H.B. 3102 78(R)    BILL ANALYSIS


H.B. 3102
By: Garza
County Affairs
Committee Report (Unamended)



BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE 
The Maverick County Hospital District is presently operating state grant
programs such as the Early Childhood Intervention (ECI) and has the
responsibility to prepare annual as well as quarterly reports that will
correspond with their annual budget and that of the state's.  Presently,
the Maverick County Hospital District has a two month disparity between
their current fiscal year and that of the State's fiscal year. 

The purpose of HB 3102 is to have Maverick County Hospital District fiscal
year changed to correspond with the State's fiscal year.  HB 3102 will not
affect anything else within the district as they only operate the ECI
program and their indigent care program. 


RULEMAKING AUTHORITY

It is the committee's opinion that this bill does not expressly grant any
additional rulemaking authority to a state officer, department, agency, or
institution. 

ANALYSIS
Section 1: House Bill 3102 amends Section 12(a), Chapter 172, Acts of the
59th Legislature, Regular Session, 1965 by changing the fiscal year of the
hospital district from July 1 through June 30 to September 1 through
August 31 of the following year.
