| TO: | Honorable Yvonne Davis, Chair, House Committee on Urban Affairs |
| FROM: | John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board |
| IN RE: | HB722 by Howard, Donna (Relating to the authority of certain municipalities to regulate the location of facilities to supply drinking water.), As Introduced |
The bill would amend the Local Government Code to require a regional utility authority that plans to construct a facility to supply drinking water that will be located in the corporate boundaries of a municipality that is not participating in the regional utility authority to meet certain criteria prior to constructing the facility.
The added costs would vary by affected authority, but are not anticipated to be significant in proportion to the authority's overall budget.
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.| Source Agencies: |
