Methodology
Based on the information provided by the Department of Savings and Mortgage Lending (SML), it is assumed that SML would require 1.0 additional FTE, including 0.5 Financial Examiner and 0.5 Administrative Assistant at the total salary and benefits cost of $59,830 each fiscal year to process and review applications. Additional costs include operating expenses of $1,000 each fiscal year and a technology cost of $975 in 2010 and 2014 for a computer. Based on the analysis of the Department of Banking (DOB), duties and responsibilities associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be accomplished by utilizing existing resources. SML and DOB are self-leveling agencies and are statutorily required to generate revenues sufficient to cover all of the agency's direct and indirect costs.
Technology
Technology cost of $975 in 2010 and 2014 for computer equipment.
Local Government Impact
It is assumed that a local government would submit an application for the designation of a banking development district only if funding and partnership opportunities were available.
