      SECTION ____.  MUNICIPALITY'S OPTION TO CHOOSE DISTRICT. (a)
If any part of a municipality, a part of which is included within
the boundaries of the district, is included within the boundaries
of one or more other  groundwater conservation districts created by
special Act of the 77th Legislature, Regular Session, 2001, and
confirmed at a subsequent election called for the purpose, the
municipality, not later than August 31, 2004, at an election called
for the purpose, may vote to choose the one groundwater
conservation district of which it will be a part.
      (b)  If, after a municipality has held an election authorized
by Subsection (a), another groundwater conservation district
created by special Act of the 77th Legislature, Regular Session,
2001, that includes any part of the municipality is confirmed at an
election called for the purpose and if the district of which the
municipality has chosen to be a part has not issued bonds secured
by ad valorem taxes on any land within the boundaries of the
municipality, the municipality may hold another election under this
section to choose whether to remain within the groundwater
conservation district of which it has chosen to be a part or to
separate from that district and become part of the newly confirmed

election under this section, regardless of the number of previous
elections under this section, at any time a district described by

      (d)  This section and the results of an election held under
this section prevail over the provisions of any other Act of the
77th Legislature, Regular Session, 2001, regardless of the relative
dates on which this Act and the other Act may be enacted and become
law.
