Introduction

This publication is intended to provide Texas legislators with a reference document for state-government-fee revenue sources and associated statutes and appropriations riders, contemplating legislators’ discretion to amend those appropriations and statutes and contemplating the impact of such fees on licensees, state service users, and ordinary citizens. The organization of the table generally follows that of the revenue codes in Volume II of the FY 2004/2005 release of the comptroller’s Manual of Accounts, available online at http://www.window.state.tx.us/fm/pubs/cma/04-05/cmav2_2004.pdf. Statutory citations that appear in the manual have been reviewed, and in some cases changed, based on searches of Texas laws and legislation using the PREMISE and TLIS applications available to the legislative branch. Three caveats deserve mention. The fi rst caveat is that the defi nition of “fee” used in this publication differs from that which the comptroller’s offi ce in some cases applies in source/ object 24 (Other Licenses and Fees). The purpose of this publication is to direct legislators to fee amounts and associated statutes. In this publication, the term “fee” is restricted to that which a statute refers to as a “fee,” or to an assessment or charge that the Manual of Accounts refers to as a “fee” and omits fi nes, penalties, court costs, and certain other revenue sources that are in some cases classifi ed as fees in the comptroller’s Texas Annual Cash Report (http://www.window.state.tx.us/fm/pubs/cashrpt/), particularly in the section of that report covering source/object 24 (Other Licenses and Fees). A related caveat derives from the fact that the Manual of Accounts sometimes mixes fees, fi nes, and penalties, as described above, in the same revenue code, and thus includes legal citations for the fi nes and penalties. This publication does not include fi ne and penalty provisions of the law in its statutory citations. Third, the statutory citations in the table refl ect only the legal provisions that defi ne the amount of a fee or how that amount is to be established. The comptroller’s manual often includes other legal citations relating to fee authorization or to the funds or accounts into which fees fl ow. Organizing the table by revenue code facilitates examination of particular fee collections. From the cash reports page on the comptroller’s website (see above), one selects the report year of interest, opens the PDF fi le for that document, and does a PDF-fi le “binoculars” search on the appropriate four-digit revenue code to fi nd annual collections under that revenue code. The Texas Legislative Council plans to update this publication biennially. Suggestions regarding additional information to include in the publication may be forwarded to Debbie Irvine, Director of the Research Division.
