FISCAL NOTE, 80TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION

April 14, 2007

TO:	Honorable Royce West, Chair, Senate Committee on Intergovernmental Relations
FROM:	John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	SB1630 by Wentworth (Relating to limitations on the compensation of county auditors for certain counties.), As Introduced

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend Section 152.032, Local Government Code, to add a certain county to those counties in which the amount of the compensation and allowances of a county auditor may be set in an amount that exceeds the limit established in Subsection (a) if approved by the county commissioners court.

Local Government Impact

Based on the criteria of the bill and the 2000 U.S. Census, the bill would add only Comal County to those counties that may exceed the established limit on pay to a county auditor.

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.
