                           FISCAL NOTE
                       74th Regular Session

                        February 15, 1995



 TO:     Honorable John T. Montford, Chair      IN RE:  Senate Bill No. 123
         Committee on Finance                           By:  Leedom
         Senate
         Austin, Texas







FROM: John Keel, Director

In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on Senate Bill No.
123 (Relating to the issuance of specially designed license
plates for certain military personnel and veterans.) this office
has determined the following:

The bill would make no appropriation but could provide the legal
basis for an appropriation of funds to implement the provisions
of the bill.

The bill provides for the issuance of special license plates to
recipients of the Air Force cross or distinguished-service cross,
the Army distinguished-service cross, the Navy cross, or the
medal of honor.

Participants would be exempted from motor vehicle registration
fees.

The cost for production of the new specialized plate would  be
$40,000 in fiscal year 1996 to be funded out of State Highway
Fund 006.  Revenue losses attributable to the exemption from
motor vehicle registration fees or cost in subsequent years are
not expected to be significant.

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