Amend Basic Law One Constitutional Change Affects Taxation
A Texas Constitution amendment series discusses two proposals affecting counties. One would let the Legislature create county hospital districts with voter approval, limited to specified counties and a 75 cent per 1000 valuation tax, and the other would allow a county tax assessor collector office in counties with under 10 000 people subject to a voter referendum. Proponents cite efficiency and consolidation benefits while opponents warn of new costs and political risk.
