Commissioners Court designated a reinvestment zone following the appropriate notice and public hearing. We have since discovered a flaw in the legal description that leaves out some property. My thought is that we would need a new hearing, etc., but could just amend the existing zone rather than create a new one with this other swatch of land. Has anyone else had this experience, or does anyone else have any thoughts on the subject. It seems rather silly to have to designate a whole new reinvestment zone.

There are two versions of Transportation Code section 222.1071. Subsection (m) of the HB 2300 version allows a county to amend the boundaries, but if adding you must still comply with the notice, hearing, and order requirements.

I think you can amend the zone as long as the notice and hearing requirements are met.....assuming you are asking about a reinvestment zone designated pursuant to the tax code
