Texas HB1698 allows for the amendment of restrictive covenants in certain multi-zoned subdivisions.

Texas HB1698 amends the Property Code to allow for the amendment of restrictive covenants in multi-zoned subdivisions.

The bill defines a "multi-zoned subdivision" as one platted before 1965, with more than 900 lots, located in two or more municipalities, and zoned for a use not permitted by the applicable restrictions. The amendment process requires a written ballot specifying the proposed changes, the area affected, and the deadline for returning the ballot.
