Ursula Parks, Director, Legislative Budget Board
IN RE:
HB1982 by Murphy (Relating to the authority of counties to nominate projects in the extraterritorial jurisdictions of certain municipalities for designation as enterprise projects.), As Introduced
No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
The bill would amend Section 2303.004 of the Government Code to authorize the governing body of a county to nominate an enterprise project or activity of a qualified business that is located in the county and in the extraterritorial jurisdiction of a municipality primarily located in another county. The county would be authorized to use the maximum number of designations permitted under Section 2303.406 (d) within the territory during any biennium.
Although the provisions of the bill could increase the number of enterprise project designations that could be made within the extraterritorial jurisdictions of certain municipalities, the total number of designations that could be made among municipalities and counties combined would not be increased.
According to the Office of the Governor, no fiscal implication is anticipated.
According to the Comptroller of Public Accounts, no significant fiscal impact is anticipated.
Local Government Impact
The fiscal impact would vary depending on whether a county chose to use the maximum number of designations, but it is not anticipated to be significant.
