LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 83RD LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 30, 2013 TO: Honorable Byron Cook, Chair, House Committee on State Affairs FROM: Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB2692 by Crownover (Relating to the authority of certain municipalities to establish an economic development program to promote the construction of small-scale electric generating facilities.), As Introduced No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend Chapter 380 of the Local Government Code to authorize certain municipalities to establish an economic development program to promote the construction of “small-scale electric generating facility,” and would provide procedures regarding the administration of a program. Local Government Impact There would be some costs to an applicable municipality that chose to establish an economic development program to make loans and grant public money; however, the amounts would vary depending on the type of program and the administrative and operational costs.
