Fiscal Detail
and Notes |
|
|
|
|
|
|
The mandated
activities required by the bill are funded by the state up to $40,000 per
municipality. The state costs will be
reimbursed by a $40,000 fee charged to permit applicants to be paid to the
State Planning Office. Included in the
bill is a base allocation of $500 to the State Planning Office to establish
an Other Special Revenue Funds account to collect and disburse the fees. As the 100% reimbursement exceeds the 90%
required to reimburse local units of government for activities mandated by
the state under 30-A MRSA § 5685(2), no mandate preamble is needed for this
bill. |
