as described by Section 3 of the Act creating this chapter.
(b) The board may redraw the single-member director
precincts in a manner that is reasonable and equitable:
(1) after any change in the boundaries of the
authority; or
(2) by a resolution redrawing the director precincts

(a) The governing bodies of the districts and municipalities
located within each director precinct jointly shall appoint one
director to represent the precinct by a vote conducted as provided
by this section.
(b) If a district or municipality is located within two or

for that director precinct. Each district or municipality shall
submit the name of its candidate, if any, to the presiding officer
of the authority by February 15 of that year. If by February 15 of

director for a director precinct, the board may declare the
unopposed candidate elected and may cancel the director appointment
procedures generally required by this section for that position.
If more than one candidate's name is submitted for the position of
director for a director precinct, before March 15 of that year the
board shall prepare, for the director precinct or precincts from
which a director is being appointed, a ballot listing all of the
candidates for that director precinct and shall provide a copy of
the appropriate ballot to the presiding officer of the governing
body of each district or municipality located within the director
precinct from which a director is being appointed.
(f) An individual may not be listed as a candidate on the
ballot for more than one director position. If a candidate is
nominated for more than one director position, the candidate must
choose to be on the ballot for only one director position.
(g) The governing body of each district or municipality
shall determine its votes for director by resolution and submit
them to the presiding officer of the authority before May 1 of the
appropriate even-numbered year. In casting its votes for director,
the governing body of each district or municipality may vote for
only one candidate on the ballot for the director precinct in which
the district or municipality is located. For each director
precinct from which a director is being appointed, the board shall
count the votes, declare elected the candidate who received the
greatest number of votes from districts and municipalities located
within that director precinct, and submit the results before May 15
of that year to the governing body of each district or municipality
within that director precinct.
(h) The board may adopt rules regarding:

those specified by Sections 8813.056(e) and (g), but the date for
the board's submission of the voting results to each district and
municipality may not be later than the 120th day after the date the
vacancy occurs.
Sec. 8813.058. MEETINGS AND ACTIONS OF BOARD. (a) The
board may meet as many times each year as the board considers
appropriate.

(a) The authority may establish fees, user fees, rates, and
charges and classifications of payers of fees and rates as
necessary to enable the authority to fulfill the authority's
purposes and regulatory functions provided by this chapter. The
authority may impose fees, user fees, rates, and charges on any
person within the authority.
(b) The authority may charge the owner of a well located
within the authority's boundaries a fee or user fee according to the
amount of water pumped from the well. If ownership of a well

imposed by the authority under this subsection, and any related
penalties and interest, for water pumped from that well before the
change in well ownership.
(c) The board shall make reasonable efforts to send
districts and municipalities written notice of the date, time, and
location of the meeting at which the board intends to adopt a
proposed charge under Subsection (b) and the amount of the proposed
charge. The board's failure to comply with this subsection does not
invalidate a charge adopted by the board under Subsection (b).
(d) For wells located in Harris County or Fort Bend County,
the board shall exempt from the charge under Subsection (b) classes
of wells that are not subject to any groundwater reduction
requirement imposed by the Harris-Galveston Coastal Subsidence
District or the Fort Bend Subsidence District, as applicable. If
any of those classes of wells become subject to a groundwater

(e) For purposes of Subsection (d), a well is subject to a
groundwater reduction requirement if the applicable subsidence
district has adopted or adopts a requirement or rule that
groundwater withdrawals from the well, or from the well and other
wells collectively, be reduced, including a groundwater reduction
that is not required until a future date.

reduction plan;
(5) accomplish the purposes of this chapter, including
making available alternative water supplies;

Sec. 8813.104. PURCHASE OF WATER FROM ANOTHER ENTITY.
(a) If the authority purchases water from another entity for
resale to local governments, the authority shall use its best
efforts in negotiating with the entity to determine the amount of
capital costs included in any rates or charges paid by the
authority. The authority shall determine the amount of expected
capital costs of its own system.
(b) The authority shall provide each district or
municipality within its boundaries information regarding the share
of the capital costs to be paid by the district or municipality, as
determined by the authority, and shall provide each district or
municipality the opportunity, in a manner and by a procedure
determined by the authority, to fund its share of the capital costs
with proceeds from the sale of bonds or fees and charges collected
by the districts or municipalities. A district or municipality may
use any lawful source of revenue, including bond funds, to pay any
sums due to the authority.
(c) The authority may adopt a procedure by which a district
or municipality may receive a credit from the authority. The board
may adopt any other procedure necessary to accomplish the goals of
this section.
(d) In complying with this section, the authority may use
any reasonable basis to calculate from time to time the share of the
capital costs of a district or municipality. The authority may
calculate the shares of the capital costs based on the amount of
water used within the authority by the district or municipality
during the calendar year preceding the year in which the
calculation is made.
(e) This section or any failure to comply with this section
does not limit or impede the authority's ability to issue bonds or
notes or invalidate any fees, user fees, charges, rates, or special
assessments imposed by the authority.
Sec. 8813.105. ASSESSMENTS. (a) The board may undertake
improvement projects and services that confer a special benefit on
all or a definable part of the authority. The board may impose
special assessments on property in that area, including property of
a local government, based on the benefit conferred by the
improvement project or services, to pay all or part of the cost of
the project and services. The board may provide improvements and
services to an area outside the boundaries of the authority if the
board determines that there is a benefit to the authority. The
authority may finance with special assessments any improvement
project or service authorized by this chapter or any other
applicable law.
(b) Services or improvement projects may be financed with
special assessments under this chapter only after the board holds a
public hearing on the advisability of the improvements and services
and the proposed assessments.

Harris-Galveston Coastal Subsidence District or Fort Bend
Subsidence District, as applicable, and whose well is subject to a
groundwater reduction requirement imposed by that district. The
Harris-Galveston Coastal Subsidence District and Fort Bend
Subsidence District shall provide to the authority a list of
persons who hold such a permit.
(f) The board may establish rules regarding procedures for a
hearing. A hearing on the services or improvement project, whether
conducted by the board or a hearings examiner, may be adjourned from
time to time. At the conclusion of a hearing conducted by the
board, the board shall make written findings and conclusions
relating to the advisability of the improvement project or
services, the nature of the improvement project or services, the
estimated cost, and the area benefited. If the board appoints a
hearings examiner to conduct the hearing, after conclusion of the
hearing, the hearings examiner shall file with the board a written
report of the examiner's findings and conclusions.
(g) At a hearing on proposed assessments, on adjournment of
the hearing, or after consideration of the hearings examiner's
report, the board shall hear and rule on all objections to each
proposed assessment. The board may amend proposed assessments for
any property. After the board hears and takes action on those
objections, the board, by order:
(1) shall impose the assessments as special
assessments on the property;
(2) shall specify the method of payment of the
assessments; and
(3) may provide that those assessments, including
interest, be paid in periodic installments.
(h) Periodic installments must be in amounts sufficient to
meet annual costs for services and improvements as provided by

retire the indebtedness or pay for the services to be rendered. The
board may provide interest charges or penalties for failure to make
timely payment and may impose an amount to cover delinquencies and
expenses of collection.
(i) If assessments are imposed for more than one service or
improvement project, the board may provide that assessments
collected for one service or improvement project may be borrowed to
be used for another service or improvement project. The board shall
establish a procedure for the distribution or use of any
assessments in excess of those necessary to finance the services or
improvement project for which those assessments were collected.
(j) The board shall apportion the cost of an improvement
project or services to be assessed against the property in the
authority according to the special benefits that accrue to the
property because of the improvement project or services. The board
may assess the cost only according to the number of gallons of
groundwater pumped from wells within the authority that are subject
to a groundwater reduction requirement imposed by the
Harris-Galveston Coastal Subsidence District or Fort Bend
Subsidence District, as applicable. The board may not assess the
cost according to groundwater pumped from:
(1) a well with a casing diameter of less than five
inches that serves only a single-family dwelling; or
(2) a well that is regulated by Chapter 27, Water Code.
(k) The area of the authority to be assessed according to
the findings of the board may be the entire authority or any part of
the authority and may be less than the area proposed in the notice
of the hearing.
