Dear Senator Petersen:
SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for SB 187 by Senate Committee on Ways and Means
In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning SB 187 is
respectfully submitted to your committee.
SB 187 would make the following adjustments to permit fees on oversize or overweight

1. Single-trip permits would increase from $20 to $40 for each permit;
2. Single-trip permits for a large structure would increase from $30 to $60 for each permit;
3. Single-trip permits for a superload would increase from $50 to $100 for each permit;
4. Five-year permits for vehicles authorized to move bales of hay on non-interstate highways
would increase from $25 to $50;
5. Annual permits would increase from $150 to $300 for each permit; and

The Kansas Department of Transportation (KDOT) estimates SB 187 would decrease
revenues to the State Highway Fund by approximately $1.4 million. KDOT notes that because the
bill sunsets the current schedule of fees prior to January 1, 2020, but would not implement the new
fees until July 1, 2020, there would be a six-month period in FY 2020 in which no fees would be
in effect. KDOT estimates the bill would increase revenues to the State Highway Fund by
approximately $2.7 million annually beginning in FY 2021. KDOT indicates the bill would
require additional expenditures to update the agency’s Kansas Trucking Routing and Intelligent
Permitting System (K-TRIPS). However, KDOT estimates these expenditures could be handled
within existing resources. Any fiscal effect associated with SB 187 is not reflected in The FY 2020
Governor’s Budget Report.


Sincerely,

Larry L. Campbell
Director of the Budget
