Honorable Kevin Bailey, Chair, House Committee on Urban Affairs
FROM:
John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB1079 by Naishtat (Relating to the conditions of employment for emergency medical services personnel employed by certain municipalities.), As Introduced
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would establish local control of emergency medical services personnel employment matters in a municipality with a population over 460,000 that operates under a city manager form of government and employs emergency medical services staff in a department other than the fire department. The criteria of the bill would apply only to the City of Austin.
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.
