Relating to the qualifications for serving as a member of the board of directors of certain municipal utility districts.
HB 1930 amends Texas Water Code provisions to update qualifications for board members of certain municipal utility districts. It requires all directors to be at least 18, Texas residents, and either landowners in the district or qualified voters. For districts in counties bordering Mexico with a city over 500,000 population, the bill removes the land ownership requirement, allowing directors to qualify solely as voters. Current board members serving before the effective date (September 1, 2025) are exempt from the new rules. The bill applies only to new appointments or elections after that date.
