§ 14701 Lottery Revenue Fluctuations

• •Lottery income can go up or down.
• •The state cannot add new money just to replace lost lottery revenue.
• •Budget plans must work with whatever lottery money is actually received.

The state plans to use lottery money to fund a park project. If lottery sales go down one year, the state won't give the park extra cash to cover the shortfall.

Even though the park might need more money because lottery income fell, the law stops the state from putting in extra funds to fill the gap.
