LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD
Austin, Texas
FISCAL NOTE, 87TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION
April 19, 2021
TO:
Honorable Chris Paddie, Chair, House Committee on State Affairs
FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB4420 by Krause (Relating to a study and analysis by the comptroller on delivery methods used for certain projects of the Texas Department of Transportation and the Texas Water Development Board.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would require the Comptroller, in conjunction with the Water Development Board (TWDB) and Department of Transportation (TxDOT), to conduct a study on the feasibility of public-private partnerships related to state water plan projects and road projects with an estimated project value over $1 billion. The Comptroller would be required to submit a report of the study, including any recommendations, to the governor, lieutenant governor, speaker of the house of representatives, and presiding officer of each standing committee of the legislature with jurisdiction over transportation and water matters by September 1, 2022.
The Comptroller of Public Accounts and the Water Development Board have indicated that the bill's provisions could be absorbed within existing resources. Additionally, this analysis assumes that costs associated with the bill could be absorbed by the Department of Transportation within existing resources.
Local Government Impact
No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
