Fiscal Detail and Notes
Basing the assessment fee on a portion of a town's land rather than the equalized state valuation of the entire town will reduce General Fund revenue beginning in the 2006-2007 biennium.  The amount can not be determined at this time and will depend on the value of the effected property.
Allowing the Maine Land Use Regulation Commission within the Department of Conservation to adopt rules to establish fees may increase General Fund revenues collected by the commission.  Any increased amounts will depend on the fees established by the commission and can not be determined at this time.
