FINGERPRINTING FEES - S.B. 928 (S-1): FLOOR ANALYSIS

Senate Bill 928 (Substitute S-1 as reported)

Sponsor: Senator Philip E. Hoffman

Committee: Appropriations


CONTENT


The bill would amend Public Act 120 of 1935 (which provides for fingerprinting State residents) to increase in statute from $15 to $30 the fee that the Department of State Police may charge for taking and processing fingerprints and completing a criminal record check for employment or licensing-related purposes. (Under Executive Order 2001-9, the fee is $30 for FY 2001-02.) The bill also would prohibit a fee from being collected under this section if a fee for taking and processing fingerprints is provided for under any other law. The bill is tie-barred to Senate Bill 425 (which would amend the Private Security Business and Security Alarm Act).


MCL 28.273


FISCAL IMPACT


The bill would generate approximately $1.8 million in increased fee revenue, which would be used to support operations of the Department of State Police Criminal Justice Information Center. The Governor's FY 2002-03 budget recommendation is, in part, based upon the establishment of the fee level within this bill.
