Relating to the fiscal year of certain political subdivisions.
No fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.
HB 2617 would require political subdivisions created after September 1, 2019 with taxing authority to have the same fiscal year as the county in which it is primarily located.
Texas Action supports HB 2617 because it promotes limited government by increasing transparency and making it easier to track expenditures.
