Fiscal Note Summary


Effect this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government.


Summarize in a clear and concise manner what impact this measure will have on costs and revenues of state government. The provisions of the proposed bill would create a new Economic and Community Development Task Force on which the Executive Director of the West Virginia Economic Development Authority, or his or her designee, would serve as a member. This new taskforce would be responsible for studying and encouraging pilot programs for targeted community improvement and enrichment, and would be required to submit a report to the Joint Committee on Government and Finance by the first year anniversary of its establishment. WVEDA is not able to estimate any additional revenues or expenses of state government arising from the formation of this Task Force.

Memorandum


Please identify any areas of vagueness, technical defects, reasons a bill would not have a fiscal impact, and/or any special issues not captured elsewhere on this form. WVEDA currently does not have an appointed Executive Director, so WVEDA suggests that the Task Force include an alternate to the WVEDA Executive Director in the case of any vacancy of that position. In newly created section 5B-9-2(a), on line 4, WVEDA suggests that the following language replace what is currently in the bill: "(3) The Executive Director of the West Virginia Economic Development Authority, or his or her designee, or during any period when such position is vacant, the Associate Director of the West Virginia Economic Development Authority, or his or her designee."
