LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION March 25, 2009 TO: Honorable Joseph Pickett, Chair, House Committee on Transportation FROM: John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB3760 by Oliveira (Relating to a fee associated with the assignment of a vehicle identification number by the Texas Department of Transportation.), As Introduced No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend the Transportation Code to authorize the auto theft unit of a sheriff's office that conducts an inspection required by the Texas Department of Transportation to impose a $40 fee. The fee would be credited to the county's general fund to defray costs associated with administering the Certificate of Title Act, including administering title hearings. Local Government Impact The revenue gain would vary by county depending on how many inspections are conducted and whether the sheriff's office chooses to impose the $40 fee. As an example, Harris County reports, based on the number of inspections conducted by the sheriff's office in the previous two years, that implementation would result in a revenue gain of $2,160 per year. No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated. Source Agencies: LBB Staff: JOB, KJG, DB
