HJR 188 proposes a constitutional amendment creating the Local Government Water Redevelopment Fund, a special fund in the Texas state treasury. The fund would be administered by the Texas Water Development Board and used to finance water infrastructure repair and redevelopment projects across the state. The fund would consist of money from legislative appropriations, dedicated revenue sources, earned interest, and private gifts or grants. The legislature would determine how funds are allocated and managed, while any unspent money at the end of a biennium would automatically roll over for continued use. The amendment will be placed on the November 7, 2025 ballot for voter approval​.
