FISCAL NOTE, 79TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
February 13, 2005

TO:
Honorable Dianne White Delisi, Chair, House Committee on Public Health
 
FROM:
John S. O'Brien, Deputy Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB135 by Solomons (Relating to regulation of health spas.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would require health spa operators to submit a copy of their operator's registration certificate when they apply for a sales tax permit with the Comptroller's Office; change the amount of security required for health spa operator certificate; require the Secretary of State to review the amount of security at least once every five years; and require the Comptroller's Office to provide the Secretary of State a list of sales tax permit-holders and health spa service providers. No significant costs are anticipated to the state because changes to existing programs would be minimal, and securities would continue to be held outside of the state.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
