Fiscal Notes

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

Bill Analysis

HB 988 would require the Texas Parks and Wildlife Department (TPWD) to conduct a feasibility study on establishing a visitors center at Hueco Tanks State Park in El Paso County. Additionally, TPWD would have to collaborate with the Ysleta del Sur Pueblo in planning for the visitors center. 

Vote Recommendation Notes

We stand neutral on HB 988 because TPWD would be able to conduct this study within existing resources. Moreover, this legislation does not affect our liberty principles.
