FISCAL NOTE, 88TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION


March 26, 2023

TO:	Honorable Robert Nichols, Chair, Senate Committee on Transportation

FROM:	Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board

IN RE:	SB1364 by Alvarado (Relating to weight limitations for certain natural gas or electric vehicles.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend Transportation Code, Section 621.101, regarding weight limitations for certain vehicles, to specify that a vehicle primarily fueled by natural gas or primarily by electric battery power may exceed the gross vehicle weight established by this section by up to 2,000 pounds.

Based on the analysis provided by the Department of Transportation and the Department of Motor Vehicles, it is assumed implementation of the bill would not result in a significant fiscal impact to the State.

Local Government Impact

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