H.B. No. 3513 amends the Human Resources Code to modify the composition and terms of the Moore County Juvenile Board. The board will now consist of the county judge, the judge of the County Court at Law of Moore County, and between three to five additional members appointed by the Moore County Commissioners Court, replacing the previous requirement of six appointed members. The terms of the appointed members will now be two years, with the possibility of extension for up to two additional years at the discretion of the Commissioners Court, eliminating the staggered term structure that previously existed.

Additionally, the bill specifies that certain sections of the Human Resources Code, specifically Sections 152.0002 through 152.0006, will not apply to the Moore County Juvenile Board, thereby providing it with more autonomy. This legislation is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
