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. This legislation creates the Reclamation of Abandoned and Dilapidated Properties Program (RADP). A new Fund for the program is also created to be primarily funded by the Landfill Closure Cost Assistance Fund (LCAP). However, funding cannot be transferred from the LCAP Fund to the new RADP Fund until all landfills currently in the LCAP program are closed and the LCAP Fund has accumulated two times the amount of funding needed to continue operating and maintenance costs of those landfills. These stipulations make it difficult to determine how much funding would be available for the RADP Program or when that funding would be available from the LCAP Fund. SB265 allows for other contributions as a funding source, however no other funding sources have been positively identified at this time.
