NON-ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACT
Anticipated Expenditure Increase:
Wyoming Air Services Enhancement Account	3,000,000

 

Source of expenditure increase:

 

General Fund appropriation to the Wyoming Air Services Enhancement Account

 

Assumptions:

 

The proposed language moves the authority of air service in Wyoming from the Wyoming Business Council to the Aeronautics Commission.  The bill provides for an appropriation of $3,000,000 for Wyoming Air Services Enhancements in FY 2006.

 

In addition, $450,000 is appropriated to the Wyoming Department of Transportation for personnel, information, marketing, consulting, investigation and pursuit of statewide air service enhancement under the auspice of the Aeronautics Commission.  This is considered an administrative impact.  Therefore, this bill has administrative impact that appears to increase duties of the Department of Transportation and may impact agency spending or staffing requirements. As introduced, the bill modifies the Wyoming Department of Transportation budget and current personnel authorizations and transfers one FTE from the Wyoming Business Council.

The following state agencies will be asked to provide their estimate of the administrative fiscal impact prior to the first committee meeting held to consider the bill:

 

Wyoming Business Council

Wyoming Department of Transportation
