Relating to selection of statewide competition locations by the University Interscholastic League.

Fiscal Notes

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated. 

Bill Analysis

This bill would require the University Interscholastic League (UIL), for each extracurricular activity for which UIL sponsors or sanctions a statewide annual competition, to periodically issue a statewide request for proposals from institutions of higher education and other appropriate entities seeking to host the statewide competition during the year or years specified in the request for proposals.

Additionally, this bill requires a request for proposals to specify the factors that UIL will consider in selecting the host for the statewide competition.

Vote Recommendation Notes

This bill does not have a connection to our liberty principles, therefore we remain neutral.
