From the transcript
In our minds, the putative $600 million in royalty and tax would become 5— if we did what we'd be allowed to do, that would become $510 million, because it would come from general fund revenue. Is that right? Co-chair Josephson, yes, it would be a potential appropriation from the state. I think we're still working through exactly how we plan to present that in this chart, whether it's a state revenue and then a separate appropriation to the municipalities, or whether we show it as municipal revenue directly. But we will be coming— I anticipate we will be coming before the committee in the near future with a presentation on that bill.
