LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 81ST LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 17, 2009 TO: Honorable John Whitmire, Chair, Senate Committee on Criminal Justice FROM: John S. O'Brien, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:SB2228 by Averitt (Relating to the transfer of certain state property from the Texas Department of Criminal Justice to Coryell County.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would require the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ) to transfer specified property to Coryell County for a purpose that benefits the public interest of the state. If, after the transfer, the property is not used for a purpose that benefits the public interest of the state, ownership of the property would automatically revert to TDCJ. The bill would require TDCJ to transfer the property by an appropriate instrument of transfer. The bill would require Coryell County to pay any transaction fees resulting from the transfer of the property. TDCJ has determined that costs associated with implementing the bill would not be significant. The bill would be effective immediately if the requisite two-thirds vote of all members in each house is met, otherwise the bill would be effective on September 1, 2009. Local Government Impact Because the bill would not have statewide impact on units of local government of the same type or class, no comment from this office is required by the rules of the House/Senate as to its probable fiscal implication on units of local government.
