Senate Bill No. 3036 seeks to establish the Montgomery County Municipal Utility District No. 258, granting it limited powers such as eminent domain, bond issuance, and the ability to impose assessments, fees, and taxes. The bill introduces new legal language by adding Chapter 8003A to Subtitle F, Title 6 of the Special District Local Laws Code, which outlines the governance structure, including a board of five elected directors, and operational framework for the district. The creation of the district requires consent from the municipalities within its jurisdiction, and it will initially cover approximately 415.36 acres in Montgomery County, Texas.

The bill also specifies the district's powers and duties, including the design, construction, and maintenance of road projects, as well as the authority to impose taxes and issue bonds for financing. Notably, it includes a new provision stating that the district may not exercise the power of eminent domain, clarifying limitations on property acquisition. The bill provides a detailed legal description of the land tracts involved and outlines procedural requirements for its introduction and passage, with an effective date contingent on a two-thirds vote or set for September 1, 2025, if that majority is not achieved.
