Texas HB2671 changes the date for automatic elections to approve school district tax rates.

Texas HB2671 amends the Tax Code to adjust the timing of automatic elections for approving school district tax rates. The elections will now be held on the same day as the next general election for state and county officers, as prescribed by the Election Code. This change aims to ensure that the elections occur after the election order and allow sufficient time to meet other legal requirements. The ballot will include a proposition detailing the tax rate, the percentage increase in maintenance and operations tax revenue, and the additional dollar amount resulting from the adopted tax rate.
