Fiscal effect: The inspection fees for
inflatable rides currently differ depending
upon whether the ride is a kiddie ride
($100) or an adult ride ($160).
Standardizing the inspection fee for all
inflatable rides will likely result in a
minimal loss of revenue from these
inspections, while increasing the roller
coaster inspection fee will likely result in
some additional revenue deposited into
the Amusement Ride Inspection Fund
(Fund 5780). The anticipated net impact
of these adjustments, however, is a
decline in annual inspection revenue to

H. B. 483
As Passed by the House
As Passed by the Senate
As Reported by Conference Committee
Fiscal effect: The State Board of
Pharmacy will experience a loss in
licensing fee revenue related to terminal
distributor of dangerous drugs licenses.
Currently, in order to possess, distribute,
and administer naloxone, law
enforcement agencies are required to
obtain an terminal distributor of
dangerous drugs license and remit a fee
in the amount of $112.50 annually. There
are approximately 972 law enforcement
agencies in the state. However, it is
uncertain how many of these agencies
would have sought licensure in order to
possess and distribute naloxone.
Additionally, agencies that are attached
to a correctional facility (e.g., county jail)
or employ the use of dog trainers may
have already carried a terminal
distributor of dangerous drugs license.
Therefore, the total amount of potential
revenue loss due to this provision
annually is uncertain. Licensing fees are
deposited to the credit of the
Occupational Licensing and Regulatory
Fund (Fund 4K90).

Fiscal effect: The provision temporarily
"freezes" the percentage of the
mitigation rate to up to 4.5% until July 1,
2015. Under existing law, each public
institution of higher education may offer
an ARP to certain academic and
administrative employees. The
institutions of participants in the ARP
must contribute a percentage of the
participants' compensation to the
retirement system (in this case it would
be STRS) that would otherwise cover the
ARP participant to mitigate any negative
financial impact of the ARP on the
retirement system's defined benefit (DB)
plan. The percentage paid by public
institutions of higher education is
determined by actuarial studies
conducted by the ORSC and submitted to
the Board of Regents. Currently, public
institutions of higher education
contribute 4.5% of ARP participants
payroll to STRS' DB plan to help pay for
unfunded liabilities. The provision that
requires the ORSC to study and
recommend changes to the ARP
mitigating rate may increase costs to the

The provision would allow the state to

However, generally, the longer the
maturity period of a bond, the higher its
