FISCAL ANALYSIS


ASSUMPTION


Officials of the Department of Highways and Transportation assume no fiscal impact to their department.


Oversight sent response request to the counties that would be impacted by this proposal, and none have responded.


Oversight assumes this proposal is permissive. This proposal increases the maximum amount of road rock levy that could be imposed from 25 cents on each acre of land to 50 cents on each acre of land. Oversight assumes any increase in the levy would have to be approved by the voters of the county. For purposes of this fiscal note, impact will be shown as $0.

FISCAL IMPACT - Small Business


No direct fiscal impact to small businesses would be expected as a result of this proposal, however; should a County Commission of certain third class counties place the question of a levy rate increase on the ballot, and voters would approve an increase in property taxes for road rock, then small businesses owning property classified as agricultural or horticultural would be expected to pay the tax increase on that property.


FISCAL DESCRIPTION


The proposed legislation appears to have no fiscal impact.


This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
