LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 15, 2009 TO: Honorable Yvonne Davis, Chair, House Committee on Urban Affairs FROM: John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB1384 by Davis, Yvonne (Relating to authorizing certain nature centers to charge admission fees.), Committee Report 1st House, As Amended No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would add Chapter 337 to Title 10 of the Local Government Code to authorize the board of directors of a not-for-profit entity that maintains county and municipal park property as a specifically defined nature center under a formal agreement in a county with a population of 1.8 million or more to charge an admission fee for entrance onto or use of the property used as a nature center. Local Government Impact Only Dallas and Harris counties meet the population criteria and only Dallas County currently has an applicable nature center. 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.
