SB 339 FISCAL NOTE

AN ACT permitting the department of transportation to hire consultants.

FISCAL IMPACT:

The Department of Transportation indicates this bill, as amended by the House (Amendment #2006-1855h), will have no fiscal impact on state, county and local revenue or expenditures.

METHODOLOGY:

The Department Transportation (DOT) states that this bill permits the Department to hire financial consultants to be paid a total amount not to exceed $210,000 in FY 2007 from unexpended existing appropriations. DOT, therefore states that since the money to pay consultants must come from existing appropriations, there is no fiscal impact.
