FISCAL NOTE, 83RD LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
February 19, 2013

TO:
Honorable Byron Cook, Chair, House Committee on State Affairs
 
FROM:
Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB408 by King, Phil (Relating to the number of members of the Texas Historical Commission.), As Introduced

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend the Government Code to reduce the number of commission members on the Texas Historical Commission from 17 to nine members. The bill could result in a minimal savings to the agency as a result of fewer travel reimbursement payments. However, it is anticipated that any additional savings associated with implementation of the bill would not be significant.
 
The bill would take effect immediately if it receives a vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to each house.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
