      TO: Honorable Fred M. Bosse, Chair            IN RE:  House Bill No. 3240
          Committee on Land and Resource Management                              By: Hilderbran
          House
          Austin, Texas
         
         
         
         
         FROM:  John Keel, Director    
         
In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on HB3240 ( Relating 
to the disannexation of an area by a general-law municipality.) 
this office has detemined the following:
         
         Biennial Net Impact to General Revenue Funds by HB3240-As Introduced
         

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
         

         
 
          
This bill could have a negative fiscal impact on a municipality 
with a population of 1,000 to 4,999 that disannexes an area, 
since such a municipality would be required to continue providing 
services but could no longer collect ad valorem taxes on property 
in the disannexed area.  The extent to which the bill could 
impact such a municipality would depend on the amount of funds 
that were spent by the municipality on capital improvements 
in the disannexed area and the portion which the municipality 
had anticipated repaying through the ad valorem taxes collected 
in the area in question.
