 1-4           BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:

 1-5           SECTION 1.  Section 151.903, Local Government Code, is

 1-6     amended by adding Subsection (f) to read as follows:

 1-7           (f)  In a county with a chief personnel officer, the

 1-8     commissioners court may designate the chief personnel officer or

 1-9     the county auditor to approve personnel forms.

1-10           SECTION 2.  The importance of this legislation and the

1-11     crowded condition of the calendars in both houses create an

1-12     emergency and an imperative public necessity that the

1-13     constitutional rule requiring bills to be read on three several

1-14     days in each house be suspended, and this rule is hereby suspended,

1-15     and that this Act take effect and be in force from and after its

1-16     passage, and it is so enacted.
