1-20 COMMITTEE SUBSTITUTE FOR S.B. No. 1453 By: Sims
1-21 A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
1-22 AN ACT
1-23 relating to certain requirements for municipal utility districts
1-24 under Subchapter B, Chapter 54, Water Code.
1-25 BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
1-26 SECTION 1. Section 54.016, Water Code, is amended by adding
1-27 Subsection (i) to read as follows:
1-28 (i) The orders, regulations, ordinances, or other duly
1-29 adopted requirements of a city in effect and applicable to a
1-30 district at the time the original petition for the creation of such
1-31 district is granted by the commission shall remain applicable to
1-32 the district and to all land and development within it until all
1-33 bonds issued by the district have been paid, regardless of the
1-34 annexation of the district or any part of it by the city. A city
1-35 shall, however, impose requirements to the extent specifically
1-36 required by federal or state law, rule, order, or permit
1-37 conditions. A city may not impose any requirement in conflict with
1-38 this section as a condition of its consent, and any provision in
1-39 conflict with this section in any consent or other agreement with
1-40 the city now existing or entered after the effective date of this
1-41 section shall be void and of no effect.
1-42 SECTION 2. The importance of this legislation and the
1-43 crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an
1-44 emergency and an imperative public necessity that the
1-45 constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several
1-46 days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended,
1-47 and that this Act take effect and be in force from and after its
1-48 passage, and it is so enacted.
