AMENDMENT NO. 9:
Proposes to eliminate unnec-
essary delays in resolving
certain court cases by allow-
ing probate court judges to
serve in other courts.
The 11 statutory courts
affected by this proposal are
located in Bexar (2), Dallas
(3), Galveston, Harris (3)
and Tarrant (2) counties.
If approved, judges sitting
on these courts could sit

signment system that would
be provided by the Legisla-
ture.
AMENDMENT NO. 10:
Intends to allow cities that
replace or relocate sewer
lines to enter into agreements
with private property owners
to build sewer laterals.
If the homeowner agreed,
the city could make assess-
ments over a five-year pe-
riod to pay the cost of con-
necting the house to the
main sewer line.
AMENDMENT NO. 11:
Proposes to change the
Board of Pardons and Pa-
roles from a constitutional
agency to a statutory agen-
cy, and would eliminate the

paroles.

ship of the Pardons and Pa-
roles Boards would be
changed to a composition
authorized by the Legisla-
ture.
Currently, the three board
members are appointed one
by the governor, one by the
Chief Justice of the Texas
Supreme Court, and one by
the presiding judge of the
