FISCAL ANALYSIS

ASSUMPTION

The Department of Economic Development (DED) assumes this legislation requires formation of five community revitalization projects to develop a community building and asset building plan within one year of formation. The DED assumes this program must start by July 1, 1999.

The DED assumes state involvement with the five pilot projects will require one Economic Development Incentive Specialist and related expenses and equipment including $2,466 for rental space in the Truman State Office Building. The DED assumes they would develop, administer and help implement the plan including assistance with raising funds. The Economic Development Incentive Specialist would also answer questions, meet with the oversight committee, and assist with the identification of the pilot projects. The DED assumes they would appoint an oversight committee to review proposals. The DED assumes they would conduct evaluations contract activities as required in the proposal.

The DED assumes this proposal says the DED may match the local funds raised. The DED estimates the matching funds to be $30,000 per pilot year. The DED assumes the matching costs are subject to appropriation.

Oversight assumes the additional staff would be located within existing office space and would not require additional funds for rent expense. Oversight assumes the proposal as amended would stop project funding on July 1, 2004. The amendment is not expected to have any affect during the fiscal note period.

Oversight assumes the amount to be used to match funds raised by the local pilot projects is unknown and subject to appropriation.

DESCRIPTION

This act requires the Department of Economic Development to initiate five pilot community revitalization projects in high poverty areas of the state. The projects are to be centered around micro-economic development of community resources, and the Department of Economic Development is required to coordinate public and private resources to help develop economic strategies to increase individual, family, and community assets. The projects are required to begin by July 1, 1999 and project funding would stop on July 1, 2004.

This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
