FY 2024 – Motor Vehicle Bureau Associate Research/Data Analyst 327 hrs. @ $19.90 per hr. = $ 6,507 Research/Data Analyst 82 hrs. @ $24.84 per hr. = $ 2,037 Administrative Manager 41 hrs. @ $26.96 per hr. = $ 1,105 FY 2024 – Strategy and Communications Office Research /Data Assistant 80 hrs. @ $24.84 per hr. = $ 1,987 Administrative Manager 20 hrs. @ $26.96 per hr. = $ 539 Total Costs = $12,175 The Department anticipates being able to absorb these administrative costs. If multiple bills are passed that require Department resources, funding may be requested through the appropriations process. Oversight assumes DOR will use existing staff and will not hire additional FTE to conduct these activities; therefore, Oversight will not reflect the administrative costs DOR has indicated on the fiscal note. DOR notes OA-ITSD services will be required at a cost of $82,695 in FY 2024 (870.48 hours x $95 per hour). Oversight does not have any information to the contrary in regards to DOR’s assumptions; therefore, Oversight will reflect DOR’s OA-ITSD costs on the fiscal note. L.R.

Based on information provided by DOR, sales tax collections for qualifying motor vehicles were $134,520,922 ($76,077,963 state + $58,442,959 local) in FY 2022. B&P notes that the state sales tax rate is 4.225%, which is distributed between the State Road Bond Fund, State Road Fund, State Transportation Fund, Fuel Local Deposit (FLOYD), School District Trust Fund, Conservation, and Parks, Soil and Water funds (DNR).
