LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 85TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 9, 2017 TO: Honorable Garnet Coleman, Chair, House Committee on County Affairs FROM: Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE:HB41 by White (Relating to the sale of fireworks on and before the Juneteenth holiday.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend the Occupations Code and Local Government Code to allow the sale of fireworks beginning June 14th ending at midnight on June 19th to provide for a Juneteenth fireworks season.
