HB 676-FN-A-LOCAL – FISCAL NOTE
AN ACT extending and expanding the Coos county job creation tax credit.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Department of Revenue Administration states this bill, as introduced, will decrease state revenue by an indeterminable amount in FY 2014 and each year thereafter. There is no fiscal impact on county and local revenue, or state, county, and local expenditures.
METHODOLOGY:
The Department of Revenue Administration states this bill extends the Coos County job creation tax credit and expands eligibility for the tax credit to the 15 percent of municipalities outside of Coos County which have the highest unemployment rates in the state over the past three years. The impact of the Coos County job creation tax credit has resulted in state revenue decreasing by $2,900 in FY 2009, $36,000 in FY 2010, and $12,750 in FY 2011. The Department is not able to determine which municipalities would qualify under the proposed bill, which businesses are in those municipalities and possibility of the businesses hiring eligible employees to take advantage of the job creation tax credit to determine any potential decrease in state revenues. The Department states it would be able to absorb any costs associated with this bill in the Department’s operating budget.
