         FROM:  John Keel, Director    
         
In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on HB805 ( Relating 
to establishing policy boards for certain public institutions 
of higher education to assist in the governance of those institutions.) 
this office has detemined the following:
         
         Biennial Net Impact to General Revenue Funds by HB805-As Introduced
         
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. 
 Policy board members would be eligible for reimbursement for 
travel expenses, but these are not estimated to be significant.
         
The bill would make no appropriation but could provide the legal 
basis for an appropriation of funds to implement the provisions 
of the bill.
         
 
          
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
