 1  services, water treatment, and public works for the 2002-2003
 2  fiscal year may be increased in an amount up to the total of
 3  the Governor's vetoes of 2002-2003 appropriations from the
 4  General Revenue Fund.  Such increase may be approved only by
 5  the Legislative Budget Commission pursuant to the request of
 6  the Department of Community Affairs filed with the Executive
 7  Office of the Governor.  The provisions of this subsection are
 8  subject to the notice, review, and objection procedures set
 9  forth in s. 216.177.  Counties and municipalities may apply to
10  the Department of Community Affairs for reimbursement of costs

12  attack.  Reimbursements may be provided for, but are not
13  limited to, specialized training, extended hours of service,

15  proof to the Department of Community Affairs that the costs
16  for which they are seeking reimbursement were not anticipated
17  in their 2002-2003 budgets.  This subsection shall not limit
18  any increases to local government spending authorized by law.
19  This subsection expires July 1, 2003.
