State Representative Kyle Biedermann and State Representative Erin Zwiener will join us at our Town Hall Meeting, co-sponsored by GEAA, to discuss Props 2, 5, and 8, which are on the November 5th ballot and very important for conservation.
Proposition 2: Authorizes the Texas Water Board to issue bonds for water and sewer projects in economically distressed areas.
Proposition 5: Ensures the existing sporting goods sales tax will go to the TPWD and Texas Historical Commission for protecting natural areas, water quality, and history.
Proposition 8: Creates funding for infrastructure for drainage, flood mitigation, and flood control projects, including “green infrastructure” projects, which use undeveloped land for flood mitigation.
