Amends the Local Planning Technical Assistance Act. Requires the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, through the Opportunity Returns Economic Development Regions established by the Governor, to designate certain units of local government and areas of the State as regional priority funding areas in which State infrastructure resources should be focused. Requires the Department to give preference to certain units of local government and areas of the State. Authorizes the Department to make grants to units of local government designated as, or within areas designated as, regional priority funding areas for the expansion or improvement of public infrastructure. Authorizes a unit of local government designated as, or within an area designated as, a regional priority funding area to impose reasonable impact fees on private developers for public infrastructure outlays and to share in infrastructure maintenance costs. Authorizes the Department to promulgate rules necessary to implement and administer these provisions. Amends the Governor's Office of Management and Budget Act. Provides that if a Department or Agency of the State has received negative interagency review comments or findings, then the Office must review those comments and findings before funding may be authorized for the proposed project or activity. Amends the Regional Planning Commission Act and the Counties Code. Authorizes a county board to establish an Intergovernmental Cooperation Council to develop and recommend various plans for the coordination of land use, transportation, and infrastructure. Authorizes the Council to (i) serve as a county's regional planning commission, (ii) recommend future municipal boundaries, and (iii) recommend an intergovernmental review process for land use and a voluntary, non-binding resolution process for intergovernmental disputes over land use. Provides that a unit of local government in a county that has established a Council and has met other qualifications shall be given priority for State grants and State programs.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Includes ordinances or resolutions that promote mixed-use development among those that are a factor in giving preference to a unit of local government in designation regional priority funding areas. Deletes provisions authorizing a unit of local government within a regional priority funding area to impose reasonable impact fees on private developers for public infrastructure outlays and to share in the maintenance costs for that infrastructure. Provides that the number of county board members appointed to an Intergovernmental Cooperation Council shall not exceed the number of mayors appointed to the Council. Provides that a plan prepared by the Council concerning projected future municipal boundaries must indicate that a municipality is better able and prepared than other municipalities to efficiently and effectively provide public infrastructure (now, urban services).

House Committee Amendment No. 2
Further amends the Local Planning Technical Assistance Act. Provides that the designated regional priority funding areas in which State infrastructure resources should be focused must be certified by the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity to have completed and adopted a comprehensive plan containing certain required elements.

 Fiscal Note (Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity)

Amends the Local Planning Technical Assistance Act.

Provides that a county board may designate an Intergovernmental Cooperation Council as the joint planning commission.

 Fiscal Note (Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity)
 House Bill 6848 with House Amendments 3, 4, and 5 would have a fiscal impact on the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity for costs associated with producing reports, reimbursing committee members for their expenses, administering grants to priority funding areas, and reviewing and commenting on plans and priorities of Intergovernmental Cooperation Councils. Because information on the report documents the number of meetings, the amount of funding provided for grants, and the number of plan and priority documents to be reviewed is not currently known, a reliable cost estimate cannot be made at this time. This fiscal note does not address the impact of this legislation on any other agency.

 Housing Affordability Impact Note (Housing Development Authority)
 No fiscal effect on a single-family residence.

 Housing Affordability Impact Note (Housing Development Authority)
 Assuming the State planning programs cited refer to those providing direct funding to regional or local planning efforts, House Bill 6848, as amended by House Amendments 3, 4, and 5, will have no fiscal impact on the costs of constructing, purchasing, owning, or selling a single family residence.
