There are also several other documents attached to the bill. One is a
financial statement
Explanation of Local Expenditures: Board-certified training centers, such
as the Indianapolis Metropolitan Police Department facility, may require
additional expenditures to train reserve police officers. Any additional
training would have to be carried out within existing resources. The
specific impact to local expenditures would depend on the facility and the
number of reserve officers that are trained. Additionally, the bill could
reduce the number of full-time police officer candidates sponsored for
basic training at the LETA by their local law enforcement agency if greater
numbers of reserve officers are sponsored.
