The bill would require the DMV to adopt rules to implement the bill and set the permit fee in an amount not to exceed $7,000, of which 90 percent would be deposited to the State Highway Fund (SHF) and 10 percent to the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV) Fund. The bill would take effect on January 1, 2016. Methodology Based on the analysis provided by the DMV, it is assumed 500 of the new permits would be issued beginning in fiscal year 2015 at a fee of $4,000 per annual permit (to be set by DMV rule) and the number of permits and associated fee revenue would increase by approximately 5.8 percent each fiscal year. Ninety percent of the fee revenue would be deposited to the SHF ($1.8 million gain in fiscal year 2016) and 10 percent to the TxDMV Fund ($200,000 gain in fiscal year 2016).Note: This legislation would do one or more of the following: create or recreate a dedicated account in the General Revenue Fund, create or recreate a special or trust fund either with or outside of the Treasury, or create a dedicated revenue source. The fund, account, or revenue dedication included in this bill would be subject to funds consolidation review by the current Legislature. Local Government Impact No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
