LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD
Austin, Texas
 
FISCAL NOTE, 80TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
May 16, 2007

TO:
Honorable Royce West, Chair, Senate Committee on Intergovernmental Relations
 
FROM:
John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB2917 by Macias (Relating to limitations on the compensation of county auditors for certain counties.), As Engrossed

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend Section 152.032(d), Local Government Code, to add another population bracket for identifying in which counties the amount of compensation for a county auditor could be set in an amount that exceeds the limit established in Section 152.032(a).

The bill would take effect immediately if it were to receive the required two-thirds vote in each house; otherwise, it would take effect September 1, 2007.


Local Government Impact

Based on the 2000 U.S. Census, the only county that would be added by the population bracket would be Comal County.

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.
