Honorable Morgan Meyer, Chair, House Committee on Ways & Means
FROM:
Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HJR102 by Gervin-Hawkins (Proposing a constitutional amendment to authorize the legislature to provide for an exemption from ad valorem taxation of the amount of the market value of residential real property that arises from the installation in the property of certain energy efficiency-related improvements.), As Introduced
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated, other than the cost of publication.
The cost to the state for publication of the resolution is $191,689.
The resolution would propose an amendment to Article VIII of the Texas Constitution to permit the Legislature by general law to define and exempt from property tax the portion of the market value of real property that arises from the installation in the property of certain energy efficiency-related improvements.
Adoption of the proposed constitutional amendment alone would have no fiscal impact on the state or units of local government. Any fiscal impact would depend on the corresponding enabling legislation (HB 1483).
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
