FISCAL NOTE, 79TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION

April 13, 2005

TO:	Honorable Jim Keffer, Chair, House Committee on Ways & Means
FROM:	John S. O'Brien, Deputy Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	HJR4 by Flores (Proposing a constitutional amendment authorizing the state to operate video lottery games at racetracks and on Indian lands and authorizing casino gaming in this state.), As Introduced

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated, other than the cost of publication.

The cost to the state for publication of the resolution is $66,497.

The proposed amendment by itself would have no fiscal impact. Any fiscal impact would depend on the enabling legislation and the ensuing agreements between the state and the Indian tribes.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
