Relating to the powers, duties, and authority to issue bonds of the Fort Bend County Water Control and Improvement District No. 12 related to roads.

HB 5662 authorizes Fort Bend County Water Control and Improvement District No. 12 to design, build, and maintain roads (including storm drainage improvements) within its boundaries under specific constitutional authority. The bill establishes that road projects must comply with local municipal or county construction standards and regulations, and requires Texas Transportation Commission approval if the state will maintain the road. It limits the district’s bond financing for road projects to no more than one-fourth of the district’s total assessed real property value. This bill directly affects the district’s ability to fund and manage road infrastructure projects within its jurisdiction.
