Relating to the authority of a property owners' association to regulate the display of certain flags.

This bill (SB 2783) prevents Texas property owners' associations (like HOAs) from banning or restricting the display of four specific flags: the U.S. flag, Texas state flag, military branch flags, and political flags during election periods (as defined by election law). HOAs may still set reasonable rules about flagpole size, location (requiring at least one front-yard pole ≤20 feet), maintenance, and prohibiting offensive displays or flags on association-owned property. It directly affects homeowners in Texas communities governed by HOAs with flag regulations. The law takes effect September 1, 2025.
