Relating to the composition of the board of directors of the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association.
HB 2213 changes who serves on the Texas Windstorm Insurance Association (TWIA) board. It requires three board members to be insurance industry representatives actively selling windstorm/hail insurance in coastal counties, all must be Texas residents, and at least one must be a licensed agent (not tied to one company) selling these policies. It also mandates three members to live more than 100 miles from the coast, ensuring inland representation. This directly affects TWIA's decision-making on windstorm insurance rates and coverage, primarily impacting homeowners in coastal Texas who rely on TWIA policies.
