John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
SB1430 by Van de Putte (Relating to designation of certain customer bill payment assistance program costs as an expense of operation that is a first lien against revenue securing certain public securities or obligations.), As Engrossed
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would apply to a municipality with a population of one million or more. Based on the 2000 U.S. Census, the provisions of the bill would apply only to the municipalities of Dallas, Houston, and San Antonio.
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.
