Compliance Analysis

Key implementation requirements and action items for compliance with this legislation

Implementation Timeline

Effective Date: June 20, 2025 (Immediate effect due to two-thirds vote).
Compliance Deadline: Immediate. Landowners must file a petition for temporary directors to initiate District operations. The "Notice to Purchasers" requirement for real estate sales triggers immediately upon the District's creation.
Agency Rulemaking: No new agency rulemaking is required; however, the District is subject to existing Texas Commission on Environmental Quality (TCEQ) rules regarding bond feasibility and district creation.

Immediate Action Plan

1. File Petition: Legal counsel must file the petition for appointment of temporary directors with the TCEQ immediately.
2. Update Sales Contracts: Insert the specific "Notice to Purchasers" regarding Montgomery County MUD No. 258 into all earnest money contracts for land within the District.
3. Verify ETJ: Commission a surveyor to confirm exact ETJ boundaries to determine which municipality must grant consent.
4. Secure Insurance: Purchase Public Official Bonds and Liability Insurance for the five incoming directors.
5. Draft Reimbursement Agreement: Prepare the contract defining which infrastructure costs are eligible for future repayment.

Operational Changes Required

Contracts

Reimbursement Agreements: Developers must execute a Reimbursement Agreement with the District. This contract governs the developer's advance of funds for infrastructure and the District's obligation to repay via future bond proceeds.
Public Bidding: All construction contracts funded by the District must comply with Texas Water Code Chapter 49 public bidding requirements. Private procurement policies are no longer sufficient for infrastructure work intended for reimbursement.
Municipal Consent: A development agreement or consent resolution must be negotiated with any municipality in whose Extraterritorial Jurisdiction (ETJ) the District lies prior to the confirmation election.

Hiring/Training

Board Appointments: You must identify and appoint five temporary directors. These individuals must be qualified (generally, owning land in the district or being a qualified voter) and must secure Public Official Bonds and D&O insurance immediately upon appointment.
Consultant Retention: The Board must retain Bond Counsel, a General Counsel, a District Engineer, and a Bookkeeper to manage regulatory filings and financial operations.

Reporting & Record-Keeping

Notice to Purchasers: Sellers of real property within the District boundaries must provide the statutory "Notice to Purchasers" (Texas Water Code § 49.452) to all buyers. This notice discloses the potential tax liability and bond authorization. Failure to provide this allows the buyer to terminate the contract at closing.
Election Orders: Strict retention of all confirmation election documents is required to withstand Attorney General review for future bond issuances.
TCEQ Filings: The District must file its creation order, director information, and boundary map with the TCEQ and the Montgomery County Clerk.

Fees & Costs

Election Costs: The Developer must front the cost of the confirmation and director election (likely May 2026).
Ad Valorem Taxes: Upon voter approval, the District will levy a new property tax layer. The rate is set annually by the Board based on debt service and O&M needs.
Bond Issuance Costs: Costs of issuance are paid from bond proceeds, but initial engineering and legal work are advanced by the developer.

Strategic Ambiguities & Considerations

Road Bond Cap (25% Rule): Section 8003A.0503 caps road bonds at 25% of the *assessed value* of real property. If vertical construction (homes/commercial) lags, the District cannot issue sufficient bonds to reimburse road costs. This creates a cash-flow gap risk for developers.
ETJ Jurisdiction: The bill requires consent from "each municipality." If the District boundaries overlap disputed ETJ lines between cities (e.g., Conroe vs. Willis), obtaining consent may stall until jurisdiction is resolved.
Maintenance Standards: If the County or City declines to accept the roads for maintenance, the District retains liability. This forces a higher Operation & Maintenance (O&M) tax rate, which impacts the marketability of the homes/lots.
