Senate Bill 1812 amends the Government Code to require the comptroller of public accounts to create and make accessible on a website an eminent domain database containing information regarding public and private entities, including common carriers, authorized by the state by a general or special law to exercise the power of eminent domain. The bill requires each applicable entity to report to the comptroller certain information as prescribed by the bill, provides for civil penalties for an entity's noncompliance with that reporting requirement, and authorizes the attorney general to sue to collect a civil penalty.
