TO: | Honorable Mike Krusee, Chair, House Committee on Transportation |
FROM: | John S. O'Brien, Deputy Director, Legislative Budget Board |
IN RE: | HB988 by Chisum (Relating to the county in which a seller of a motor vehicle may file an application for registration and certificate of title.), As Introduced |
The bill would amend the Transportation Code to require a seller who applies for the registration or a certificate of title for a motor vehicle under Section 501.0234(a)(1) to apply in the county selected by the purchaser. The bill would take effect September 1, 2005.
The requirement to allow the purchaser to determine in which county the application would be filed is not expected to have a fiscal impact on the county tax-assessor collector's offices, as the workload related to these applications varies a certain amount on a regular basis.
