A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
AN ACT
relating to a repeal of exemptions from certain truth-in-taxation
provisions for certain conservation and reclamation districts.
BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Sections 49.107(g) and 49.108(f), Water Code,
are repealed.
SECTION 2. (a) This Act takes effect September 1, 2003.
(b) For the 2003 tax year, the change in law made by this Act
applies only to a conservation and reclamation district created
under Section 52, Article III, or Section 59, Article XVI, Texas
Constitution, and governed by Chapter 49, Water Code, that adopts
its tax rate on or after the effective date of this Act. For the
2003 tax year, a district that adopts its tax rate before the
effective date is governed by the law as it existed when the tax
rate was adopted, and that law is continued in effect for that
purpose.
