Explanation of Fiscal Impact

 

State Expenditure

This bill amends ยง11-35-710, relating to exemptions from the state procurement code, so as to add planning for repairs to bridges, highways, roads, and other improvements on the state's rights of way to the list of exemptions. The bill specifies that this exemption does not apply to welcome centers operated or staffed by PRT.

 

Department of Transportation. DOT indicates that this bill clarifies the agency's ability to work on other improvements on the state's right of way and their authority to do procurement on those projects but does not create any additional costs for the agency. Therefore, this bill will have no expenditure impact on the Department of Transportation (DOT).

 

Department of Parks, Recreation, and Tourism. This bill specifies that the exemption does not apply to welcome centers operated or staffed by PRT. Therefore, the department indicates that the bill will have no expenditure impact because it does not materially or fiscally impact the agency.

 

State Fiscal Accountability Authority.  SFAA indicates that this bill will have no expenditure impact since it does not materially or fiscally impact the agency.
