Honorable Garnet Coleman, Chair, House Committee on County Affairs
FROM:
Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB1170 by Reynolds (Relating to the authority of certain counties to advertise on personal property owned or leased by the county.), As Introduced
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
This bill would amend the Local Government Code to expand an existing authorization to lease advertising space to another entity to include personal property owner by the county or, with property owner consent, leased by the county. Applies to counties over 550,000 population that border counties with a population of over 3.3 million.
This bill would take effect immediately if it receives a vote of two-thirds of all the members elected to each house. If the bill does not receive the vote necessary for immediate effect, it would take effect September 1, 2017.
Local Government Impact
Because the bill would not have statewide impact on units of local government of the same type or class, no comment from this office is required by the rules of the House/Senate as to its probable fiscal implication on units of local government.
