Creates New Expense



Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


This measure would create a new expense for the West Virginia Economic Development Authority (hereafter "WVEDA") as this agency does not have personnel or systems in existence to identify land parcels, track ownership of parcels, identify users of available parcels, or negotiate land costs associated with the acquisition of parcels of real estate. That work and personnel, and those systems, are presently in place with the West Virginia Department of Economic Development, which includes in its assigned mission site location services and business attraction staff to pursue users of sites and business development prospects within the state. It is the thought of this respondent that utilizing existing systems, personnel, and capabilities would result in a low-to-no additional cost solution to implement House Concurrent Resolution Number 2024R3423.
