The Comptroller of Public Accounts and the Texas Department of Transportation indicated no fiscal impact is anticipated. The Texas Legislative Council indicated that any costs associated with the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within the agency's existing resources; therefore, no significant fiscal impact is anticipated.
