FISCAL NOTE, 82ND LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION

April 18, 2011

TO:	Honorable Mike Hamilton, Chair, House Committee on Licensing & Administrative Procedures
FROM:	John S O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	HB2929 by Elkins (Relating to authorization to impose an administrative penalty on salvage vehicle dealers.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend Chapter 2302 of the Occupations Code, relating to the regulation of salvage vehicle dealers, to authorize the Department of Motor Vehicles to impose an administrative penalty against a person who violates Chapter 2302 or a rule adopted under that chapter.

Based on the analysis of the Department of Motor Vehicles, it is assumed any costs or duties associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within the agency's existing resources.

Local Government Impact

No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
