*********** ANALYSIS ADDENDUM - SUSPENSE FILE ***********
The following information is revised to reflect amendments
adopted by the committee on May 27, 2016
Fiscal
Impact:
Unknown costs to provide funding to local health jurisdictions
(General Fund). The bill requires the Department of Public
Health to make funding available, upon appropriation by the
Legislature, to local health jurisdictions. The amount of
funding available under the bill is unknown at this time and
would depend on future budget appropriations. Staff is not

aware of any significant source of funding that could be used
for this new program other than the General Fund.
Unknown costs to provide program administration, including
developing program guidelines, reviewing applications,
awarding grants, and monitoring accountability requirements on
grantees. If the amount of funding made available in the
future were $10 million per year, the Department would be able
to spend up to $1 million per year to administer the program.
Committee
Amendments: Delete the authority to contract with community
based organizations and cap administrative expenses at 10% of
total program funding.
