Fiscal Note Summary


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


Some cost increases are known such as the proposed $10,000 increase to the codified salary of the Commissioner of Corrections and Rehabilitation. Some consolidation cost savings are being realized such as restructuring of legal services for the agencies, the building consolidation efforts of combining operational aspects of the DOC, RJA, and DJS into one unified location and all the administrative services for the three agencies into one consolidated work location; in essence going from the current three central office operations to one operational central office and one administrative services operation across the three agencies. However, with the ongoing repositioning of programs and services across the three agencies and shifting of personnel to better serve the consolidated structure, it is virtually impossible to predict or estimate savings or cost increases until all the dust settles. I believe DMAPS will be better equipped after years two or three of the consolidation process to discuss in greater details the cost savings, the cost increases and the expected realized efficiencies from the overall structural shifts throughout the consolidation process.
