Honorable Robert Talton, Chair, House Committee on Urban Affairs
FROM:
John S. O'Brien, Deputy Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB1096 by Edwards (Relating to the regulation of dogs; creating an offense.), As Introduced
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would apply to a municipality with a population of 1.9 million or more. According to the 2000 federal census, only the City of Houston meets that population criteria.
Local Government Impact
Because the bill would not have statewide impact on units of local government of the same type or class, no comment from this office is required by the rules of the House/Senate as to its probable fiscal implication on units of local government.
