HB 2268 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the authority of the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality to create certain special districts.

HB 2268 sets a specific expiration date for the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality's (TCEQ) authority to create certain special districts. The bill states that TCEQ's power to establish or confirm municipal management districts, utility districts, water improvement districts, master districts, or subdistricts expires on September 1, 2025. It does not affect existing districts created before that date or pending petitions filed before the bill's effective date. This is a procedural change limiting TCEQ's future authority to create new districts under multiple water and local government codes.
