Fiscal Analysis

The bill would amend Chapter 47 of the Business and Commerce code, regarding sexually oriented businesses. The bill would reduce to $3, from the current $5, the amount of the fee that is imposed on each customer for entry into a sexually oriented business. The bill would provide that all revenue from this fee, would be deposited in GR Account 5010 - Sexual Assault Program. The bill would take effect immediately upon enactment, assuming that it received the requisite two-thirds majority votes in both houses of the Legislature. Otherwise, it would take effect September 1, 2009.

Methodology

The impact is based on estimates from the 2010-11 Biennial Revenue Estimate, adjusted for the decrease in the amount of the fee proposed by this bill, and extended through fiscal 2014.  The existing $5 fee was challenged in state district court and ruled unconstitutional. The state is now appealing that decision. For the purposes of this analysis it is assumed current law will continue.
