Enrolled Bill Summary

Legislative Session: 88(R)

Senate Bill 2192

Senate Author:  Hall

Effective:  Vetoed

House Sponsor:  Bell, Keith


            Senate Bill 2192 amends the Water Code to require, before a petition is filed with the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality requesting the creation of a proposed municipal utility district all of which is to be located outside municipal corporate limits, certain notice to be sent to the commissioners court of each county in which the proposed district is to be located.

Governor's Reason for Veto: "While Senate Bill No. 2192 is important, it is simply not as important as cutting property taxes. At this time, the legislature must concentrate on delivering property tax cuts to Texans. This bill can be reconsidered at a future special session only after property tax relief is passed."
