Memorandum


An indirect fiscal effect of this piece of legislation would be the ability to eliminate the General Revenue Vehicle Appropriation for the West Virginia State Police (0453-45100). For FY2017 the Governor’s recommended appropriation is $420,751 but typically the appropriation is $1,500,000 to $2,000,000.
