A BILL TO BE ENTITLED
 
AN ACT
 
 
  relating to the limitation on the amount of supplemental payments
  under the Texas Economic Development Act.
         BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
         SECTION 1.  Section 313.027(i), Tax Code, is amended to read
  as follows:
         (i)  A person and the school district may not enter into an
  agreement under which the person agrees to provide supplemental
  payments to a school district or any other entity on behalf of a
  school district in an amount that exceeds an amount equal to the
  greater of $100 per student per year in average daily attendance, as
  defined by Section 42.005, Education Code, or $75,000 [$50,000] per
  year, or for a period that exceeds the period beginning with the
  period described by Section 313.021(4) and ending December 31 of
  the third tax year after the date the person's eligibility for a
  limitation under this chapter expires. This limit does not apply to
  amounts described by Subsection (f)(1) or (2).
         SECTION 2.  The change in law under this Act applies only to
  an application filed under Chapter 313, Tax Code, on or after the
  effective date of this Act. An application filed under that chapter
  before the effective date of this Act is governed by the law in
  effect on the date the application was filed, and the former law is
  continued in effect for that purpose.
         SECTION 3.  This Act takes effect September 1, 2015.
