Sec. 1.1. Borrowing upon failures in revenue. Whenever failures in revenues of the State occur, in order to meet those failures, the Governor, Comptroller, and Treasurer may contract debts in an amount not exceeding 15% of the State's appropriations for that fiscal year. The moneys thus borrowed shall be applied to the purposes for which they were obtained, or to pay the debts thus created by the borrowing, and to no other purpose. Before incurring debt under this Section, the Governor shall give written notice to the Clerk of the House of Representatives, the Secretary of the Senate, and the Secretary of State setting forth the reasons for the proposed borrowing and the corrective measures recommended to restore the State's fiscal soundness. The notice shall be a public record and open for inspection at the offices of the Secretary of State during normal business hours. No debt may be incurred under this Section until 30 days after the notice is served. All moneys so borrowed shall be borrowed for no longer time than one year.
