LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 83RD LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION May 15, 2013 TO: Honorable Dan Patrick, Chair, Senate Committee on Education FROM: Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB217 by Alvarado (Relating to the types of beverages that may be sold to students on public school campuses.), As Engrossed No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would prohibit school districts from selling, in elementary, middle, or junior high schools, beverages with added sweeteners, milk with more than one percent fat, or juices less than 100 percent juice. The limitation would not apply on days that school was not in session; before the beginning of breakfast; after the end of the last instruction period of the school day; or to the sale to a high school student on a school campus collocated with an elementary, middle, or junior high school. The bill has no direct fiscal implications for the Foundation School Program (FSP) or the operations of the Texas Education Agency (TEA). The Texas Department of Agriculture (TDA) anticipates incurring minimal costs related to rulemaking and to distributing updated Texas Public School Nutrition Policy materials to schools. This estimate assumes the agency would be able to implement the provisions of the bill within existing resources. Local Government Impact No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated. There is a potential loss of revenue for some school districts that currently sell beverages that would be prohibited under the provisions of the bill.
