A. This section shall be known and may be cited as the

“Municipal Fiscal Impact Act”.

B. As used in this section, “direct adverse fiscal impact”

means the cost in dollars to a municipality in this state of a

statute which imposes a mandate for the new or additional

application of municipal resources or reduces existing municipal

resources without providing revenue which would fully fund the

mandate. Municipal resources may include, but are not limited to:

law enforcement, fire protection, health and medical services, power

and water services, streets, bridges or highways and recreational

services.

C. A fiscal impact statement shall be required for any bill or

resolution which is determined by the chair of the legislative

committee to which the bill or resolution is assigned to have a

potential direct adverse fiscal impact on municipalities in this

state. The impact statement shall identify the estimated amount of

the fiscal impact and any source of federal, state or local revenue

that will be used to fund the proposed mandate. If the chair of the

committee to which the bill or resolution is assigned determines

that the bill or resolution, or a proposed amendment, is subject to

the provisions of this section, the chair shall:

1. Request the preparation of a fiscal impact statement prior

to placing the bill, resolution or amendment on the agenda to be

considered at a meeting of the committee;

2. Provide notice to the principal author of the bill,

resolution or amendment regarding the determination; and

3. Make the fiscal impact statement available, on and after the

date of the committee meeting during which the bill or resolution is

considered, to the author, members of the committee considering the

bill or resolution and any other party requesting information.

D. No bill, resolution or amendment determined to have a direct

adverse fiscal impact on municipalities in excess of One Hundred

Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) statewide shall be reported out of

the committee to which it is assigned, or in the case of a floor

amendment, shall be acted upon by the relevant house, unless a

fiscal impact statement of the bill is made.

E. Any bill, resolution or amendment determined to have a

direct adverse fiscal impact on municipalities in excess of One

Hundred Thousand Dollars ($100,000.00) statewide for which an

emergency clause has not received required approval pursuant to

Section 58 of Article V of the Oklahoma Constitution shall not go

into effect until July 1 of the following calendar year.
