This bill revises the rules for creating fiscal notes (cost estimates) that accompany ballot measures in South Dakota. It clarifies when the Legislative Research Council must prepare these notes and tightens the requirement that fiscal notes include estimates of impacts on state and local government revenues, spending, and liabilities, plus any effects on prison or jail populations. The bill also limits fiscal notes to a maximum of 50 words and repeals a related provision while updating several definitions and procedures.
