SB 2408 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the Trinity River Authority of Texas, following recommendations of the Sunset Advisory Commission; specifying grounds for the removal of a member of the board of directors.

SB 2408 amends the Trinity River Authority of Texas statute to implement recommendations from the Sunset Advisory Commission. It changes the board composition from 24 to 25 directors, specifying exact county allocations (e.g., 3 from Tarrant, 4 from Dallas, 1 from each of 16 other areas, and 3 from "Area-at-Large") and adjusting initial term lengths. The bill also modifies the Sunset review schedule, requiring periodic reviews every 12 years starting September 1, 2037, while preventing the Authority's abolition under the Texas Sunset Act. These changes directly affect the Authority’s board members and governance structure. The bill is currently pending governor approval after recent legislative action.
