Relating to the repeal of certain provisions authorizing cemeteries in certain municipalities and counties.

HB 2673 amends Texas Health and Safety Code Section 711.008 to establish distance restrictions for cemetery operations near municipalities based on city population size. It prohibits establishing or operating cemeteries within specific distances (1-5 miles) from city boundaries, depending on whether the city has 5,000-25,000, 25,000-50,000, 50,000-100,000, 100,000-200,000, or over 200,000 residents. The bill repeals two existing code sections (711.008(g-3) and (g-4)) related to cemetery authorization. This change directly affects cemetery operators and developers seeking to establish burial grounds near incorporated cities of specified population sizes. The law takes effect September 1, 2025.
