Dear Auditor Montee:
This office received your letter of February 11, 2008, submitting a fiscal note and fiscal note summary prepared under Section 116.175, RSMo, for an initiative petition submitted by Henry Robertson regarding the Renewable Energy Standard (version 3). The fiscal note summary that you submitted is as follows:
The estimated direct cost to state governmental entities is $446,683. It is estimated there are no direct costs or savings to local governmental entities. However, indirect costs may be incurred by state and local governmental entities if the proposal results in increased electricity retail rates.
Under Section 116.175, we approve the legal content and form of the fiscal note summary. Because our review of the fiscal note summary is mandated by statute, no action that we take with respect to such review should be construed as an endorsement of the petition or as the expression of any view regarding the objectives of its proponents.
Very truly yours,
JEREMIAH W. (JAY) NIXON
Attorney General
