Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
Based on the passing of this pending legislation, this would significantly impact those within the volunteer and part volunteer departments throughout the State. The positive impact and flexibility for the fire commission to assist in the funding of the Fire Service and Training Equipment fund and the Recruitment and Retention fund would help to boost the morale and capabilities of these said departments.

Explanation of above estimates (including long-range effect):
I do not believe there would be significant increases to personal service and current expenses of our agency to administer the funding even on the new recruitment and retention program. I estimate the total increase to revenue with the .45% would be in the range of $11 million range ($1.55 million for Recruitment and Retention; $2.44 million for the Fire Service Equipment and Training Fund; $7 million for Fire Protection Fund.
