TO: | Honorable Glenn Lewis, Chair, House Committee on County Affairs |
FROM: | John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB465 by Talton (Relating to the fee a county may collect for handling court registry funds.), As Introduced |
Hays County collected $3,250 from court registry fees in fiscal year 2002. Assuming a similar number of withdrawals in fiscal 2004 at the proposed 3 percent of the withdrawal not to exceed $30, the county would collect $1,950 in fees in fiscal 2004, a decrease of $1,300.
Counties that process registry funds under Local Government Code 117.055(a) would experience a revenue loss of 2 percent of the amounts usually collected for processing court registry fees. The total reduced revenue amount would vary by county and would depend on the amounts of withdrawals.
