FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION

April 30, 2009

TO:	Honorable Joseph Pickett, Chair, House Committee on Transportation
FROM:	John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	HB3500 by Dunnam (Relating to the issuance of specialized license plates for municipal officials.), Committee Report 1st House, As Amended

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend the Transportation Code to require the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to issue specialty license plates for elected members of the governing body of a municipality. The bill authorizes the issuance of three sets of the specialty license plates per person.

Based on the analysis of TxDOT, it is assumed any costs or duties associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within existing resources.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
