FISCAL NOTE, 78TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
April 24, 2003

TO:
Honorable Florence Shapiro, Chair, Senate Committee on Education
 
FROM:
John Keel, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB1022 by Eissler (Relating to employment status and contract entitlements of public school educators who fail to obtain appropriate certification.), Committee Report 2nd House, As Amended

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated, according to the Texas Education Agency.


Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated. The bill authorizes a range of actions that can be taken by a local board of trustees at the time a contract becomes void.  Each type of action would carry a different type of potential for costs to be incurred or reduced that would largely be dependent upon local circumstances and would vary considerably from district to district and decision to decision.  Overall on a statewide basis, this bill would likely have little or no net fiscal impact on school district operations.
