HB 2687 Texas House · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to municipal zoning regulations and district boundaries.

HB 2687 modifies Texas municipal zoning rules by requiring cities to notify property owners within 200 feet of proposed zoning changes via certified mail or public website posting. It also establishes a new process where city councils must hold public hearings if 40% of property owners within the affected zone or adjacent 200-foot area petition for reconsideration within two years of a zoning rule taking effect. To maintain a zoning regulation, city councils would need a three-quarters vote of all members, or the rule would become void. This bill directly affects property owners near zoning changes and city governments managing zoning regulations.
