LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 14, 2009 TO: Honorable Patrick M. Rose, Chair, House Committee on Human Services FROM: John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB2039 by Truitt (Relating to the transfer of certain state property from the Department of Aging and Disability Services to certain community mental health and mental retardation centers.), Committee Report 1st House, Substituted No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The Department of Aging and Disability Services (DADS) indicates any cost to implement provisions of the bill would be minimal and can be absorbed within available resources. The Comptroller indicated that DADS currently collects lease payments of $395,000 annually from the properties, and that flow of money would decrease if the properties are transferred. Lease payments are deposited to GR Account 0543Texas Capital Trust. With the transfers, DADS could also realize cost savings as maintenance of the property and structures would no longer be the agency's responsibility. In addition, a transfer of property to a non-state entity would preclude sale of the property by the state and result in a loss of sales revenue that would have otherwise accrued to the state. Local Government Impact No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
