Summary

The legislation amends several statutes to let counties submit more than one claim to recover prosecution costs from correctional institution incidents, but only for amounts that exceed a threshold based on local property‑tax revenue. It also redefines key terms, gives the Risk Manager new authority to receive, investigate, and forward claims, and changes how claims are reviewed by the State Claims Board, the Legislature, and the Business and Labor Committee. The changes apply to incidents occurring after May 1, 2015 and remove any time limit for recovery.
