FISCAL NOTE
In the event all functions and activities addressed in this legislation were transferred effective July 1, 2006 to the newly created Department of Tourism and Recreation, the following transfers (change in budget requests) for the FY07-08 Biennium would be anticipated:
· A total of $13,667,423 from the General Fund would be transferred from the Wyoming Business Council.
· A total of $1,545,044 in General Funds and $3,196,468 in Other Funds (Fees) would be transferred from the Department of Parks and Cultural Resources.
The above impacts could be considered administrative in nature, but for the fact that this legislation creates a new department. As such, the anticipated move of budget requests are shown here for simplicity.
This bill has administrative impact that appears to increase (or decrease) duties or responsibilities of one or more state agencies and may impact agency spending or staffing requirements. As introduced, the bill does not modify any state agency budget or current personnel authorizations.
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:
