Office of Legislative Services Estimate
Fiscal Impact One-Time
State Expenditure Increase Up to $75,000
 The Office of Legislative Services (OLS) estimates that the provisions of this bill will result in
a one-time outlay of State resources of up to $75,000 in order to design and establish a new
website, as described under the bill. To the extent that the website is created by a third party
contractor, the cost of the bill will be closer to $75,000; to the extent that the website is created

the creation of the website will be absorbed into the State’s existing budget.
