SB 1095 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to authorizing the issuance of revenue bonds for certain capital projects at Sul Ross State University.

SB 1095 authorizes Sul Ross State University to issue up to $70 million in revenue bonds for capital projects, specifically expanding agricultural, life, and physical sciences facilities. The bonds would be secured by pledges of university revenue, including student tuition charges, which cannot be reduced while the bonds are outstanding. This bill directly affects Sul Ross State University and the Texas State University System, providing a financing mechanism for campus infrastructure improvements. The legislation does not alter the university's operational authority but establishes a new funding pathway for designated capital projects.
