typically the Speaker), and the Attorney

General. The State Comptroller has not historically distributed such funds.

A full list of the lump sum funds identified by Citizens Union for this report is available in Appendix B.

By leaving out critical spending details from the state budget legislation, decisions are deferred until

after the state budget is passed and largely absent from public disclosure. This is significant, as there is

considerably more scrutiny from the press, advocacy organizations, and other stakeholders as the

budget is being debated.

5 The Executive Budget is the budget proposed by the Governor in January. It is subject to amendments by the

legislature and Governor and may differ substantially from the Enacted Budget passed in March.


This definition captures budget pots that are insufficiently transparent and pose a corruption risk. However, as will be discussed below, spending procedures for some lump sums are more transparent than others. We also recognize that in some cases deferring a spending decision provides flexibility, which can give rise to good policy if coupled with better transparency.

To be clear, this definition may not comprehensively capture all funds that are potentially problematic and could be considered lump sums. It does not include unitemized funds that do not even specify how spending decisions are to be made. For instance, beginning in 2008, two sums of $350 million were appropriated for the Urban Development Corporation’s Capital Assistance and Economic Development Assistance Programs. The appropriations do not state how funds will be spent, and do not even state how such a decision will be arrived at.6 These funds are arguably even less transparent than those included in the inventory; however, Citizens Union lacked the information to attribute discretion to a particular elected official, so did not include them in this analysis. Second, it does not include funds at the discretion of appointees of elected officials, e.g. the Director of the Division of the Budget. The focus of this report is on the discretion of elected officials over lump sum funds.

In some cases, a particular sub-listing qualifies as a lump sum fund, while other parts of that pot provide more detailed itemization and are not included. The initial appropriation for each sub-listing is reported, but subsequent reappropriations are only listed in aggregate. Therefore, in this report, authorized lump sums for a given fiscal year exclude sub-listings as we do not know the percentage of funds that are still able to be spent.

After reporting the aggregate amounts, Citizens Union breaks these down:

By the state agencies for which funds are spent through (note that funds appear under individual agencies in the state budget’s appropriations bills);

By the elected officials who have approval authority over spending (Governor, Senators, Assembly Members, and Attorney General); and

By spending procedure.

We categorize spending procedures as follows:

1. Competitive: some funds are allocated via a competitive process, with elected officials choosing between spending proposals based on stated criteria;

2. Resolution: the list of recipients must be passed by Senate or Assembly resolution, which triggers a vote of all members;

3. Memorandum of understanding (MoU): spending details are in a legal agreement typically involving one or more of the following parties: the Governor, the Temporary President or Majority Leader of the Senate, and the Speaker of the Assembly;

6 FY16 Executive Capital Budget, p. 705 line 30 and p. 706 line 12; available at: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S2004-2015



4. Consultation: a state agency or official develops a spending plan “in consultation” with an elected official;

5. Unilateral authority: a single elected official has discretion; and

6. Unclear: budget language does not clearly specify how funds are to be spent.

V. Lump Sum Funds and the Risk of Corruption

Public corruption continues to plague Albany, and the budget process is, unfortunately, especially prone

to corruption. As Citizens Union’s Corruption Tracker shows, since 2000, 28 New York state legislators have left office due to ethical or criminal issues. That number is set to rise to 32, as four additional

legislators have been indicted and still hold their seats.7 Statewide officials are also not immune to

public corruption, as was seen in the pay-to-play scandal with former State Comptroller Alan Hevesi.

With every new case, good government groups like Citizens Union, elected officials and others propose

reforms that seek to prevent future corruption. One fruitful approach focuses on restrictions to or

disclosure requirements for outside income. But as Citizens Union has noted in the past, we should also

scrutinize some common avenues of corruption directly at the source, including lump sum funds.

The arrest of Sheldon Silver in January 2015 is only the most recent demonstration of the corruption risk

posed by lump sum funding.8 The federal complaint charges that Silver personally directed $500,000 in

grants from a lump sum fund to a prominent doctor, who began referring his patients to a law firm that,

in turn, paid referral fees to Silver. The fund involved was established under the Health Care Reform

Act, and until 2007 when it was removed from the budget, held millions of dollars be disbursed at the

discretion of the Speaker of the Assembly, as well as the Temporary President of the Senate.9

The conviction of former Senate Majority Leader Malcolm Smith in February 2015 provides another

example. Smith was convicted of conspiracy to bribe party officials to gain access to the Republican

ballot line for Mayor of New York City. Among other things, Smith offered to funnel $500,000 from lump

sum funds known as “multi-modal” transportation funds to a developer who, in turn, would provide

funds to bribe Republican officials. As captured on tape during the federal investigation, Smith

explained to federal undercover operatives, “Multi-modal money is outside the budget and it’s always around.”10

ballot.html


Multi-modal transportation funds are classic examples of lump sum funding, and they are still part of the

New York State budget. Of the $500 million total in multi-modal funds appropriated in 2000, 2005, and

2006, the FY16 Executive Budget reappropriates11 $250 million, implying that $250 million has been

spent in 15 years, with $22 million spent in the two years since April 2013 alone. Reappropriations can

only total as much funding as is left in the pot, unless lawmakers amend the amounts, so therefore

these amounts generally reflect the total amount of funding that is left. Decisions about which projects

will be funded, who will be recipients of grant or contract revenues, the timing of pay-outs, and other

terms, are governed by memoranda of understanding (MoUs) or other types of agreements between

elected officials, which typically involve the governor, the temporary president of the senate, and the

speaker of the assembly. The public has no access to these documents, which are used for several other

pots of funds in the budget, not only multi-modal transportation funds. Because the documents spelling

out how these funds are to be spent are hidden from public view, there is almost no way to hold elected

officials accountable, increasing both the corruption risk and the risk of waste. All that the public can

readily determine with respect to the multi-modal funds is that it is likely that $250 million has already

been spent and $250 million is still available.

A full list of legislators who have been involved in scandals related to misusing state funds is available in

Appendix A, which details 7 other legislators who have been embroiled in scandals involving the misuse

of state funding.

VI. Proposed Reforms in FY 2016 Executive Budget

Following the arrest of Sheldon Silver, Governor Andrew Cuomo proposed a slew of ethics reforms in his

FY16 Budget, including a requirement that for 12 legislative lump sum funds in the Aid to Localities and

Capital Budgets that legislative sponsors, i.e. legislators who requesting pay-outs from the pots, must:

1213

Submit a declaration that the contract or grant will be used for lawful, public purposes and that

he/she has no financial interest or other conflict of interest related to the request to the

Director of the Division of the Budget

File a financial disclosure form with the Joint Commission on Public Ethics (JCOPE) specifying

the amounts, clients, and services provided for outside income (note that the requirements for

this form are newly expanded in other portions of the budget).

11 If funds appropriated in previous years are not fully spent, the remaining amount may (but need not) be reappropriated, i.e. reauthorized for this FY. 12 Gonan, Yoav. “Cuomo attaches ethics reform laws to state budget voting.” New York Post. February 20, 2015. Available at: http://nypost.com/2015/02/20/cuomo-attaches-ethics-reform-laws-to-state-budget-voting/ 13 The Governor’s 30-day amendments to the FY16 Aid to Localities and Capital Budgets are available here: https://www.budget.ny.gov/pubs/executive/eBudget1516/30day/ATLStrikeInsert.pdf https://www.budget.ny.gov/pubs/executive/eBudget1516/30day/CAPStrikeInsert.pdf



The Assembly or Senate must then post the proposal, including amounts, recipients, sponsors, the

administering agency or authority, and the above declarations, on its public-facing website for at least

30 days.

The Governor’s proposals on lump sum funds match Citizen Union’s 2013 recommendations in part, and

represent a step in the right direction. However, their scope is incomplete in several ways. First, the

Governor’s proposals apply to only 12 of the 66 lump sum funds authorized in the FY16 Executive

Budget, or $821 million of the $2.6 billion authorized. For completeness they should apply to all lump

sum funds, as listed in Appendix B.

Second, the proposals are limited to only some of the legislative pots, even though in many cases the

Governor has discretion over how lump sum funds are spent; none of the pots where the executive has

discretion over funds were covered. This asymmetry has often been a feature of ethics reforms in

Albany. For instance, the 2007 Budget Reform Act barred the legislature from proposing new lump sum

funds unless they are itemized in a resolution. For instance, the 2007 Budget Reform Act barred the

legislature from proposing new lump sum funds unless they are later itemized in a resolution.14

The

Governor, however, can still create lump sum funds, and some $2.6 billion in existing lump sum funds

are up for reappropriation in the FY16 Exec Budget.

Finally, the Governor’s proposals do not fully enact Citizens Union’s recommendations. While each spending proposal must be disclosed, MoUs and other documents detailing discretion and spending in aggregate remain secret. Moreover, there are no time limits on the reappropriation of lump sum funds.

Despite the Governor’s proposals, lump sum funds continue to pose a threat to transparency and

increase the risk of corruption, and further reforms are necessary. Citizens Union’s recommendations to

expand upon the Governor’s proposals are therefore detailed at the end of this report.

14

State Finance Law, §24:

5. Any appropriation added pursuant to section four of article seven of the constitution without designating a

grantee shall be allocated only pursuant to a plan setting forth an itemized list of grantees with the amount to be

received by each, or the methodology for allocating such appropriation. Such plan shall be subject to the approval

of the chair of the senate finance committee, the chair of the assembly ways and means committee, and the

director of the budget, and thereafter shall be included in a concurrent resolution calling for the expenditure of

such monies, which resolution must be approved by a majority vote of all members elected to each house upon a

roll call vote.


VII. Lump Sum Funds in the FY 2016 Executive and Proposed Legislative Budgets

Citizens Union examined lump sum funds in the FY16 Exec Budget15, finding over $2.6 billion in proposed authorizations for lump sums, in 66 separate pots: 19 Aid to Localities pots, and 47 Capital pots. While not all these funds – which are all reappropriations – will actually be spent down in FY16, for scale, the Division of the Budget projects that total capital spending in FY16 will be $10.9 billion.16

Table 1 below shows initial appropriations and proposed authorizations for FY16, in the Aid to Localities and Capital Budgets. The initial appropriation is the amount in the fund when first created, which can then be reappropriated over successive budgets. The oldest lump sum still proposed to be reappropriated for FY16 was initially appropriated in 1997, when $423.5 million was first set aside for the community enhancement facilities assistance program. The FY16 Executive Capital Budget proposes reappropriating about $51.5 million for this item. While initial appropriations for all pots totalled $9.6 billion, the Governor proposes that $2.6 billion of this be authorized for FY16.

Table 1: Lump sum funds in the FY16 Executive Budget

budgets)

Number of Pots

Aid to Localities $117,259,234 $96,338,134 19

Capital $9,472,286,000 $2,540,816,000 47

TOTAL $9,589,545,234 $2,637,154,134 66

This total sum can be broken down by the state agencies for which funds were proposed to be authorized, by the elected officials who had approval authority over spending, and finally by spending procedure.

By Agency

As noted previously, the state budget appropriations bills detail spending by agency, and lump sums will appear as a part of a particular agency’s budget.

15 The FY16 Exec Aid to Localities Budget is available at: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S2003-2015 The FY16 Exec Capital Budget is available at: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S2004-2015 16 The FY16 Exec Budget Capital Program and Financing Plan is available at: http://publications.budget.ny.gov/eBudget1516/capitalPlan/CapPlan.pdf


As Figure 1 below shows, the bulk of lump sum funds proposed to be authorized are in the Capital

Budget (96.3%), and the bulk of this – 50.4% – goes to the State University of New York (SUNY). All of

this $1.28 billion in proposed spending is part of the NY-SUNY 2020 challenge grant program. The 2020

challenge grant program involves different campuses making detailed proposals competitively to the

Governor and Chancellor of SUNY. They then decide which proposals gain funding based on fulfilment of

criteria such as partnerships with local governments and businesses, funding mechanisms, and details

for expansion.17 It should be noted, however, that the construction work is done through private

contractors, presenting a potential corruption risk.

For the second biggest category, 21.7% of all proposed authorized lump sums are ‘Miscellaneous’, and not administered by a specific state agency or public authority. Without an administering agency, funds

are even more difficult to track.

By Approving Authority

As Figure 2 below shows, the Governor has at least partial authority over 91.3% of the lump sum funds

proposed to be authorized, followed by 34.2% for Senators, 29.0% for Assembly Members, and 3.1% for

the Attorney General. Even if we were to exclude the $1.28 billion SUNY grant program, the Governor

would still have overwhelming authority over lump sum funds. The disparity between the Governor and

the State Legislature perhaps reflects the 2007 budget reforms, which as discussed earlier restricted the

legislature, but not the Governor, from proposing new lump sums except if detailed via resolution.

The Attorney General’s $81.5 million reflects a single item resulting from a settlement with J.P. Morgan over mortgage securities, and is to be spent on alleviating the impacts of foreclosures, pursuant to a

plan developed by the Attorney General. Although none of this fund has yet been spent since created in

FY15, the Attorney General is not legally obligated to disclose spending details under the budget

authorization language.

By Spending Procedure

While lump sum funds in general raise issues of transparency and present a corruption risk, there are

different procedures for distribution that provide various levels of transparency and accountability. For

instance, the previously mentioned the NY-SUNY 2020 challenge grant program involves different

campuses making detailed proposals competitively to the Governor and Chancellor of SUNY, as

described earlier. In other cases, especially for funding to the Division of Criminal Justice Services and

the Education Department, itemization is done by Senate or Assembly resolution after the budget cycle,

typically prior to the end of the session in late June.18 In these cases itemization is still decided outside

the adoption of budget legislation by elected officials, reducing the scrutiny these expenditures might

otherwise face. Recipients must be publicly disclosed, though the sponsoring legislator is unknown. At worst, MoUs need not be publicly accessible.

Accordingly, Figure 3 on the following page classifies reappropriated lump sum funds by different spending procedures (for more information, see the Methodology in Section IV):

1. Competitive: 60% of proposed Capital lump sums, consisting of the 2020 challenge grants mentioned earlier, for SUNY and CUNY;

2. Resolution: 8% of proposed Aid to Localities lump sums and 5% of proposed Capital lump sums, especially prevalent in the Aid to Localities Budget under the Division of Criminal Justice Services;

3. MoU: 30% of proposed Capital lump sums, for projects ranging from economic development to transportation;

4. Consultation: 1% of proposed Aid to Localities lump sums; 5. Unilateral authority: 85% of proposed Aid to Localities lump sums – the only item is the Attorney

General’s $81.5 million settlement discussed earlier; and 6. Unclear: 1% of proposed Aid to Localities and 5% of proposed Capital lump sums.


Updates from FY 2016 Legislative Proposals In response to the Governor’s Executive Budget and 30-Day Amendments, the Assembly and Senate proposed separate versions of budget bills, including the Aid to Localities and Capital Budgets on March 9 and 10, 2015.19 No changes were made to the FY16 Executive Capital Budget. 19 The FY16 Assembly Aid to Localities Budget is available at: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/A6003-2015 The FY16 Senate Aid to Localities Budget is available at: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S4203-2015 The FY16 Assembly Capital Budget is available at: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/A6004-2015 The FY16 Senate Capital Budget is available at: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S4204-2015

Competitive Resolution MOU Consultation Unilateral Unclear



In the Aid to Localities proposals, many lump sum pots from past fiscal years that were absent from the

FY16 Executive Budget were reflected. These additions increased the lump sums proposed to be

authorized in the FY16 Aid to Localities Budget by $72 million in the Senate’s proposal (13 additional pots), and $53 million in the Assembly’s proposal (12 additional pots). All of the Assembly’s pots were

also picked up by the Senate, meaning that there appears to be a legislative agreement to add back in at

least $53 million of previous years’ lump sums.

The Assembly did not propose any new lump sums; however the Senate’s Aid to Localities proposal also

added 8 new lump sums, totalling $10,620,000:

5 lump sums (totalling $6,670,000) were added to the Division of Criminal Justice Services, all to

be spent by Senate resolution. Most of these pots appear to be yearly additions to the Enacted

Budget.20

3 lump sums were added to the Department of Health:

o $3 million for “a rape prevention and education program in underserved areas” to be spent by Senate resolution, and

o Two pots totalling $950,000 for “the recommendations of the Senate task force on Lyme and Tick Borne diseases” – with no spending procedure specified.

The Governor’s lump sum disclosure requirements, as referenced in Section IV, added as part of his 30-

Day Amendments, were absent from all legislative proposals. This reflects the legislature’s broader disagreements with the Governor about the details of ethics reform and possibly the inclusion of these

reforms in the appropriations bills, and suggests the disclosure requirements will be a subject in budget

negotiations.

The Senate’s Aid to Localities proposal also included authorizations from the Community Projects Fund,

a pot historically used for member items and lump sums, housed under the Urban Development

Corporation, totalling $18 million in reappropriations that are still being spent down, with the oldest

item dating back to 1999. Nearly $16 million of this is unitemized, and no lump sum item specified any

elected officials responsible for steering funds, why it is not included in the tally above. The Governor’s FY16 Financial Plan reports that the Community Projects Fund has a current balance of $87 million, so it

possible that more items from the Community Projects Fund could be added back to the budget for the

final enacted version.21

20

An additional item appears in the Senate proposal that appears to be a duplicate totalling $650,000, also under the Division of Criminal Justice Services. Citizens Union did not include this item in our tally. It should be noted that occasionally pots such as these are vetoed by the Governor, provided they are duplicates. 21

The FY16 Financial Plan is available here: https://www.budget.ny.gov/pubs/executive/eBudget1516/financialPlan/FinPlanUpdated.pdf



VIII. Trends in Lump Sum Funds, FYs 2014-16

In its 2013 report Spending in the Shadows, Citizens Union examined lump sum funds in FY14. The

following section extends that analysis to present trends over the three budgets to date. Comparisons

between fiscal years22

can show changes in the aggregate lump sums and their composition, and which

individual funds have been spent down or created.

Authorizations have fallen from year to year – in other words, existing lump sums are being spent down

faster than new funds are added. This is a double-edged sword: the relative lack of new funds should be

welcomed given the lack of transparency of lump sum funds generally. In particular, the FY16 Exec

Budget proposes no new lump sum funds. However, the continued spending of lump sum funds is still

cause for concern, as elected leaders still retain substantial authority over state spending outside of the

regular budget process, without significant public scrutiny.

While the budget process in New York State is largely executive-driven, legislators can authorize

discretionary funding, and this may afford them a potentially important role in the budget process.

Some might argue that legislators as local representatives are closer to the needs of their constituent

than a statewide elected official, i.e. the Governor. However, given past abuses and the risk of

corruption, the distribution process should be reformed to ensure that there is sufficient transparency

and vetting.

As Figure 4 on the following page shows, the total authorization has fallen from just under $4 billion in

FY1423

, to $3.8 billion in FY15, and $2.6 billion proposed in the FY16 Executive Budget. The Capital

authorization has fallen every year, while there was a spike in the Aid to Localities authorization in FY15

due to the addition several new pots, mainly mortgage settlement funds for the Attorney General and

under the Division of Housing and Community Renewal totalling $393 million.

The sharp total decline to FY16 should be taken with the caveat that we examined the proposed

Executive, not Enacted, Budget. Based on trends from previous fiscal years, some lump sum funds

missing from the Executive Aid to Localities Budget then appear in the Enacted Budget. In particular

reappropriations to the Community Projects Fund ($254 million in FY15) are not entered in the FY16

Exec Budget.

The FY15 Capital Budget is available here: http://open.nysenate.gov/legislation/bill/S6354E-2013 23

These amounts for FY14 differ from our previous report, “Spending in the Shadows,” due to some inclusions and exclusions for consistency with our definition of lump sum spending across fiscal years.


New Pots

New lump sums in the FY14 and FY15 Budgets are listed in Tables 2 and 3 on the following page. As mentioned previously there were no new pots matching Citizens Union’s criteria in the FY16 Executive Budget.

With the exception of the two mortgage settlement funds, all new pots in FY14 and FY15 have been either competitive grants or subject to Senate resolution. For FY14 new pots, only $2 million from the Division of Criminal Justice Services funds have been spent down so far. For FY15 new pots, $29,000 from the Division of Criminal Justice Services funds has been spent down, while $42 million in school district and library grants and $312 million in mortgage settlement funds were not authorized in FY16. This might indicate that they have been spent down, or otherwise amended in some way.

By Agency

Figure 5 on the following page shows changes in authorizations by state agency. The key changes are: the addition of mortgage settlements (under the Division of Housing and Department of Law) in FY15, the addition of CUNY capital funds in FY15, and the gradual drawing down of SUNY capital funds. Some pots may be added or modified for the FY16 Enacted Budget. In both the Aid to Localities and Capital Budgets, authorizations that were “miscellaneous” and not designated to a particular agency declined: by almost $220 million during FY14 for Capital, driven by a $175 million drop in a Regional Development fund, and by $258 million during FY15 for Aid to Localities, as the Community Projects Fund ($254 million in FY15) was dropped.

FY14 Authorization FY15 Authorization FY16 Authorization




By Approving Authority

Authorizations by approving authority have fluctuated over time, as Figure 6 below shows. The

Governor’s portion of funds dropped substantially between FY14 and FY15, from 91.4% to 77.3%,

though has increased again in the proposed Executive Budget for FY16, with corresponding rises for the

legislature. It should be noted, however, that in some cases the governor shares approval authority with

the legislature, so he does not have sole discretion over all the pots he has approval authority over. The

same is true for the legislature.

The decrease in the governor’s share of approval authority is largely driven by the $312 million

mortgage settlement fund, which is governed by an MoU between the Director of the Budget, the

Speaker of the Assembly, and the Temporary President of the Senate. In our inventory, as mentioned

earlier, we do not include this in the Governor’s category given that he is not directly responsible for the MoU, but rather an agency head. There is then a $312 million boost to the influence of the legislature in

FY15. The Attorney General’s mortgage settlement fund of $81.5 million from FY15 onwards is also

clearly visible.

These trend findings collectively show that a few new lump sum funds have been created since FY14.

More must be done to increase the transparency of two mortgage settlement funds, one at the Division

of Housing under the legislature’s influence ($312 million), and another at the Department of Law under

the Attorney General ($81.5 million). Despite the inclusion of these two new funds, authorizations overall have decreased because existing funds are being spent down. We should still exercise caution, however, especially where large amounts are spent from opaque funds, such as Economic Development funds during FY14. While the relative lack of new funds is promising, it is not enough to curb new lump sum funds while existing ones still have substantial amounts reappropriated that lack transparency. In this regard, the Governor’s FY16 30-Day amendment proposals are still inadequate to address the corruption risk in lump sum funds as they do not apply to all approving authorities and all pots of funding (as listed in Appendix B). New York State needs comprehensive reform to lump sum funds.

IX. Citizens Union Recommendations

In our September 2013 report Spending in the Shadows, Citizens Union recommended measures to improve the transparency of lump sum funds. Given the Governor’s proposals, we reiterate and add to those recommendations below.

1. Support the governor’s proposal to require an affirmation from legislators who seek to make

awards from lump sum appropriations that the contract or grant is for a lawful, public purpose, that the lawmaker has not and will not receive any financial benefit, and that there are no conflicts of interest, and that the legislator is in compliance with all financial disclosure requirements in the public officers law.

2. Expand the governor’s proposal to apply to all state elected officials involved in determining grants, including the governor; and all lump sum funds authorized in the budget. It appears that 15 lump sum pots in the proposed FY 2016 were covered by the new requirements. Citizens Union has identified at least 66 pots in the current budget, 12 of which were covered by the requirements (note: 3 additional pots were covered that were not initially found by Citizens Union, as they do not identify an elected official as responsible for their distribution). This should be further codified in state finance law to ensure application to all future lump sum pots.

3. All grants and contracts expended under lump sum funds should receive comprehensive, online disclosure. The disclosure should be in a user-friendly format permitting independent analysis and should include all MoUs, plans, resolutions and other agreements, funds distributed and the identity of recipients, and the amount of funds that remain.

4. Lump-‐sum appropriations should disclose in the state budget the detailed purposes and criteria set forth for their distribution.

5. For lump sum funds distributed via assembly or senate resolution, resolutions should age for 3 days and identify the legislative sponsor.

6. There should be a time limit for the reappropriation of lump-‐sums to decrease slush funds and the use of such funds as “one-‐shot” budget gap fillers.
