FISCAL NOTE, 84TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
 
April 21, 2015

TO:
Honorable Jim Keffer, Chair, House Committee on Natural Resources
 
FROM:
Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
 
IN RE:
HB2985 by Israel (Relating to requiring the election of directors of certain districts to be held on a uniform election date.), As Introduced

No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

The bill would amend the Election Code to require the election of board directors of certain water districts to be held on a uniform election date.

Local Government Impact

Certain water districts may experience increased election costs due to a higher voter turnout on the November uniform election date. These costs may be outweighed by savings associated with sharing joint election costs with other local governments.
