Fiscal Analysis

The bill would amend Subchapter G, Chapter 504, of the Transportation Code to require the Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), in consultation with the Texas Education Agency, to design and issue new specialty license plates to benefit the Foundation School Program. The bill specifies that fees from the plates remaining after the deduction of the DMV's administrative expenses would be deposited to the credit of the Foundation School Fund.  The bill would take effect September 1, 2013.

The bill would take effect September 1, 2013.

Methodology

Based on the information and analysis provided by the DMV, it is assumed approximately 300 sets of the new specialty license plates would be issued in fiscal year 2014 for an annual fee of $30 each: $0.50 of the fee would be retained by the counties; $7.50 deposited to the State Highway Fund for the recovery of the DMV's administrative costs; and $22 would be deposited to the credit of the Foundation School Fund. It is assumed that the number of plate sets issued would increase by 300 in each fiscal year thereafter. Based on the information provided by the DMV, it is assumed any costs associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be absorbed within existing resources.

Local Government Impact

No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
