LEGISLATIVE BUDGET BOARD Austin, Texas FISCAL NOTE, 87TH LEGISLATIVE REGULAR SESSION April 26, 2021 TO: Honorable Terry Canales, Chair, House Committee on Transportation FROM: Jerry McGinty, Director, Legislative Budget Board IN RE: HB1209 by Cortez (Relating to contracts authorizing the use of photographic traffic signal enforcement systems.), As Introduced No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. The bill would amend Chapter 707 of the Transportation Code, relating to the prohibition of photographic traffic signal enforcement systems, to stipulate that a contract that violates Chapter 707 is void. The bill would repeal Sections 7(a) and (b), Chapter 372 (House Bill 1631), Acts of the Eighty-sixth Legislature, Regular Session, 2019, related to a local authority's authorization to operate a photographic traffic signal enforcement system until the expiration date specified in a contract entered into by the local authority for administration of the system as the contract existed on May 7, 2019.
