Fiscal Detail and Notes
The provisions that change requirements and terms for registry identification cards issued under the Medical Use of
Cannabis Program will reduce Other Special Revenue Funds revenue to the OCP by $37,110 in fiscal year 2024-25,
$131,550 in fiscal 2025-26 and $37,110 in fiscal year 2026-27. The provisions that change terms for individual
identification cards issued under the Adult Use Cannabis Program will reduce Other Special Revenue Funds revenue
to the OCP by $174,318 in fiscal year 2026-27.
This bill includes ongoing allocations of $137,605 to the Office of Cannabis Policy (OCP) within the Department of
Administrative and Financial Services beginning in fiscal year 2024-25 for one OCP Compliance Inspector position
and associated position costs.
This bill may increase the number of civil suits filed in the court system. The additional workload associated with the
minimal number of new cases filed in the court system does not require additional funding at this time. The collection
of additional filing fees will increase General Fund revenue by minor amounts.
