Amend HB 2221 by adding a new appropriately numbered section 
to read as follows:
	SECTION __.  Subchapter D, Chapter 130, Education Code, is 
amended by adding Section 130.0712 to read as follows:
	Sec. 130.0712.  ANNEXATION OF TERRITORY BY ELECTION FOR 
CERTAIN DISTRICTS.  (a)  Notwithstanding any other provision of 
this subchapter, a junior college district that includes within its 
territory all or part of a school district with a student enrollment 
of more than 170,000 may annex territory by election only as 
provided by this section.  The territory to be annexed must be 
located within:
		(1)  the service area of the junior college district; 
or             
		(2)  a municipality or school district that is partly 
located within the junior college district.
	(b)  The governing board of the junior college district may 
order an election on the question of establishing expanded 
boundaries for the junior college district by annexing all or part 
of the territory of a municipality or school district described by 
Subsection (a) if that territory is not currently located in the 
junior college district.  The election shall be held only in the 
territory proposed for annexation.  The order for the election 
must:
		(1)  describe the territory to be annexed; and                         
		(2)  set a date for the election, which must be the next 
uniform election date that is more than 65 days after the date of 
the order and that affords enough time to hold the election in the 
manner provided by law.
	(c)  The governing board shall conduct the election in 
accordance with the Election Code.
	(d)  Any registered voter residing within the territory 
proposed for annexation is entitled to vote at the election.
	(e)  The ballot shall be printed to provide for voting for or 
against the proposition:  "Annexation by __________ (with the blank 
filled in with the name of the junior college district) of the 
following territory for junior college purposes:_________ (with 
the blank filled in with a description of the territory proposed for 
annexation)."
	(f)  The proposition is adopted if approved by a majority of 
the voters voting at the election.  If the proposition is adopted, 
the governing board of the district shall enter an order declaring 
the result of the election and that the territory is annexed for 
junior college purposes.
	(g)  If the proposition is adopted and the governing board is 
elected from single-member districts, the governing board in the 
annexation order entered under Subsection (f) shall assign the new 
territory to one or more of the current single-member districts.  
The governing board shall divide the territory of the expanded 
junior college district into the appropriate number of 
single-member districts before the next election for members of the 
governing board.
	(h)  If the proposition is not adopted, another election to 
annex the same territory may not be held earlier than one year after 
the date of the election in which the proposition is defeated.
	(i)  The annexation of territory to a junior college district 
under this section and any resulting change in the single-member 
districts from which members of the governing board are elected 
does not affect the term of a member of the governing board serving 
on the date the annexation or redistricting takes effect.  The 
governing board shall provide that each member of the governing 
board representing a single-member district who is holding office 
on the date the territory is annexed to the district serves the 
remainder of the member's term and represents a new single-member 
district for that term regardless of whether the member resides in 
the single-member district.
	(j)  If the junior college district annexes under this 
section territory comprising all of a municipality or school 
district, the governing board by order may annex for junior college 
purposes any territory later annexed by or added to the 
municipality or school district.
	(k)  A junior college district may not annex under this 
section territory that is included within the boundaries of another 
junior college district.
