Download or read book The Home Rule Act of Texas Classic Reprint written by University of Texas and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-01-12 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Home-Rule Act of Texas The great significance of the home rule amendment to the Constitution of Texas, adopted by popular vote in November, 1912, and of the enabling act passed in April, 1913, in exeem tion of the amendment is shown by the fact that no less than thirty-nine cities of Texas have already taken action under this legislation. This represents about seventy-five per cent of the cities over 5000 population in the state, which by the terms of the amendment are entitled to take advantage of the home rule charter powers. Of these thirty-nine cities that have ai ready taken action, twenty have adopted entirely new. Charters and the rest have amended existing charters. Interest in the subject of home rule charter making continues to increase in the cities of Texas and as all action of this kind must be based on the constitutional amendment and enabling act there is a great demand for copies of this legislation. The enabling act, which repeats verbatim in its first paragraph the constitutional amendment, is not available in separate form but only in the general laws of the Regular Session of the Thirty third Legislature. As this source is not easily available to the many persons interested in examining the law with a view to determining the advisability of taking action thereunder in a particular city it has seemed desirable, in view of the many requests for the same, to prepare a copy of the law for free distribution to all citizens of Texas. This should not only be of value in aiding persons already interested in the possibilities of home rule charter action in their city, but may also help to stim ulate interest among others who have not had the opportunity of seeing what the home rule legislation offers. In the hope that both of these objects may in a large measure be fulfilled the present reprint of the home rule amendment and enabling act has been prepared.

Download or read book General Tax Laws State of Texas written by Jno; T. Smith and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-13 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from General Tax Laws, State of Texas: Annotated This book contains the general tax laws of the State of Texas as they stand today, including the laws passed by the Twenty-ninth Legislature. The constitutional provisions of this State, with reference to taxation, are given in the first part of the book. Then follow the statutory provisions. The articles are numbered as they appear in the Revised Statutes of 1895. When a new article has been enacted and not given a statutory number, it has been placed where it should properly appear. References have been made to decisions of the Supreme Court, Courts of Civil Appeals, and the Court of Criminal Appeals, and also to opinions of the Attorney General addressed to the Comptroller and rulings of the Comptroller's Department, of importance to assessors and collectors of taxes and to commissioners courts with respect to their duties in the assessment and collection of taxes, and they are printed in smaller type following the articles to which they refer. It was thought best not to encumber the book with references to all decisions and rulings bearing on the subject of taxation, hence such only have been noted as were thought to be of most importance and to give a clear understanding of the constructions placed upon the statutes by the courts and departments. Rulings of the Comptroller's Department have not been given on questions that have been decided by the courts or on which the Attorney General has rendered opinions. To have done so would have unnecessarily increased the size of the book, as that department uniformly adheres to the decisions of the courts and the opinions of the Attorney General.
