FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB430 by VanDeaver (Relating to the criteria and qualifications for distributions under the rural volunteer fire department assistance program.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would expand the criteria and qualifications for distributions from the Volunteer Fire Department Assistance Fund to include the age of the equipment used by a department. Based on the analysis of the Texas A&M Forest Service, it is assumed that any costs associated with the bill could be absorbed using existing resources.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
