Concerning transfers of money from the unclaimed property trust fund, and, in connection therewith, transferring money from the unclaimed property trust fund to the housing development grant fund and the general fund in state fiscal year 2025-2026; terminating future transfers from the unclaimed property trust fund to the housing development grant fund and the adult dental fund; and making and reducing appropriations.
Bill Summary:
On June 30, 2026, the state treasurer is required to transfer the following amounts from the unclaimed property trust fund (UPTF):
- $72.8 million to the general fund; and
- $2.2 million to the division of housing to be deposited into the housing development grant fund (grant fund).
On July 1, 2026, the act repeals the statutory provisions that authorize future transfers from the UPTF to the grant fund and to the adult dental fund.
For the 2026-27 state fiscal year, $63,491,322 is appropriated from the general fund to the department of health care policy and financing (HCPF), and an appropriation to HCPF from the adult dental fund is decreased by a corresponding amount. The appropriation takes effect only if the annual general appropriation act for the 2026-27 state fiscal year becomes law.
