Tex. Water Code § 51.713: RIGHT TO SERVE NEW LAND INCLUDED IN DISTRICT.
Where this section sits in the code
- WATER CODE
- TITLE 4. GENERAL LAW DISTRICTS
- CHAPTER 51. WATER CONTROL AND IMPROVEMENT DISTRICTS
- SUBCHAPTER O. ADDING AND EXCLUDING TERRITORY AND CONSOLIDATING DISTRICTS
The district has the same right to furnish water service to the included land that it previously had to furnish service to the excluded land. The mere inclusion of a larger total acreage than that excluded does not give the district the right to irrigate a larger total acreage or to appropriate a larger quantity or volume of public water for irrigation than the district would have had the right to irrigate or to appropriate before the exclusion and inclusion of the land.
