MODERATE

This bill was amended to reflect updated fiscal data and procedural status after being recommitted to the committee. The primary substantive change is the update of the fiscal analysis period from 2025 to 2026, which adjusts the projected funding costs and actuarial values for the disability retirement benefit.

Scope change

The bill's scope remains the same, authorizing specific disability retirement benefits for Frank R. Smith, but the financial projections have been updated to reflect the current fiscal year.

FISCAL

Updated the fiscal analysis timeline from the 2025-2026 session to the 2026-2027 session, shifting the first projected cost year from 2026 to 2027.

Adjusted the actuarial present value date from June 30, 2025 to June 30, 2026, resulting in a slightly higher projected annual pension amount for the recipient.

TECHNICAL

Updated the fiscal note identification number and session dates to reflect the new legislative session.

TIMELINE

Changed the census data reference date from June 30, 2024 to June 30, 2025 to incorporate more recent population statistics.
