House Bill 3372 adds a new section to the Local Government Code to allow the governing body of a special-law municipality located along or on a navigable stream to change to limited purpose annexation the status of an area previously annexed for general purposes. The change may occur if the area was eligible at any time to be included within the municipal boundaries as a result of annexation along the navigable stream, if the owners of the area petition the governing body for the change in status, and if the governing body includes the area in an industrial district.
