More specifically, the official text was summarized by the state legislature as ’’Relating to requirements for certain funding of aviation facilities and projects’’.
The following is our breakdown, based on the actual bill text, and may include interpretation to clarify its provisions.
This bill amends the Transportation Code by adding that the existing restriction in Subsection (b)(3) does not apply to projects that receive funds specifically appropriated by the Texas Legislature and managed by the department on a pass-through basis. Additionally, it repeals Section 21.114(b) of the Transportation Code. This legislative change will take effect Sept. 1, 2025. The bill appears intended to provide more flexible funding mechanisms for aviation facilities and projects overseen by the department, facilitating the allocation and administration of resources appropriated specifically by the legislature.
Armando Martinez, member of the House Committee on House Administration and vice chair of the House Committee on Natural Resources, proposed another 11 bills during the 89(R) legislative session.
Martinez graduated from the University of Texas-Pan American with a BS.
Armando Martinez is currently serving in the Texas State House, representing the state's 39th House district. He replaced previous state representative Miguel Wise in 2005.
