Municipal Management District Review in Texas

What is happening? Texas Legislature has a long tradition of creating special districts, like the Municipal Management District. This year the Texas House Committee on Urban Affairs is going to study Municipal Management Districts.

Why is this important? The Legislature will review the “Municipal Management District Legislative Template with respect to representation and accountability. Make recommendations for improving the template.” MMDs are largely identical.

How will this be important? The Legislature wants to improve transparency in a very insulated and high dollar enterprise- the MMD world.
