HB 5675 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the composition of the board of directors and the powers of the Presidio County Underground Water Conservation District.

HB 5675 amends the governance structure of the Presidio County Underground Water Conservation District. It reduces the board of directors from seven to five members and requires specific appointments: one director from Marfa City Council and one from Presidio City Council (via new subsections d-1 and d-2). The bill also clarifies the district's powers under Texas Water Code, stating it operates under specific groundwater conservation laws while remaining subject to oversight by the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality. These changes directly affect how the district is governed and who appoints its leadership.
