Amend CSHB 2577 by inserting the following appropriately
numbered sections and by renumbering the subsequent sections of the
bill accordingly:
      SECTION __.  Section 395.016, Local Government Code, is
amended by adding Subsection (g) to read as follows:
      (g)  Notwithstanding Subsections (a)-(e) and Section 395.017,
the political subdivision may reduce or waive an impact fee for any
service unit that would qualify as affordable housing under 42
U.S.C. Section 12745, as amended, once the service unit is
constructed.  If affordable housing as defined by 42 U.S.C. Section
12745, as amended, is not constructed, the political subdivision
may reverse its decision to waive or reduce the impact fee, and the
political subdivision may assess an impact fee at any time during
the development approval or building process or after the building
process if an impact fee was not already assessed.
      SECTION __.  Section 395.016(g), Local Government Code, as
added by this Act, applies to any assessed or unassessed impact fee
that is not collected before the effective date of this Act. An
impact fee that is collected before the effective date of this Act
is governed by the law in effect on the day it was collected, and
the former law is continued in effect for that purpose.
