Proffitt, Director Laura Kelly, Governor Division of the Budget February 6, 2025 The Honorable Susan Estes, Chairperson House Committee on Education 300 SW 10th Avenue, Room 218-N Topeka, Kansas 66612 Dear Representative Estes: SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for HB 2139 by House Committee on Education In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning HB 2139 is respectfully submitted to your committee. Under current law, school districts are required to have sealed bids for goods and service contracts when the value of the goods and services is greater than $20,000. HB 2139 would increase this threshold to $50,000. The enactment of HB would have no fiscal effect on state aid to school districts or state expenditures. The Kansas Association of School Boards indicates that the bill would allow greater administrative flexibility for bids for certain goods and services. Any fiscal effect from the enactment of the bill would likely be negligible. Sincerely, Adam C. Proffitt Director of the Budget cc: Gabrielle Hull, Department of Education Angie Stallbaumer, Kansas Association of School Boards
