Statement of Purpose / Fiscal Impact


                         
                       STATEMENT OF PURPOSE

                            RS 16780

The purpose of this legislation is to increase the compensation
to members of the district boards of health for each day spent in
the actual performance of duties from $50 to $75. Board members
must take time from their regular jobs and duties to attend to
the demands of the public on behalf of the districts. Increasing
the compensation rate is the appropriate thing to do for these
dedicated members who serve the public.


                           FISCAL IMPACT

The fiscal impact to the state is minimal. The cost to each
district board of health is approximately $2,000 per year,
totaling $14,000 for the seven districts statewide. The state=s
portion of the districts= total budget is approximately 17.5%,
resulting in the state=s share of the increase being
approximately $2,500. Counties provide about 14% of the funding
and the balance of the cost would be borne by the other funding
sources of the districts.
