FROM:
Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HJR73 by Burns (Proposing a constitutional amendment to restrict the power of the legislature to mandate requirements on a municipality or county.), As Introduced
Depending upon future actions of the legislature, there could be an indeterminate cost to the state to pay or reimburse municipalities and counties.
The cost to the state for publication of the resolution is $114,369.
The bill would require the state to pay or reimburse municipalities and counties for legislation that would require municipalities and counties to expend revenue to comply with the legislation. Otherwise, the law would not be effective.
Local Government Impact
The fiscal implications to units of local government cannot be determined at this time
