Transfer of Overlay to Overlay Surplus
In June of 2011, the Bureau released IGR 11-101 regarding the overlay and proper determination of overlay
surplus. Overlay surplus is an available fund that may be appropriated for any lawful purpose until June 30,
after which it must be closed to the General Fund. The Commissioner of Revenue, through:'the Bureau of
Accounts, may take any of the following actions where the Assessors certify and the Accounting Officer
records an improper transfer amount:
Reduce certified free cash by the excessive transfer;
Treat any appropriation from overlay surplus as an appropriation from free cash;
Require local action to remedy the excessive transfer before approving the tax rate.
The Bureau suggests that this IGR be reviewed by Assessors and Accountants.
Levy Limit Rule Clarification
In its annual levy limit instructions, the Bureau clarified its policy regarding the debt exclusion when unspent
debt proceeds are transferred to another project.
If the project to which the unspent debt excluded proceeds relates has been completed and the proceeds are
transferred into another project applying the provisions of G.L. c. 44, § 20, the debt exclusion must be
proportionately reduced unless:
• the project into which the debt excluded proceeds are transferred into is already debt excluded; or
• the transferred amount is de minimus, i.e, represents less than $.01 on the prior fiscal yea'r's tax rate.
In both cases, the excess proceeds had to result from reasonable, good faith actions on the part of the
Treasurer and other local officials in issuing the debt, i.e. not intended to create available funds for other
spending purposes.
If the project into which the debt excluded proceeds are transferred into is not already debt excluded, a new
debt exclusion vote may request exclusion of the transferred proceeds emphasizing in the vote the original
exclusion and change of purpose.
FY2013 preliminary levy limits for budget planning purposes and instructions are available on the DLS
website. The levy limit calculation is the same as in FY2012 unless otherwise noted in the instructions'
cover letter.
Community Preservation Fund
During FY2012, 147 cities and towns collected the local Community Preservation Act (CPA) surcharge and
are eligible for state matching grants in FY2013. The Division of Local Services (DLS) estimates that the
balance in the state trust fund will be sufficient to provide a first round match of 22% of the surcharge levied
by each city and town. This will trigger an equity and surplus distribution for those cities and towns that
have adopted the maximum 3% surcharge. With these additional distributions, the total state reimbursement
for qualifying cities and towns will increase, depending on their decile and total surcharge amount
(see htto://www.mass.gov/dor/local-officials/municipal-data-and-financial-managementldat_a-bank-
reports/cpa/ for applicable decile). Please note that these estimates are subject to change depending on
Registry of Deeds collections between now and September.

Section 20 Proceeds from sale of bonds; restrictions on use; disposition of premiums
Section 20. The proceeds of any sale of bonds or notes, except premiums and !accrued
interest, shall be used only for the purposes specified in the authorization of the loan, and
may also be used for costs of preparing, issuing and marketing such bonds or notes, except
as otherwise authorized by this section. If a balance remains after the completion of the
project for which the loan was authorized, such balance may at any time be appropriated by
a city, town or district for any purposes for which a loan may be incurred for art !equal or
longer period of time than that for which the original loan, including temporary debt, was
issued. Any such balance not in excess of one thousand dollars may be appropriated for the
payment of the principal of such loan. If a loan has been issued for a specified'',purpose but
the project for which the loan was authorized has not been completed and no, liability
remains outstanding and unpaid on account thereof, a city by a two-thirds vote'of all of the
members of the city council, or a town or district, by a two-thirds vote of the voters present
and voting thereon at an annual town or district meeting, may vote to abandon or discontinue
the project and the unexpended proceeds of the loan may thereupon be appropriated for
any purpose for which a loan may be authorized for an equal or longer period of time than
that for which the original loan, including temporary debt, was issued. Any premium received
upon such bonds or notes, less the cost of preparing, issuing and marketing them, and any
accrued interest received upon the delivery of said bonds or notes shall be paid to the city,
town or district treasury. Notwithstanding the provisions of this section, no appropriation from
a loan or balance thereof shall be made which would increase the amount available from
borrowed money for any purpose to an amount in excess of any limit imposed, by general law
or special act for such purpose. Effective with the fiscal year 2005 tax rate approval process,
additions to the levy limit for a debt exclusion are restricted to the true interest cost incurred
to finance the excluded project. Premiums received at the time of sale shall be offset against
the stated interest cost in computing the debt exclusion. The provisions of the preceding 2
sentences shall not apply to bond premiums received on or before July 31, 2003.
