California will end its current fiscal year with almost $3 billion, the second period that the most-populous U.S. state will have a positive balance, as revenue and transfers outpace expenses.

The state also is projected to end fiscal 2015 with $2.1 billion in reserves, while bond spending is forecasted to decline 53 percent, Legislative Analyst Mac Taylor said today in a report.
