Tex.
Local Gov't Code Section 232.0095
Alternative Procedures for Plat Revision
(a)
This section applies only to real property located outside municipalities and outside the extraterritorial jurisdiction, as determined under Chapter 42 (Extraterritorial Jurisdiction of Municipalities), of municipalities with a population of 1.5 million or more.(b)
As an alternative to the provisions in Section 232.009 (Revision of Plat) governing the revision of plats, a county by order may adopt the provisions in Sections 212.013 (Vacating Plat), 212.014 (Replatting Without Vacating Preceding Plat), 212.015 (Additional Requirements for Certain Replats), and 212.016 (Amending Plat) governing plat vacations, replatting, and plat amendment. A county that adopts the provisions in those sections may approve a plat vacation, a replat, and an amending plat in the same manner and under the same conditions, including the notice and hearing requirements, as a municipal authority responsible for approving plats under those sections.(c)
Instead of the purpose described by Section 212.016 (Amending Plat)(a)(10), an amended plat may be approved and issued by the county to make necessary changes to the preceding plat to create six or fewer lots in the subdivision or a part of the subdivision covered by the preceding plat if:(1)
the changes do not affect applicable county regulations, including zoning regulations if the county has authority to adopt zoning regulations; and(2)
the changes do not attempt to amend or remove any covenants or restrictions.
