STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
RS28851 / H0348
This legislation is a trailer bill to H 73. Since H 73 requires local government accounting, budgetary, and
financial information to be reported through a public website maintained by the State Controller, there is
no longer a need for cities to file their annual appropriation ordinance with the Secretary of State. Such
reporting would be duplicative, and undermine the purpose of the one-stop-shop of local government financial
information created by H 73.
FISCAL NOTE
The savings created by this legislation would be minimal, and would mostly consist of saved opportunity cost.
