FISCAL ANALYSIS


ASSUMPTION


Officials with the Department of Agriculture assume no fiscal impact to their agency.


Officials with the Secretary of State's Office (SOS) assume this bill designates a new state symbol. This bill may result in revisions to the School/Information Packet (state symbols brochure and coloring book) and the Official Manual (state symbols section) as published by the Secretary of State.


Based on current content and distribution of the School Information Packet as published, the Secretary of State's Office would revise the materials of the packet to include the newly designated state symbol. The estimated cost to revise the packet for the approximately 100,000 packets distributed each fiscal year is $500. We would have to redesign the symbols page to accommodate the ever increasing number of state symbols that have been created.


Based on the current content and layout of the state symbols section of the Official Manual, the Secretary of State's Office would revise this section to include a photo of the symbol and may result in additional page(s) to the book. The estimated cost of revising this section of the Official Manual would be $0.03 per book. Additionally, the office would incur the cost of payment to an artist for a rendition of the new symbol. Based on historical costs, this is approximately $100 per symbol.


Oversight assumes the SOS could absorb the costs of printing and distributing packets and sections of the State Manual related to this proposal. If multiple bills pass which require the printing and distribution of packets at substantial costs, the SOS could request funding through the appropriation process.
