Enactment of this legislation likely will not materially impact state revenue.

Enactment of this legislation could lead to an overall cost to the Courts of $196,500 ongoing General Fund beginning in FY 2025 based on the following metrics: $26,400 ongoing beginning in FY 2025 to process additional referrals from children who commit a second criminal offense on school property; a $3,100 ongoing reduction beginning in FY 2025 as a result of the Courts sending fewer probation notices; and $173,200 due to additional court time required to try juveniles under this new statute. Enactment of this legislation could also cost the Division of Juvenile Justice and Youth Services $4,715,400 ongoing General Fund beginning in FY 2025 to hire additional staff to supervise up to 44 additional commitments to juvenile secure care each year. This cost could be reduced by $3,143,600 one-time in FY 2025 due to time required to ramp up service. Enactment of this legislation could also cost the Division of Juvenile Justice and Youth Services $450,000 one-time General Fund in FY 2025 to prepare space for the additional commitments. Enactment of this legislation could also cost the Department of Health and Human Services $156,300 ongoing General Fund beginning in FY 2025 in administrative costs of hiring additional employees in the Division of Juvenile Justice and Youth Services. This is also backed out one-time in FY 2025 by $104,200 to account for ramp up time.
