Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 1061 amends the Government Code to authorize a municipal officer or employee who is engaged in official municipal business to participate in the Texas Building and Procurement Commission's contract for travel services to obtain reduced airline fares and travel agent fees. The bill permits the commission to charge a participating municipality a fee for this service, not to exceed the costs incurred. It requires the commission to periodically review and adjust the fee to ensure cost recovery and directs the commission to adopt rules and make or amend contracts as necessary to administer the new provisions.
