Amend SB 898 on third reading by inserting the following
appropriately numbered section and renumbering the subsequent
sections of the bill accordingly:
SECTION __. Section 31.01(a), Tax Code, is amended to read as
follows:
(a) Except as provided by Subsection (f), the assessor for
each taxing until shall prepare and mail a tax bill to each person
in whose name the property is listed on the tax roll and [or] to the
person's authorized agent. The assessor shall mail tax bills by
October 1 or as soon thereafter as practicable. The assessor shall
mail to the state agency or institution the tax bill for any taxable
property owned by the agency or institution. The agency or
institution shall pay the taxes from funds appropriated for payment
of the taxes or, if there are none, from funds appropriated for the
administration of the agency or institution. The exterior of the
tax bill must show the return address of the taxing unit and must
contain, in all capital letters, the words "RETURN SERVICE
REQUESTED," or another appropriate statement directing the United
States Postal Service to return the tax bill if it is not
deliverable as addressed.
