Lake Austin property tax exemption bill killed in Texas House

The Texas House killed a bill Thursday that would have paved the way for hundreds of Lake Austin shoreline homes to secede from the city of Austin. Senate Bill 659 from Sen. Dawn Buckingham, R-Lakeway, died on a point of order from state Rep. Donna Howard, D-Austin. The bill had passed the Senate on April 15 and appeared headed for passage after it made it out of committee in the House. In a statement to the American-Statesman, Howard said the Legislature was not the appropriate venue for aggrieved property owners. It’s terrible precedent and sitting around pretending to be city council members is a waste of state time that could be better spent improving infrastructure, schools and the criminal justice system issues Texans from Midland to Austin can agree on, Howard said.
