Amend CSHB 1 (house committee printing) as follows:

(1)  In Article IX General Provisions, under Part 17, Miscellaneous Provisions, add the following rider:

____.  Appropriation of Unexpended Balances for Local Property Tax Relief. At the conclusion of each fiscal year the Comptroller of Public Accounts shall identify any unexpended balances in general revenue that have not otherwise been encumbered or obligated, or where authority for their use has been provided elsewhere in this Act, and deposit those amounts in Foundation School Fund No. 193 for the purpose of providing local property tax relief. Those amounts are appropriated contingent on enactment of HB 3, or similar legislation that enables the compression of local maintenance and operations (M&O) property tax collections, and are in addition to amounts appropriated elsewhere for the same purpose.
