Subsequent directors shall be nominated by the 43-6 board to places on the board for appointment by the Commissioners 43-7 Court of the county, from names submitted by the owners of land 43-8 within the district. If the commissioners court is not satisfied 43-9 with one or more of the recommendations submitted by the board, the 43-10 board, on the request of the commissioners court, shall submit to 43-11 the commissioners court additional recommendations. 43-12 (d) Of the initial directors, the directors appointed to 43-13 Places 1, 2, 3, and 4 will resign on or before 30 days subsequent 43-14 to the completion of the purchase program in the district, and the 43-15 number of directors constituting the board shall increase from 43-16 seven to eleven. 43-17 (e) To qualify to serve a director a person must be at least 43-18 18 years old and one or more of the following: (i) a resident of 43-19 the district; (ii) an owner of property in the district; (iii) an 43-20 agent, employee, lessee, or tenant of an owner of property in the 43-21 district. The place of a director who at any time fails to meet 43-22 the requirements for service as a director set forth in this 43-23 subsection shall be considered vacant and such director shall be 43-24 replaced by the board within 60 days of the board becoming aware of 43-25 such failure, except for the initial board of directors which shall 44-1 remain intact until such time as the purchase program in the 44-2 district has been completed. 44-3 (e) A vacancy in the office of director shall be filled by 44-4 appointment of the remaining members of the board, provided that 44-5 there are at least three members of the board remaining, and if 44-6 less than three members remain on the board shall be filled by 44-7 appointment of the Commissioners Court of the county. 44-8 (f) The commissioners court of the county may remove a 44-9 director for misconduct or failure to carry out his duties upon 44-10 petition by a majority of the remaining directors. 44-11 (g) As soon as practicable after a director is appointed, he 44-12 shall execute a bond for $10,000 payable to the district and 44-13 conditioned on the faithful performance of his duties. All bonds 44-14 of the directors shall be approved by the board, and each director 44-15 shall take the oath of office prescribed by the constitution for 44-16 public officers. The bond and oath shall be filed with the 44-17 district and retained in its records. 44-18 (h) After the directors have been appointed and have 44-19 qualified by executing a bond and taking the proper oath, they 44-20 shall organize by electing a president, a vice-president, a 44-21 secretary, and any other officers as in the judgment of the board 44-22 are considered necessary. 44-23 (i) Four directors shall constitute a quorum for the 44-24 consideration of matters pertaining to the purposes of the 44-25 district, and a concurrence of four directors shall be required for 45-1 any official action of the district. 45-2 (j) The board is governed by Chapter 375, Local Government 45-3 Code, to the extent that such chapter does not conflict with this 45-4 Act, and specifically excluding Section 375.169 of such Chapter. A 45-5 person who qualifies to serve on the board is qualified to serve as 45-6 a director and participate in all votes pertaining to the business 45-7 of the district regardless of any other statutory provision to the 45-8 contrary. A director who has a beneficial interest in a business 45-9 entity that will receive a pecuniary benefit from an action of the 45-10 board may participate in discussion and vote on that action if a 45-11 majority of the board has a similar interest in the same action or 45-12 if all other similar business entities in the district will receive 45-13 a similar pecuniary benefit.

In exercising their powers, the board shall follow the 47-15 procedures in Chapter 211, Local Government Code, applicable to a 47-16 general law municipality, including the provisions applicable to 47-17 the adoption of a comprehensive plan and the appointment of a 47-18 zoning commission and a board of adjustment. 47-19 (2) No restrictions on the use of property within the 47-20 district will be effective, until 30 days after the governing body 47-21 of the city certifies that each owner of land which the board 47-22 determines is then used for a nonconforming use has received an 47-23 offer for purchase of the affected estate of the land pursuant to 47-24 Subsection (c) of this section from the board. 47-25 (3) If the board is ultimately dissolved by the city, 48-1 or otherwise under Section 17 hereof, then such restrictions shall 48-2 be treated as if they has been adopted by the governing body of the 48-3 city. 48-4 (4) After initial adoption of zoning restrictions and 48-5 a comprehensive plan by the board, no additional changes to the 48-6 plan or other restrictions of uses of property within the district 48-7 shall be imposed without the consent of the governing body of the 48-8 city. 48-9 (c) (1) After adoption of zoning restrictions and a 48-10 comprehensive plan by the board, the district will acquire any real 48-11 property, including improvements thereon, which are used for 48-12 purposes that are nonconforming to the uses permitted by the 48-13 district's zoning regulations or comprehensive plan, and may 48-14 acquire any personal property which is currently being used or 48-15 which may in the future be used for purposes that are nonconforming 48-16 to the uses permitted by the district's zoning regulations and 48-17 comprehensive plan. The district may hold, improve, clear, or 48-18 otherwise prepare the property so acquired for redevelopment or 48-19 development, mortgage or otherwise encumber or dispose of or sell 48-20 the property, insure or provide for the insurance of the property, 48-21 and enter into any other contracts or agreements with respect to 48-22 such property. To the extent the district has funds available for 48-23 such purpose, the district shall acquire nonconforming residential 48-24 property and, after acquisition of such nonconforming residential 48-25 property, may acquire at the owners request nonconforming 49-1 nonresidential property or the property held for future conforming 49-2 or nonconforming uses. The district may use the proceeds of its 49-3 bonds to carry out the purposes of this Act. 49-4 (2) Property purchased pursuant to this Subsection (c) 49-5 shall be purchased by application of a formula or formulas to be 49-6 established by the board prior to confirmation of the district's 49-7 creation, which formula or formulas must be on file in the City 49-8 Hall of the city, during a period commencing 30 days prior to the 49-9 confirmation of the district's creation, and which formula or 49-10 formulas shall be confirmed as part of the confirmation of the 49-11 district's creation. To establish the purchase price for property 49-12 within the district, the formula or formulas adopted by the board 49-13 may include such elements as the board determines, including the 49-14 type and estate of land and current use of the property, the 49-15 replacement cost of houses, mobile homes, or businesses, the 49-16 replacement costs of barns, carports, sheds, pump houses, or other 49-17 outbuildings, an allowance for the replacement of pools, spas, 49-18 decks, patios, ornamental fencing, specimen trees, or other 49-19 amenities, moving costs, including moving costs for mobile homes, 49-20 utility connection fees, and disruption or relocation costs for 49-21 residents or businesses. 49-22 (3) In addition to the purchase price for property, 49-23 the district may pay the relocation costs for single family 49-24 tenants, including tenants with mobile homes, in connection with 49-25 the purchase of rental property.

If property is not currently used for a nonconforming 50-25 use, the board may elect to acquire the right of an owner to use 51-1 property for a nonconforming use. Any landowner whose property is 51-2 conveyed to the district, whether through sale or the exercise of 51-3 the power of eminent domain, shall have the right but not the duty 51-4 to save and except from such conveyance any private roads which 51-5 provide the landowner access to portions of the landowner's 51-6 property which are not conveyed to the district. 51-7 (3) An exercise of the power of eminent domain granted 51-8 by this Section is governed by Chapter 21, of the Texas Property 51-9 Code, except that the district shall not be required to give bond 51-10 for appeal or bond for costs under Sections 21.021(a)(2) and (3) of 51-11 the Texas Property Code in any condemnation suit or other suit to 51-12 which it is a party and shall not be required to deposit more than 51-13 the amount of any award in any suit. 51-14 (4) In the event that the amount of damages due to the 51-15 landowner under Section 21.042 of the Texas Property Code is not 51-16 sufficient to allow a landowner to obtain a reasonably comparable 51-17 replacement dwelling or structure, then under Section 21.046 of the 51-18 Texas Property Code, the district shall pay to the landowner an 51-19 additional amount which, when added to the amount of damages under 51-20 Section 21.042 of the Texas Property Code, will be sufficient to 51-21 allow the landowner to obtain a reasonably comparable replacement 51-22 dwelling or structure. 51-23 (e) (1) The district may adopt regulations governing the 51-24 businesses, whether commercial or industrial, within the boundaries 51-25 of the district and rules to enforce such regulations to the extent 52-1 that the city could otherwise adopt such regulations and rules, but 52-2 any regulations and rules adopted by the district, including 52-3 restrictions or regulations governing zoning, will be uniform in 52-4 application within the boundaries of the district and will 52-5 encourage the use of land within the district for industrial and 52-6 compatible purposes. No regulations within the district, including 52-7 zoning regulations, will affect agricultural uses of property 52-8 within the district. 52-9 (2) The district may adopt regulations that regulate 52-10 the health, safety and general welfare of residents and property 52-11 owners within the district, including land use and zoning 52-12 regulations. If the district adopts regulations and those 52-13 regulations are approved by the governing body of the city by 52-14 ordinance, then the city may not thereafter adopt an ordinance 52-15 regulating the matters regulated by the district. In adopting 52-16 this section, it is the intention of the legislature that only one 52-17 entity be responsible for regulating matters of the district, and 52-18 after regulations are approved by the city, further oversight by 52-19 the city of the matters regulated by the district is duplicative of 52-20 the district's regulatory authority and an unnecessary burden on 52-21 the residents and property owners in the district. 52-22 (f) If the district, in exercising a power conferred by this 52-23 Act, requires a relocation, adjustment, raising, lowering, 52-24 rerouting, or changing the grade of or altering the construction of 52-25 any street, alley, highway, overpass, underpass, road, railroad 53-1 track, bridge, facility or property, electric line, conduit, 53-2 facility or property, telephone or telegraph line, conduit, 53-3 facility or property, gas transmission or distribution pipe, 53-4 pipeline, main, facility or property, water, sanitary sewer or 53-5 storm sewer pipe, pipeline, main, facility or property, cable 53-6 television line, cable, conduit, facility or property, or other 53-7 pipeline or facility or property relating to the pipeline, that 53-8 relocation, adjustment, raising, lowering, rerouting, changing of 53-9 grade, or altering of construction must be accomplished at the sole 53-10 cost and expense of the district, and damages that are suffered by 53-11 owners of the property or facilities shall be borne by the 53-12 district. 53-13 (g) The district shall have no right to permanently close 53-14 any existing public roads or to otherwise impede public access to 53-15 existing public roads, except in connection with temporary closures 53-16 for repair of district facilities. 53-17 (h) Unless specifically set forth herein, nothing in this 53-18 Act shall authorize the district to exercise any regulatory 53-19 authority, including zoning authority, outside of the boundaries of 53-20 the district, and under no circumstances or for any purpose shall 53-21 any area outside of the boundaries of the district be deemed or 53-22 designated as extraterritorial to the district. 53-23 SECTION 9. TORT CLAIMS. The district is a unit of 53-24 government for purposes of Chapter 101, Civil Practice and Remedies 53-25 Code. The operations of the district are essential governmental 54-1 functions for all purposes and not proprietary functions. 54-2 SECTION 10. EXCLUDING TERRITORY. (a) At any time, the 54-3 board may on its own motion call a hearing on the question of the 54-4 exclusion of land from the district as provided in Chapters 49 and 54-5 54 of the Water Code, if the exclusions are practicable, just, or 54-6 desirable. 54-7 (b) The board must call a hearing on the exclusion of land 54-8 or other property from the district on the written petition of any 54-9 landowner or property owner in the district filed with the 54-10 secretary of the board before the issuance of bonds has been 54-11 authorized. 54-12 SECTION 11.
