Fiscal Note Summary
Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.
The stated purpose of this bill is to authorize local units of government to adopt local energy efficiency partnership programs and to create districts to promote the use of energy efficiency improvements by owners of certain real property; to provide for the financing of such programs through voluntary property assessments, commercial lending, and other means; to authorize a local unit of government to issue bonds, notes, and other evidences of indebtedness and to pay the cost of energy efficiency improvements from the proceeds thereof; to provide for the repayment of bonds, notes, and other evidences of indebtedness; to authorize certain fees; to prescribe the powers and duties of certain governmental officers and entities; and to provide remedies.
Passage of this bill would have no impact on State revenue. The revenue impact to local governments cannot be determined because we do not know how many voluntary partnerships might be formed or the taxes that might be imposed.
There would be a minimal increase in costs to the State Tax Department. There would be some additional administrative costs to local governments that decided to form one or more partnerships.
