BE IT RESOLVED by the Senate of the State of Texas, 81st
Legislature, Regular Session, 2009, That Senate Rule 12.03 be
suspended in part as provided by Senate Rule 12.08 to enable the
conference committee appointed to resolve the differences on

determinations in certain counties to be heard by the State
Office of Administrative Hearings, to consider and take action on

shall be implemented in Bexar, Cameron, El Paso, Harris, Tarrant,
and Travis Counties for a three-year period beginning with the ad
valorem tax year that begins January 1, 2010.
