Relating to the name and powers of the Sabine Pass Port Authority; altering the terms of the authority's port commission; altering the authority to issue bonds.
SB 3032 updates the legal name and governance structure of the Sabine Pass Port Authority in Texas law. It changes the official name to "Port of Sabine Pass" throughout state code, standardizes terminology, and alters the commission's election process by extending commissioner terms from two to four years with staggered elections (two commissioners elected in even-numbered years, three in odd-numbered years). The bill directly affects the Port Authority's governing commission members and their election schedule, streamlining administrative language and term structure without creating new powers or financial obligations. These changes align the authority's legal framework with its operational identity.
