H.B. No. 4618 amends the Education Code to establish new requirements for agreements involving minor boundary adjustments between contiguous school districts. The bill introduces two new subsections, (c) and (d), which stipulate that any agreement executed on or after January 1, 2025, must include specific terms regarding the continuation of restrictions, covenants, or contracts related to the real property being transferred. Additionally, the agreement must provide a brief explanation of the privileges, rights, and responsibilities of each school district concerning these terms.

Furthermore, for agreements executed between January 1, 2025, and the effective date of the Act, any terms related to the continuation of restrictions will be effective as of January 1, 2025, or another date agreed upon by the parties. The Act is set to take effect on September 1, 2025.
