SB1503 amends Texas law to allow expansion of emergency services districts into municipal territories with certain consents and conditions.

SB1503 modifies the Health and Safety Code to facilitate the expansion of emergency services districts into municipal territories. The bill requires a petition signed by qualified voters and property owners to be submitted to the municipality's governing body. If the governing body does not act within 60 days, a majority of voters and property owners can petition for annexation. The municipality's consent is necessary unless it fails to act within six months, in which case the petition proceeds.
