House Bill 1937 amends the Local Government Code to revise provisions authorizing a county with a population of less than 45,000 to call an election to create a county assistance district for certain purposes. The bill specifies that the authority applies only to a county that does not contain any part of a municipality that, before the election is called, created a development corporation or imposed a certain sales and use tax. It adds the promotion of economic development and tourism to the purposes for which a district may be created.
