Proffitt, Director Laura Kelly, Governor Division of the Budget February 24, 2025 The Honorable Kellie Warren, Chairperson Senate Committee on Judiciary 300 SW 10th Avenue, Room 346-S Topeka, Kansas 66612 Dear Senator Warren: SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for SB 247 by Senate Committee on Judiciary In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning SB 247 is respectfully submitted to your committee. SB 247 would amend the Scrap Metal Theft Reduction Act. Currently, a vehicle dealer is exempt from certain requirements when selling scrap metal. Under SB 247 vehicle dealers would no longer be exempt. The Office of the Attorney General states that enactment of the bill could increase the number of violations reported to the Office, but any additional workload could be absorbed within existing resources. Sincerely, Adam C. Proffitt Director of the Budget cc: Matt Bingesser, Office of the Attorney General
