L.R. No. 3113H.01I Bill No. HB 1482 Page 3 of March 10, 2025 MR:LR:OD FISCAL ANALYSIS ASSUMPTION Section 42.300 - Funding for a memorial or museum dedicated to veterans in Perry County Officials from the Department of Public Safety - Missouri Veterans Commission (MVC) state assuming the appropriation currently called for in HB 20 at section 20.997 is passed as currently proposed, MVC anticipates no fiscal impact from this bill for the upcoming fiscal year. However, the bill amends section 42.300 RSMo, to create authority within the Veterans Commission Capital Improvement Fund (VCCITF) to fund a veterans memorial or museum in any county meeting the demographic specifications set forth in the bill and would remain in place until subsequently amended or rescinded. With such being the case, MVC estimates a potential negative fiscal impact of at least $500,000 in fiscal years beyond the upcoming fiscal year from this bill. Currently, MVC is unable to satisfy the statutory requirements of section 42.300.1 (1) – (4), and (7) due to current cash flow constraints, so implementation of this bill could further burden an insolvent fund in fiscal years beyond the upcoming fiscal year. Oversight notes that per the guidelines of §42.300.8; Perry County is the only county within the state that meets both the county population requirements (more than 17,600 but fewer than 19,000 inhabitants) and the county seat population requirements (more than 8,000 but fewer than 10,000 inhabitants). Oversight notes the funding of this legislation is subject to appropriation. Oversight assumes a negative fiscal impact of zero (no appropriation) Up to $500,000 to the Veterans Commission Capital Improvement Fund (0304) for FY 2026, FY 2027 and FY 2028. Officials from the Office of Administration - Budget and Planning (B&P) state that there is a $3.5M Budget Stabilization Fund appropriation in the FY 25 ARPA budget (HB 20.997) that dedicates funding for this purpose through the Missouri National Guard. B&P further notes that this proposal would allow the Veterans Commission Capital Improvement Trust Fund to be used for a veterans memorial in Perry County. This will impose costs up to $500,000 subject to appropriation. This will not impact Total State Revenue. Officials from the Missouri National Guard (MONG) state that there is no fiscal impact. Upon further discussion, the MONG stated that last year there was money put into the FY2025 budget in the HB2020 ARPA bill for MONG to pass through. Section 20.998 provides $1,000,000 for the Churchill Museum. Section 20.997 provides $3,500,000 for the Veteran’s Memorial in Perry County. Neither private entity has contacted the MONG to draw down the FY2025 funding. L.R. No. 3113H.01I Bill No. HB 1482 Page 4 of March 10, 2025 MR:LR:OD Officials from the Office of the State Treasurer, the City of Kansas City, the City of O’Fallon, and the City of Osceola respective organizations. Oversight does not have any information to the contrary. Therefore, Oversight will reflect a zero impact in the fiscal note for these agencies. Rule Promulgation Officials from the Joint Committee on Administrative Rules assume this proposal is not anticipated to cause a fiscal impact beyond its current appropriation. Officials from the Office of the Secretary of State (SOS) note many bills considered by the General Assembly include provisions allowing or requiring agencies to submit rules and regulations to implement the act. The SOS is provided with core funding to handle a certain amount of normal activity resulting from each year's legislative session. The fiscal impact for this fiscal note to the SOS for Administrative Rules is less than $5,000. The SOS recognizes that this is a small amount and does not expect that additional funding would be required to meet these costs. However, the SOS also recognizes that many such bills may be passed by the General Assembly in a given year and that collectively the costs may be in excess of what the office can sustain with its core budget. Therefore, the SOS reserves the right to request funding for the cost of supporting administrative rules requirements should the need arise based on a review of the finally approved bills signed by the governor.
