The Honorable Bill Sutton, Chairperson
House Committee on Elections
Statehouse, Room 274C-W
Topeka, Kansas 66612
Dear Representative Sutton:
SUBJECT: Fiscal Note for HB 2423 by Representative Rhiley
In accordance with KSA 75-3715a, the following fiscal note concerning HB 2423 is
respectfully submitted to your committee.
HB 2423 would amend existing law relating to the qualifications for the office of sheriff to
prohibit a person who has been convicted of driving under the influence from being eligible for
nomination, election or appointment to this office.
According to the Kansas Commission on Peace Officers’ Standards and Training,
enactment of HB 2423 would have no fiscal effect. The Kansas Association of Counties reports
that any costs associated with determining whether a candidate has been convicted of driving under
the influence would be part of the costs already incurred for certifying that candidates are qualified.


Sincerely,

Larry L. Campbell
Director of the Budget
