LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 85TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION March 29, 2017 TO: Honorable Geanie W. Morrison, Chair, House Committee on Transportation FROM: Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB1790 by Pickett (Relating to revoked disabled parking placards.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend Transportation Code, Section 681.012, to authorize a person from whom a disabled parking placard has been seized and revoked in relation to certain offenses under Chapter 681 of the Transportation Code to submit an application for a new placard. Section 681.012 currently requires the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles (TxDMV), upon request of a person from whom a placard is revoked, to conduct a hearing and determine whether the revocation should continue or rescinded.TxDMV reports that the department currently mails a written settlement agreement to a person upon notification that the person's disabled parking placard has been revoked. A person is authorized to obtain a replacement placard at the local county tax assessor-collector's office upon both parties' acceptance of the terms of the settlement agreement. The bill would eliminate this process and allow a person to reapply for a placard at the county tax assessor-collector's office. Based on the information provided by TxDMV, it is assumed the implementation of the provisions of the bill would not result in a significant fiscal impact to the State. Local Government Impact No significant fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated. Source Agencies:608 Department of Motor Vehicles LBB Staff: UP, AG, TG
