The bill states that the program is subject to available funding. For the purpose of this analysis, it is anticipated that $800,000 would be provided in grant funding in each fiscal biennium (or $400,000 in each fiscal year).
According to TDA, the agency would need an additional part-time (0.5) FTE to assist in the administration of this program. The annual salary for this position would be $21,276, with estimated annual benefits costs of $6,327. Recurring travel costs related to the position's grant management responsibilities are estimated to be $1,307 each fiscal year. The estimate in the table above also includes first-year rulemaking costs, which according to TDA are estimated to be $33,997 in fiscal year 2014 only.
