Fiscal Analysis
The bill would amend Occupations Code and Property Code relating to certain real estate brokerage and advertising activities and to certain functions of the Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC), and the authorization of a ground lease with the Texas Facilities Commission (TFC) to construct or maintain a building.Effective September 1, 2019, the bill would reduce the $750,000 that TREC is required to remit to the General Revenue Fund each year by amounts expended each fiscal year to construct or maintain a building in the Capitol Complex, including for repayment of a construction loan, to be developed, constructed, maintained, and operated in conjunction with TFC. This provision would remain in effect until September 1, 2029.The bill would authorize TFC to enter into a ground lease with TREC for the purposes of construction of a building in the Capitol Complex, as specified in the bill.Except as otherwise specified, the bill would take effect September 1, 2017.
Methodology
The Comptroller of Public Accounts (CPA) assumes in its analysis that TREC will enter into a lease with TFC for and begin construction on a building in the Capitol Complex in fiscal year 2020, as authorized by the bill, and that its annual expenditures related to construction and maintenance of the building would exceed $750,000, such that annual revenue to General Revenue would be reduced by $750,000 beginning in fiscal year 2020. Based on the analysis of TFC, duties and responsibilities associated with implementing the provisions of the bill could be accomplished by utilizing existing resources.TREC is a self-directed, semi-independent agency; therefore, any agency costs or savings associated with implementing the provisions of the bill are not considered in this analysis.
Local Government Impact
No fiscal implication to units of local government is anticipated.
