A RESOLUTION REQUESTING NON-PASSAGE OF HOUSE BILL 35 CONCERNING COURT COSTS IN
DELINQUENT TAX CASES. WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Wichita Falls ,
Texas deems it necessary to have a declared policy regarding the expense
of prepaying court costs in delinquent tax cases, and
WHEREAS, the City Council of the City of Wichita Falls, Texas is of the
opinion that said expense of paying court costs in delinquent tax cases should
be borne by the delinquent tax-payer who are responsible for causing such
expense, and that House Bill 35, presently pending before the Texas Legislature,
proposes to make the taxing districts prepay court costs in delinquent tax
cases and that such prepayment is not in the best interest of our taxing
district.
NOW, THEREFORE, be it resolved by the City Council of the City of Wichita
Falls , Texas that House Bill 35, which provides for prepayment of court costs
by the taxing districts, is not in the best interest of our taxing district
and we urge that House Bill 35 not be passed.
