Senate Bill 374 amends the Local Government Code to authorize a municipality that is annexing an area under specified annexation provisions to also annex with the area the right‑of‑way of a street, highway, alley, or other public way or of a railway line, spur, or roadbed, that is contiguous and runs parallel to the municipality's boundaries and is contiguous to the area being annexed. The municipality may annex the right‑of‑way only if the municipality provides applicable notice of the annexation to the right‑of‑way's owner and the owner does not timely object to the annexation.
