NUMBER ONE
ON THE BALLOT
(S.J.R. 49)
Repealing Sections 49-d
and 49-d-l of Article III
of the Texas Constitution,
S.J.R. 49 amends Section
49-c of Article III of the
Texas Constitution to pro-
vide for and authorize an
additional $400 million in
Texas water development
bonds that may be issued
on approval of two-thirds
of the members of each
house of the Legislature
for such water develop-
ment purposes as the
Legislature may prescribe.
The amendment con-
tains a specific prohibition
against the use of state
funds for the development
of water resources from the
Mississippi River and also
requires that before any
single water development
project may be undertaken
requiring the expenditure
of more than $35 million
in bond proceeds, it must
be approved by resolution
of the Legislature.
The amendment
moves the constitutional
requirement that certain
revenues must be used to
retire water development
and water quality enhance-
ment bonds and removes
the constitutional interest
rate limit on such bonds.
The wording of the pro-
posed amendment as it will
appear on the ballot is as
follows:
