Honorable John Carona, Chair, Senate Committee on Transportation & Homeland Security
FROM:
John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB3437 by Flores (Relating to an optional fee on registration of a vehicle in certain counties to fund transportation projects.), As Engrossed
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would add Section 502.189 to Chapter 502 of the Transportation Code to authorize imposition of an optional county fee to address mobility needs. The bill would take effect September 1, 2007.
Local Government Impact
Based on the geographic and population criteria for applicability of the bill, it would apply only to Hidalgo 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.
