House Bill 1573 amends the Transportation Code to authorize the commissioners court of a county that has a population of more than 1.5 million and is coterminous with a regional mobility authority, in addition to such a court in a border county that meets certain population criteria, to impose an additional vehicle registration fee, not to exceed $10, to fund long-term transportation projects in those counties. The bill provides that the transportation projects must be consistent with the purposes specified by the constitution for which revenue from motor vehicle registration fees may be used.
