Change in Precinct Boundaries
(a)
A local option election held in a justice precinct shall be held in the territory comprising the justice precinct at the time the election is held. If a justice precinct has established a local option status as a result of a previous local option election in the justice precinct, such status shall remain in effect until the status is changed as the result of a subsequent local option election in the precinct. If the boundaries of the justice precinct have changed since such status was established, a subsequent local option election will only change the local option status in the territory that is part of the justice precinct on the date of the subsequent local option election.(a-1)
For purposes of a local option election, a newly created justice precinct shall be considered to have not held a local option election on the sale of alcoholic beverages. Any local option status established in the territory comprising the new justice precinct that resulted from a local option election held in the territory when the territory was part of another justice precinct remains in effect until that status is changed by a local option election held in the new justice precinct.(b)
Nothing in this section is intended to affect the operation of Section 251.73 (Prevailing Status: Resolution of Conflicts) of this code.(c)
Repealed by Acts 2013, 83rd Leg., R.S., Ch. 1298, Sec. 6, eff. September 1, 2013.
