FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION

March 23, 2009

TO:	Honorable Yvonne Davis, Chair, House Committee on Urban Affairs
FROM:	John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	HB3160 by Davis, Yvonne (Relating to the urban land bank demonstration program in certain municipalities.), As Introduced

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend Chapter 379C, Local Government Code, which applies only to home-rule municipalities with a population of 1.18 million or more and located mostly in a county that has a total area of less than 1,000 square miles.

Local Government Impact

Based on the applicability criteria of Chapter 379C, the 2000 U.S. Census, and geography, the bill appears to apply only to the City of Dallas.

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.
