Fiscal note

From the Legislative Fiscal Analyst's note on H.B. 456, dated February 5, 2026. A fiscal note estimates direct costs and revenue; it is not an appropriation.

  • State revenue: Enactment of this legislation could increase Dedicated Credit revenue to the Department of Agriculture and Food by $327,600 ongoing beginning in FY 2027 from increased pesticide program fees.
  • State expenditures: Enactment of this legislation could cost the Department of Agriculture and Food (UDAF) $87,000 one-time and $327,600 ongoing from Dedicated Credits in FY 2027 for enforcement and education related to pesticide application within 1,000 feet of school boundaries. Enactment of this legislation could also cost UDAF $600 one-time from the General Fund in FY 2027 for rule making.
  • Local government: Enactment of this legislation likely will not result in direct, measurable costs for local governments.
  • Individuals and businesses: Enactment of this legislation could increase the amount paid by certain pesticide related businesses by $327,600 annually from increased registration and license fees.
