Amend CSHB 340 as follows:
      (1)  On page 2, lines 1-5, strike all beginning with "The
commissioners" and substitute the following:
The commissioners court shall appoint a jury of view consisting of
five property owners who have no interest in the outcome of the
protest to determine, by a majority vote after a public hearing and
an examination of the county's road maintenance records and other
information, the validity of the county's claim of public interest
in the road.  A county has a valid claim in a road if it provides
written records or other information documenting the county's
continuous maintenance of the road beginning before September 1,
1981.  The determination of the jury of view is binding on the
commissioners court, and the commissioners court shall revise the
proposed county road map accordingly.
      (2)  On page 2, strike lines 24-26 and substitute the
following:
      (e)  The commissioners court may formally adopt the proposed
map, as revised after public comment and a determination by the
jury of view, only at a public meeting held before the 60th day
following the date of the initial public meeting required by
Subsection (b).
      (3)  On page 3, between lines 6 and 7, insert the following:
      (h)  In this section, "continuous maintenance" means grading
or other routine road maintenance beginning before September 1,
1981, and continuing until the date of protest.
      (4)  On page 3, line 14, between "CONTEST." and "A", insert
"(a)".
      (5)  On page 3, between lines 20 and 21, insert the
following:
      (b)  The county has the burden of proving that the county has
continuously maintained, as that term is defined by Section
258.002, the road in question.
      (6)  On page 3, line 21, between "INTEREST." and "The",
insert "(a)".
      (7)  On page 3, after line 27, insert the following:
      (b)  The commissioners court shall include a notice of the
adoption of the county road map with the ad valorem tax statements
for the year after the year in which the county adopts a map under
Section 258.002.  The notice must include a list of all roads in
which the county has claimed a public interest by adoption of the
map, the date of the adoption, and the date on which the statute of
limitations will bar a landowner from filing a suit in district
court to dispute the county's claim.
