TO:
Honorable Tommy Williams, Chair, Senate Committee on Transportation & Homeland Security
 
FROM:
John S O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
SB922 by Deuell (Relating to the designation of a segment of State Highway 243 in Van Zandt County as the Veterans Memorial Parkway.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would require the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) to design, construct, and erect highway markers designating a segment of State Highway 243 as the Veterans Memorial Parkway, subject to Section 225.021 (c), Transportation Code.
 
Section 225.021 (c) of the Transportation Code, specifies that TxDOT is not required to design, construct, or erect the marker unless a grant or donation of funds is made to the department to cover the cost. Based on the analysis provided by TxDOT, it is assumed any duties associated with the implementation of 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.
