Legislative Cost/Study

Projections Projections FY 2019-20 FY 2020-21 FY 2021-22 FY 2022-23 Appropriations/Allocations Other Special Revenue Funds $21,798 $0 $0 $0

Fiscal Detail and Notes The bill would require a one-time Other Special Revenue Funds allocation of $21,798 in 2019-20 for the Legislature's costs of participating in and securing contract staffing for the Task Force on Alternatives to Incarceration for Maine Youth. These costs are to be funded with unspecified outside funding. If sufficient funding is not received within 30 days after the effective date of the resolve, no meetings are authorized and no expenses of any kind may be incurred or reimbursed.

Any additional costs to the departments whose commissioners or their designees are required to serve on the Task Force on Alternatives to Incarceration for Maine Youth and report back to the legislature are expected to be minor and can be absorbed within existing budgeted resources.
