Senate Bill 1461 |
Senate Author: Carona |
|
Effective: 6-14-13 |
House Sponsor: Harper-Brown |
Previous law authorized a municipality that is not part of a regional transportation authority to be added to the territory of such an authority if certain conditions are fulfilled. Senate Bill 1461 amends the Transportation Code to change those conditions and to instead authorize a municipality that does not have territory that is part of such an authority to be added to the territory of an authority if the amended conditions are fulfilled. The bill also redefines "special sales and use tax," for purposes of provisions relating to adding a municipality to a regional transportation authority, as a sales and use tax levied by a municipality that is in excess of one percent.
