LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION March 13, 2009 TO: Honorable Yvonne Davis, Chair, House Committee on Urban Affairs FROM: John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB2113 by Walle (Relating to the holidays for members of fire and police departments in certain municipalities.), As Introduced No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend Chapter 142, Local Government Code, to provide that a fire fighter or a police officer employed by a department that has adopted the chapter are entitled to a paid day off from working on September 11 of each year if certain requirements are met. Local Government Impact No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated from establishing administrative policies to implement the provisions of the bill. Because the day off on September 11 would be in lieu of other paid leave time and would not be approved if there was not sufficient staffing available, there would not be a cost related to salaries.
