Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
Summarize in a clear and concise manner what impact this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
HB2491 lacks a clear definition of regional field employees. Division of Highways (DOH) has defined "regional field employees" as our DOH Transportation Worker Series. This does not include multiple classifications and series found in each district, i.e., storekeepers, accounting technicians, administrative staff.
