Fiscal Detail and Notes
This floor amendment removes the requirement for a concealed weapons permit but allows for the issuance of an optional permit.  It would reduce Other Special Revenue Funds revenue to the Department of Public Safety by $1,099,051 in fiscal year 2014-15 as compared to the majority committee amendment.  This analysis assumes 10% of people would apply for an optional permit.  It also removes the Other Special Revenue Funds allocation of $230,000 in fiscal year 2014-15 for 2 Office Associate II positions and one State Police Detective position contained in the majority committee amendment.
