Enactment of this bill could cost from the General Fund about $103,600 in FY 2026, $198,000 in FY 2027 and $256,600 in FY 2028 and increase by about $55,000 annually until FY 2036 when costs reach a steady state of $696,600 ongoing. The General Fund cost breakdown is as follows: 1. Public Safety - $103,600 in FY 2026, $194,300 in FY 2027 and $249,300 in FY 2028 for the establishment/maintenance of a sex offender monitoring program, IT system changes, and legal services. These costs could increase each year by about $55,000 until FY 2036 when they reach $689,300 as certain offenders are increasingly added to the monitoring program (Attorney General legal costs are included in this amount and would similarly increase by about $1,900 annually until $19,000 in FY 2036); and 2. Courts - $3,700 in FY 2027 and $7,300 in FY 2028 for warrant review. This estimate assumes about 10 offenders are added to the monitoring program 2027 and increase by the same amount each year until FY 2036, or about 100 offenders.
