IN RE:
SB379 by Perry (Relating to the penalty for noncompliance with certain eminent domain reporting requirements.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend Chapter 2206 of the Government Code to revise the penalty for noncompliance of reporting of certain information to the Comptroller for the Comptroller's eminent domain database. As Section 2206.155 is currently written, the penalty is set at $1,000; the bill would make the penalty as an amount up to $1,000. It is currently unknown how many entities are liable for the penalty. However, no significant fiscal impact is anticipated from implementation of the bill's provisions.
Local Government Impact
According to the Texas Municipal League, the fiscal impact to municipalities is not anticipated to be significant.
