         FROM:  John Keel, Director    
         
In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on HB3324 ( Relating 
to civil service for firefighters and police officers in certain 
municipalities.) this office has detemined the following:
         
         Biennial Net Impact to General Revenue Funds by HB3324-As Introduced
         
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
         

         
 
          
The provisions of Section 1 of the bill relating to providing 
a fire fighter or police officer with copies of each affidavit, 
complaint, or witness statement regarding an investigation of 
a fire fighter or police officer is not anticipated to result 
in significant fiscal implications to municipalities which have 
adopted civil service statutes.

The City of Houston anticipates 
that the provisions of the bill which apply exclusively to that 
city will, in some cases, increase the cost of investigation 
of complaints against fire fighters and police officers.
