LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD
Austin, Texas
FISCAL NOTE, 87TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
April 8, 2021
TO:
Honorable James White, Chair, House Committee on Homeland Security & Public Safety
FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB1262 by Bowers (Relating to training for certain peace officers regarding trauma-informed techniques to facilitate interactions with homeless individuals.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
It is assumed that the costs associated with the bill's provisions relating to training for certain peace officers regarding trauma-informed techniques to facilitate interactions with homeless individuals could be absorbed using existing resources. The Texas Commission on Law Enforcement indicates costs my include additional staff time and resources to research and contact local jurisdictions regarding the size of the homeless population, as well as software development to ensure compliance.
This analysis assumes the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant impact on state correctional populations or on the demand for state correctional resources.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
