	ARTICLE 16. CHANGES RELATING TO UTILITIES CODE
	SECTION 16.001.  Section 39.002, Utilities Code, is amended

	Sections 39.155, 39.157(e), 39.203, [39.903,] 39.904, 39.9051,
	39.9052, and 39.914(e), does not apply to a municipally owned
	utility or an electric cooperative. Sections 39.157(e), 39.203, and
	39.904, however, apply only to a municipally owned utility or an
	electric cooperative that is offering customer choice. If there is
	a conflict between the specific provisions of this chapter and any
	other provisions of this title, except for Chapters 40 and 41, the
	provisions of this chapter control.
	SECTION 16.002.  Section 39.352(g), Utilities Code, is
	amended to correct a reference to read as follows:
	(g)  If a retail electric provider serves an aggregate load
	in excess of 300 megawatts within this state, not less than five
	percent of the load in megawatt hours must consist of residential
	customers. This requirement applies to an affiliated retail
	electric provider only with respect to load served outside of the
	electric utility's service area, and, in relation to that load, the
	affiliated retail electric provider shall meet the requirements of
	this subsection by serving residential customers outside of the
	electric utility's service area. For the purpose of this
	subsection, the load served by retail electric providers that are
	under common ownership shall be combined. A retail electric
	provider may meet the requirements of this subsection by
	demonstrating on an annual basis that it serves residential load
	amounting to five percent of its total load or[,] by demonstrating
	that another retail electric provider serves sufficient qualifying
	residential load on its behalf[, or by paying an amount into the
	system benefit fund equal to $1 multiplied by a number equal to the
	difference between the number of megawatt hours it sold to
	residential customers and the number of megawatt hours it was
	required to sell to such customers, or in the case of an affiliated
	retail electric provider, $1 multiplied by a number equal to the
	difference between the number of megawatt hours sold to residential
	customers outside of the electric utility's service area and the
	number of megawatt hours it was required to sell to such customers
	outside of the electric utility's service area]. Qualifying
	residential load may not include customers served by an affiliated
	retail electric provider in its own service area. Each retail
	electric provider shall file reports with the commission that are
	necessary to implement this subsection. This subsection applies
	for 36 months after retail competition begins. The commission
	shall adopt rules to implement this subsection.
	SECTION 16.003.  Section 39.905(f), Utilities Code, is
	amended to correct a reference to read as follows:
	(f)  Each [Unless funding is provided under Section 39.903,
	each] unbundled transmission and distribution utility shall
	include in its energy efficiency plan a targeted low-income energy
	efficiency program [as described by Section 39.903(f)(2)], and the
	savings achieved by the program shall count toward the transmission
	and distribution utility's energy efficiency goal. The commission
	shall determine the appropriate level of funding to be allocated to
	both targeted and standard offer low-income energy efficiency
	programs in each unbundled transmission and distribution utility
	service area. The level of funding for low-income energy
	efficiency programs shall be provided from money approved by the
	commission for the transmission and distribution utility's energy
	efficiency programs. The commission shall ensure that annual
	expenditures for the targeted low-income energy efficiency
	programs of each unbundled transmission and distribution utility
	are not less than 10 percent of the transmission and distribution
	utility's energy efficiency budget for the year. A targeted
	low-income energy efficiency program must comply with the same
	audit requirements that apply to federal weatherization
	subrecipients. In an energy efficiency cost recovery factor
	proceeding related to expenditures under this subsection, the
	commission shall make findings of fact regarding whether the
	utility meets requirements imposed under this subsection. The
	state agency that administers the federal weatherization
	assistance program shall participate in energy efficiency cost
	recovery factor proceedings related to expenditures under this
	subsection to ensure that targeted low-income weatherization
	programs are consistent with federal weatherization programs and
	adequately funded.
	SECTION 16.004.  Section 40.001(a), Utilities Code, is

	chapter governs the transition to and the establishment of a fully
	competitive electric power industry for municipally owned

	utility" is specifically used.
	SECTION 16.005.  Section 40.004, Utilities Code, is amended

	service, including terms of access, to the extent provided by
	Subchapter A, Chapter 35;
	(2)  to regulate certification of retail service areas
	to the extent provided by Chapter 37;
	(3)  to regulate rates on appeal under Subchapters D
	and E, Chapter 33, subject to Section 40.051(c);
	(4)  to establish a code of conduct as provided by
	Section 39.157(e) applicable to anticompetitive activities and to
	affiliate activities limited to structurally unbundled affiliates
	of municipally owned utilities, subject to Section 40.054;
	(5)  to establish terms and conditions for open access
	to transmission and distribution facilities for municipally owned

	(7)  to require reports of municipally owned utility
	operations only to the extent necessary to:
	(A)  enable the commission to determine the
	aggregate load and energy requirements of the state and the
	resources available to serve that load; or
	(B)  enable the commission to determine
	information relating to market power as provided by Section 39.155.

	[39.903,] and 39.904, this chapter governs the transition to and
	the establishment of a fully competitive electric power industry
	for electric cooperatives. Regarding the regulation of electric
	cooperatives, this chapter shall control over any other provision
	of this title, except for sections in which the term "electric
	cooperative" is specifically used.
	ARTICLE 17. CHANGES RELATING TO WATER CODE
	SECTION 17.001.  Section 11.122(b-1), Water Code, as added
	by Chapter 1097 (H.B. 3735), Acts of the 85th Legislature, Regular
	Session, 2017, is repealed as duplicative of Section 11.122(b-1),
	Water Code, as added by Chapter 429 (S.B. 1430), Acts of the 85th
	Legislature, Regular Session, 2017.
	SECTION 17.002.  Section 54.016(a), Water Code, as amended
	by Chapters 761 (S.B. 1987) and 965 (S.B. 2014), Acts of the 85th
	Legislature, Regular Session, 2017, is reenacted to read as
	follows:
	(a)  No land within the corporate limits of a city or within
	the extraterritorial jurisdiction of a city, shall be included in a
	district unless the city grants its written consent, by resolution
	or ordinance, to the inclusion of the land within the district in
	accordance with Section 42.042, Local Government Code, and this
	section. The request to a city for its written consent to the
	creation of a district, shall be signed by a majority in value of
	the holders of title of the land within the proposed district as
	indicated by the county tax rolls. A petition for the written
	consent of a city to the inclusion of land within a district shall
	describe the boundaries of the land to be included in the district
	by metes and bounds or by lot and block number, if there is a
	recorded map or plat and survey of the area, and state the general
	nature of the work proposed to be done, the necessity for the work,
	and the cost of the project as then estimated by those filing the
	petition. If, at the time a petition is filed with a city for
	creation of a district, the district proposes to connect to a city's
	water or sewer system or proposes to contract with a regional water
	and wastewater provider which has been designated as such by the
	commission as of the date such petition is filed, to which the city
	has made a capital contribution for the water and wastewater
	facilities serving the area, the proposed district shall be
	designated as a "city service district." If such proposed district
	does not meet the criteria for a city service district at the time
	the petition seeking creation is filed, such district shall be
	designated as a "noncity service district." The city's consent
	shall not place any restrictions or conditions on the creation of a
	noncity service district as defined by this chapter other than
	those expressly provided in Subsection (e) of this section and
	shall specifically not limit the amounts of the district's bonds. A
	city may not require annexation as a consent to creation of any
	district. A city shall not refuse to approve a district bond issue
	for any reason except that the district is not in compliance with
	valid consent requirements applicable to the district. If a city
	grants its written consent without the concurrence of the applicant
	to the creation of a noncity service district containing conditions
	or restrictions that the petitioning land owner or owners
	reasonably believe exceed the city's powers, such land owner or
	owners may petition the commission to create the district and to
	modify the conditions and restrictions of the city's consent. The
	commission may declare any provision of the consent to be null and
	void. The commission may approve the creation of a district that
	includes any portion of the land covered by the city's consent to
	creation of the district. The legislature may create and may
	validate the creation of a district that includes any portion of the
	land covered by the city's consent to the creation of the district.

	the commission, any two members of the commission, or the
	commissioners court, or any two of any number of persons delegated
	by the commission with authority to sign vouchers, provided that
	the commission may, in such delegation, limit the authority of such
	persons and may require that each furnish a fidelity bond in such
	amount as the commission shall specify and subject to commission
	approval;
	(3)  carefully preserve all orders for the payment of
	money;

	treasurer is the designated officer of the district, as defined by
	Section 60.271(g).
	(b)  A designated officer of a district may make a payment on
	behalf of the district by a check drawn on a depository selected
	under Section 62.155 in a manner consistent with the payment
