12306.17. (a) A portion of IHSS costs that are the counties’ responsibility shall be offset using a combination of General Fund moneys appropriated in the annual Budget Act and redirected 1991 Realignment Vehicle License Fee growth revenues pursuant to subdivision (c) of Section 17606.20, as follows:
(1) (A) There is hereby appropriated three hundred sixty-three million nine hundred ninety-eight thousand dollars ($363,998,000) from the General Fund for the 2017–18 fiscal year to offset a portion of IHSS costs incurred by counties. This amount reflects the difference between the combined estimated amounts of 2016–17 and 2017–18 Vehicle License Fee growth revenues that would have been deposited into the Family Support Subaccount of the Vehicle License Fee Account of the Local Revenue Fund pursuant to Section 17600.50 and four hundred million dollars ($400,000,000).
(B) The amount of General Fund moneys appropriated in the 2017–18 fiscal year pursuant to subparagraph (A) shall be increased or decreased by the Department of Finance based on revised 2016–17 and 2017–18 Vehicle License Fee growth revenue estimates included in the 2018–19 Governor’s Budget and subsequent May Revision, such that the total offset equals four hundred million dollars ($400,000,000).
(C) The amount of General Fund moneys appropriated in the 2017–18 fiscal year for the In-Home Supportive Services program pursuant to subparagraphs (A) and (B) shall be available for encumbrance or expenditure until June 30, 2018.
(2) For the 2018–19 fiscal year, the amount of the General Fund offset provided shall be the difference between the amount of 2018–19 Vehicle License Fee growth revenues that would have been deposited into the Family Support Subaccount of the Vehicle License Fee Account of the Local Revenue Fund pursuant to Section 17600.50 and three hundred thirty million dollars ($330,000,000).
(b) The Department of Finance shall consult with the California State Association of Counties to determine the distribution of General Fund moneys available for offset of each county’s IHSS costs in each fiscal year as specified in subdivision (a).
