O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB1810 by Pickett (Relating to the purposes and designation of a transportation reinvestment zone.), As Introduced No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend Chapter 222 of the Transportation Code regarding use of taxes collected on property in a municipal transportation reinvestment zone and in a county transportation zone and deposited into a tax increment account.
