| FROM: | John S. O'Brien, Deputy Director, Legislative Budget Board |
| IN RE: | HJR68 by Villarreal (Proposing a constitutional amendment to permit a county to establish an ad valorem tax freeze on the residence homesteads of certain elderly persons.), As Introduced |
The cost to the state for publication of the resolution is $66,497.
The resolution would propose an amendment to Article VIII of the Texas Constitution to authorize counties to adopt a property tax limitation for persons qualified for the 65-or-over or disabled residence homestead exemptions.
The proposed amendment alone would have no fiscal impact on the state or units of local government. Any fiscal impact would depend on the language in the enabling legislation.
