SB 2731 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to the qualifications for serving as a member of the board of directors of a municipal utility district.

SB 2731 amends Texas Water Code Section 54.102 to change qualifications for municipal utility district board members. It requires new board members (elected/appointed on or after September 1, 2025) to either own taxable land in the district or have a principal residence there - removing the previous option of being a qualified voter. Current board members serving before the effective date may continue their terms without meeting the new rules. This bill directly affects individuals seeking new appointments or elections to these district boards after 2025.
