LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 83RD LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION February 11, 2013 TO: Honorable John Carona, Chair, Senate Committee on Business & Commerce FROM: Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:SB289 by Carona (Relating to the approval requirement for a rental-purchase agreement that includes a loss damage waiver provision.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
