LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION March 27, 2009 TO: Honorable Pete Gallego, Chair, House Committee on Criminal Jurisprudence FROM: John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB960 by Anchia (Relating to providing municipalities and counties access to criminal history record information for sexually oriented business license applicants.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend the Government Code to allow municipalities and counties that license or permit sexually-oriented businesses to access criminal history record information about an owner or operator of a sexually-oriented business. Municipalities and counties are presently able to complete a name-based state level criminal history background check, or to fingerprint the owner or operator and complete a state/national level criminal history background check. The Department of Public Safety indicates that it would be able to absorb within its current resources the costs of an additional fingerprinting demand that could result from the passage of this bill. Local Government Impact No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
