SENATE BILL 1211 |
SENATE AUTHOR: Ogden |
EFFECTIVE: 09-01-97 |
HOUSE SPONSOR: Lewis, Ron |
Senate Bill 1211 amends the Local Government Code to allow all county commissioners courts to hold term meetings with the governing body of a political subdivision in the county at the regular meeting place of that political subdivision. Previous law allowed only a commissioners court in a county with a population of 350,000 or more to do so. The act also authorizes a court to hold a term meeting at another meeting place in the county in a building owned by another political subdivision or by the county under certain conditions.
