FISCAL ANALYSIS
ASSUMPTION
Officials of the Department of Social Services and the Department of Corrections assumed in response to an identical proposal that there would be no fiscal impact to their agencies.
Officials of the Office of Administration assumed in response to an identical proposal that the proposal would not fiscally impact their agency. However, they indicated that in times of rapid prison population growth, it could reduce the state and political subdivision's options to contract for space and result in the over building of jail capacity.
