House Bill 3227 |
House Author: Swinford |

Effective: 6-17-05 |
Senate Sponsor: Lucio |
State law requires the office of vehicle fleet management at the Texas Building and Procurement Commission to develop a management plan to improve the administration and operation of the state vehicle fleet for nonlegislative state agencies, university systems, and institutions of higher education. House Bill 3227 amends the Government Code to require those entities to submit reports on a quarterly, rather than monthly, basis and to set a specific deadline for the reports. The bill provides that, for institutions of higher education, any plan criteria relating to minimum vehicle use do not apply, the plan is limited to vehicles purchased with appropriated money, and a waiver from any limit on the number of the vehicles an institution may own that are subject to the plan may be granted by the office.
