FISCAL NOTE, 82ND LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION

May 1, 2011

TO:	Honorable Larry Phillips, Chair, House Committee on Transportation
FROM:	John S O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:	SB1248 by Lucio (Relating to the designation of a portion of State Highway 499 as the Colonel Bill Card Boulevard.), As Engrossed

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 499 as the Colonel Bill Card Boulevard, subject to Section 225.021 (c), Transportation Code.

 

Section 225.021 (c), 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 of 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.
