SB 2983 Texas Senate · 89th Legislature (2025)

Relating to strategies to address homelessness and affordable housing in certain counties, including the repurposing of land located in those counties, the use of certain tax revenue attributable to that land, and building restrictions in certain municipalities.

This bill defines specific "Capitol view corridors" in Austin, Texas, through detailed geographic coordinates (e.g., South Mall, Waterloo Park, Wooldridge Park, and French Legation corridors). It amends the Government Code to establish precise boundaries for these corridors, which are intended to preserve views of the state Capitol. The bill text provided does not address homelessness, affordable housing, land repurposing, tax revenue, or building restrictions as suggested in the title; it solely focuses on defining these zoning corridors. The bill was referred to the Local Government committee, indicating its nature as a procedural zoning measure.
