Legislative Services

Coordinate the necessary research and produce fiscal notes for any legislation impacting the State retirement systems, State revenues, or the expenditures of any State agency. Fiscal notes, or other documents produced, summarize the fiscal impact that such legislation will have on the State. The information provided is primarily used by members of the General Assembly, the Governor, entities affected by the legislation, and various citizen groups.

Equalized Property Tax Digest

Establishes an equalized adjusted property tax digest for each county and for the State as a whole for use in collecting and allocating funds for public school systems, provides evidence of property appraisal deficiencies (if any) and provides data necessary for statistical analysis of levels of assessment and uniformity.
