/117. (GP: Other Funds Carry Forward) Any balance of unexpended earmarked special revenue funds in excess of 90 days operating funds not specifically exempted by law, which shall be determined by the Executive Budget Office, shall be dispensed as follows: (1) Effective on the first pay date that occurs on or after the date the funds become available, the Department of Administration shall allocate to state agencies $25,500,000 to provide for a one-time lump sum bonus. Each state employee, in a full-time equivalent position, who has been in continuous state service since June 2, 2015, is eligible to receive a $900 one-time lump sum payment. This payment is not a part of the state employee's base salary and is not earnable compensation for purposes of employer or employee contributions to respective retirement systems. This appropriation may be used for payments to employees only in the same ratio as the employee's base salary is paid from appropriated sources. The earnings limit in Proviso 117.55 does not apply to this bonus; (2) the remainder shall go to the Department of Transportation for the purpose of road maintenance, rehabilitation, and resurfacing of existing roads. ./
