FISCAL NOTE
75th Regular Session
May 9, 1997
TO: Honorable Kenneth Armbrister, Chair IN RE: House Bill No. 3585, As Engrossed
Committee on State Affairs By: Greenberg
Senate
Austin, Texas
FROM: John Keel, Director
In response to your request for a Fiscal Note on HB3585 ( Relating
to authorizing the General Services Commission to convey certain
state-owned property to the City of Austin.) this office has
detemined the following:
Biennial Net Impact to General Revenue Funds by HB3585-As Engrossed
Implementing the provisions of the bill would result in a net
impact of $0 to General Revenue Related Funds through the biennium
ending August 31, 1999.
The bill would make no appropriation but could provide the legal
basis for an appropriation of funds to implement the provisions
of the bill.
Fiscal Analysis
The bill would allow the General Services Commission to sell
state property, located at Robert Mueller Municipal Airport,
to the City of Austin. Proceeds of the sale would be deposited
into the state treasury and could only be used by the General
Services Commission to relocate operations of the State Aircraft
Pooling Board from Robert Mueller Municipal Airport to the Austin
Bergstrom International Airport.
Methodolgy
It is estimated that the gain to general revenue from selling
state property at Robert Mueller Municipal Airport would be
$5 million. It is assumed that the $5 million gain would be
used to relocate the State Aircraft Pooling Board, resulting
in no net impact to the General Revenue Fund.
The probable fiscal implications of implementing the provisions
of the bill during each of the first five years following passage
is estimated as follows:
Five Year Impact:
Fiscal Year Probable Revenue Probable
Gain/(Loss) from Savings/(Cost)

Similar annual fiscal implications would continue as long as
the provisions of the bill are in effect.
The City of Austin anticipates that the estimated purchase price
of $5 million will be adequately funded by the City of Austin
Aviation Department capital fund.
