HB 4168 ON THIRD READING
(by D. Bonnen, R. Miller, Zerwas, Reynolds, and E. Thompson)

HB 4168, A bill to be entitled An Act relating to the composition of the board of directors and the powers of the Gulf Coast Water Authority.

HB 4168 - REMARKS

REPRESENTATIVE D. BONNEN: This is the bill we dealt with yesterday for Fort Bend and Brazoria Counties at the dislike of Galveston. I believe there is an amendment that I will not be accepting.

Amendment No. 1

Representative G. Bonnen offered the following amendment to HB 4168:

Amend HB 4168 as follows:
(1)  On page 4, line 7, strike "2015" and substitute "3015".
(2)  On page 4, line 8, strike "2015" and substitute "3015".

REPRESENTATIVE G. BONNEN: This is a very simple amendment. It is the most simple amendment you're going to see the entire legislative session. We're only going to change one digit in this bill. We're going to change the number two to the number three so the effective date of the changes to the governance structure of the Gulf Coast Water Authority will move from September 1, 2015 to September 1, 3015. This way the speaker pro tempore can pass his bill, and we'll have plenty of time to not deal with the nasty consequences of this legislation in our lifetime. So this amendment may seem a little bit ridiculous, but I would suggest to you it is actually less ridiculous than two counties that represent 25 percent of the revenue for the Gulf Coast Water Authority going to the legislature and taking a controlling interest on the board of the Gulf Coast Water Authority. As you heard, it's not acceptable to the author. So I would ask that if you are not going to vote for the amendment that you would please white light this amendment.

D. BONNEN: Members, I think we had a nice discussion about all this yesterday. I appreciate the effort that's being made, but obviously we need to table the amendment; or actually, we can just vote it up and down.

G. BONNEN: Please vote in favor of this amendment or vote present, not voting.

Amendment No. 1 failed of adoption by (Record 609): 32 Yeas, 52 Nays, 59 Present, not voting.

REPRESENTATIVE FAIRCLOTH: Somehow being here reminds me of what's said about an NFL quarterback---after you throw an interception, you need to have a short memory. So we're back again today, and here's why: 75 percent of the revenue that's generated from the Gulf Coast Water Authority is generated in Galveston County. Now, I want you to think about that. Let me give you an example. You and I work together on a team. I work three days; you work one day. You work a half a day; your partner works half a day. At the end of the week we all get paid the same. Now, something about that just doesn't seem right. I work three days, you work a half a day, you work a half a day---and we're all equal. That's just not right. That is absolutely not right.
So here's the other thing---bear with me one second. In the next five years it's anticipated that $100 million, in that neighborhood, will be issued for capital improvement projects. Now what does that mean? How are those bonds going to be paid back? Those bonds will be paid to the revenues---75 percent of those bond payments will come out of Galveston County; 25 percent will come from the other two counties. I don't think you would want this in your county. We don't want it in ours. I'm perfectly willing to do this. I'm perfectly willing to promise you that we will work to make sure that this issue gets resolved to the satisfaction---if we all sit down like adults like we know how to do. So here's what I ask you to do---if you can vote with conviction on this, great, but if you can't, I ask you not to vote at all.

G. BONNEN: You know, I really appreciate Representative Faircloth's comments, and I would also add to that---if you look at what's happened to the Gulf Coast Water Authority and you look at what's happened on the board and think about times when we have been asked to make changes to board structures or organizations in the past, there's been, typically, a concern of impropriety or abuse or conflict. We don't have any of that. None of that has occurred. There has been no impropriety, no fraud, no abuse. There hasn't even been division among the members of the board. This is a brute force takeover of the board by two neighboring counties with a minority stake in the Gulf Coast Water Authority. As Representative Faircloth said, I would appreciate that you vote against this piece of legislation. And if you can't vote against it, if you don't represent Fort Bend or Brazoria or Galveston Counties, then I think it would be appropriate to vote present, not voting.

D. BONNEN: I apologize to keep dragging this out, but Representative Faircloth said let's act like adults and do this like adults would do. Adults communicate. Adults come to the table. Adults negotiate. On March 18, the Fort Bend County judge and the Brazoria County judge drove to Galveston County and met with that judge, and they never got a response from him from that date forward. He didn't return phone calls; he didn't return e-mails. We had it right yesterday. I ask you to get it right again today.

FAIRCLOTH: Unless I am mistaken, the board makes the board's decisions. So did the other members that you're referring to from the county judges---did they meet with the full board?

D. BONNEN: Mr. Faircloth, this is a governance question. The governance is controlled by the commissioners courts. The appointments are made largely by the commissioners court in Galveston County and some of the cities. The one appointment Brazoria County has is made by them. But Mr. Faircloth, with all due respect, you can't say let's handle this like adults, and let's do this the right way, but then you want to defend your county judge refusing to even respond to our two county judges who drove down to Galveston, had a meeting with him---he didn't return their phone calls; he didn't return their e-mails. And then you want to stand here and put these members through this discussion saying there's a better way to do it. There is. It's by having our county judges show leadership and work together. Fort Bend County judge, Dr. Zerwas' judge did; my county judge, Ed Thompson's county judge did. But unfortunately, the Galveston County judge where this could have been brought to a reasoned resolution---which, by the way, what those county judges asked for, Mr. Faircloth, was a three--three--three board membership. This bill does four for Galveston---remember this members, it's fair---four for Galveston, three for Brazoria, and two for Fort Bend. It's a fair, reasoned approach to have a regional water authority to govern water for our communities for the next thousand years.

FAIRCLOTH: So it's okay if I work three days a week and you work half a day?

D. BONNEN: Mr. Faircloth, you are playing with the numbers. Fifty-two percent of the water customer is bought off by Galveston, 27 percent is Brazoria, and the rest is Fort Bend, Mr. Faircloth.

FAIRCLOTH: Well, not the revenue. Not the revenue generated.

D. BONNEN: That's right, because the revenue is the number you want to play on. And I told you, if y'all want to, I'll bring my amendment that makes this the Galveston Water Authority. You can't own any assets or have a single contract outside of Galveston County. If you want to control it, you can have exactly what you want, Mr. Faircloth.

FAIRCLOTH: That's not true. That's not true.

D. BONNEN: No, it is true. I have an amendment to do that.

FAIRCLOTH: No, you can have the amendment to do it, but you can't do that.

D. BONNEN: Why can't I?

FAIRCLOTH: That's more of a taking than what we're talking about here.

D. BONNEN: Why could I not do that, Mr. Faircloth? Why would I not be able to do that, Mr. Faircloth? If Galveston County wants ultimate control and authority and say it's all about what you get and what you've got---why could I not do that?

FAIRCLOTH: Well, here's what I would say. We're being adult about this. The issue is currently here. It's not rested between the counties.

D. BONNEN: That's exactly right.

FAIRCLOTH: It's here.

D. BONNEN: That's right.

FAIRCLOTH: And so that's what we're trying to do. That's what we're trying to understand here.

D. BONNEN: I agree with you completely, and that's what we're getting done.

FAIRCLOTH: That's what we're getting done?

D. BONNEN: That's right.

FAIRCLOTH: Well, somehow it just seems like---it's almost like going in and taking over the board of a company. It just seems odd when you have a minority share.

D. BONNEN: How are we taking it over, Mr. Faircloth? You will still have four seats. And I totally understand it's difficult going from complete dominance and control to four and having to have a workable, agreeable relationship with everybody involved. That's an awkward thing for y'all to have to accept, but it's the right thing for long-term water planning.

FAIRCLOTH: When my water rights go back to 1926, it's a little difficult to ignore that. This place came into being, as I said yesterday, as the Galveston County Water Authority.

D. BONNEN: That's correct, and I told you, Mr. Faircloth, I'm glad to return it to the Galveston County Water Authority, but y'all don't want that either.

FAIRCLOTH: We extended services to you, and now we're being asked to take a junior position on the board.

D. BONNEN: It's not a junior position, Mr. Faircloth. How can four seats, the most votes of any county, be junior?

FAIRCLOTH: Well, we're going from seven to four. Four--three--two.

D. BONNEN: Exactly, and that's what I understand y'all are having a hard time with.

FAIRCLOTH: So what happened yesterday, when two counties ganged up on one, which had not happened in the past---on the board it could happen again? That's five-four.

D. BONNEN: Actually, Mr. Faircloth, that's not true. Two counties ganged up on one? Two county judges went and met with a third county judge, and he didn't have the decency to return their phone calls or e-mails or ever communicate with them again about it. Because guess what, if it stays seven to two, you get exactly what you want. And you can call it ganging up; you can call it what you want. But I think the members are now seeing the fairness and the decency that Fort Bend and Brazoria Counties are begging for to put the governance structure of this regional water authority to bed for the next thousand years and have a good structure---that we can all work together respectfully and cooperatively and do the right things for Fort Bend, Brazoria, and Galveston County when it comes to water. That's what we're asking to do.

FAIRCLOTH: Well, it is a sad day to me when we have to come to the legislature to make this decision.

D. BONNEN: I couldn't agree with you more, and if your county judge would return a phone call and an e-mail and show respect to his counterparts in the neighboring counties, maybe we wouldn't have to be here having this argument. I move passage.

FAIRCLOTH: Well, my county judge doesn't run the Gulf Coast Water Authority, and those are the facts.

CSHB 335 - POINT OF ORDER

Representative Schaefer raised a point of order against further consideration of CSHB 335 under Rule 4, Section 32(c) of the House Rules on the grounds that the committee report is incorrect.

The chair overruled the point of order and submitted the following statement:

Representative Schaefer raised a point of order against further consideration of CSHB 335 under Rule 4, Section 32(c) of the House Rules on the grounds that the bill analysis is misleading. The point of order is respectfully overruled.
Rule 4, Section 32(c) of the House Rules states that "each committee report on a bill. . .must include in summary or section-by-section form a detailed analysis of the subject matter of the bill." Rule 4, Section 32(c) of the House Rules. Representative Schaefer asserts that the bill analysis for CSHB 335 explains the definition of three of the four terms defined in the bill but fails to define the term "household." Representative Schaefer, therefore, argues, citing a point of order for which no explanation is provided in the house journal, that omitting an explanation of this definition from the bill analysis, while including other definitions, renders the bill analysis misleading in violation of Rule 4, Section 32(c). See 80 H.J. Reg. 5084 (2007) (sustaining without comment a point of order by Dutton on CSSB 785).
The mere fact that a bill defines a term, but the bill analysis "does not state that the bill is defining this key term. . .is not a fatal flaw." 83 H.J. Reg. 3005-3006 (2013) (Martinez Fischer point of order on CSHB 3316); see 83 H.J. Reg. 2815-2816 (2013) (Schaefer point of order on HB 75); 83 H.J. 1st C.S. 1082-1083 (2013) (C. Turner point of order on CSHB 16). Having reviewed the bill and the entire bill analysis, including the side-by-side comparison, the chair finds that CSHB 335's bill analysis complies with the requirements of Rule 4, Section 32(c) of the House Rules.

CSHB 335 was passed to engrossment by (Record 630): 123 Yeas, 15 Nays, 4 Present, not voting.

COMMITTEES GRANTED PERMISSION TO MEET

Pursuant to Rule 4, Section 9 of the House Rules, Representative Huberty requested permission for all committees and subcommittees to meet while the house is in session, during bill referral today, pursuant to their committee postings. For purposes of this motion, those committees and subcommittees that are scheduled to meet upon adjournment or final recess today shall be considered to be scheduled to meet during bill referral today.

Permission to meet was granted.

RULES SUSPENDED

Representative Crownover moved to suspend all necessary rules to allow the Committee on Public Health to consider SB 97 during bill referral today in 1W.14.

The motion prevailed.

COMMITTEE MEETING ANNOUNCEMENTS

The following committee meetings were announced:

Public Health, during bill referral today, 1W.14, for a formal meeting, to consider SB 97.

Land and Resource Management, during bill referral today, 1W.14, for a formal meeting, to consider pending business.

FIVE-DAY POSTING RULE SUSPENDED

Representative T. King moved to suspend the five-day posting rule and all necessary rules to allow the Committee on Agriculture and Livestock to consider SB 1204 at 8 a.m. tomorrow in E1.010.

The motion prevailed.

COMMITTEE MEETING ANNOUNCEMENTS

The following committee meetings were announced:

Agriculture and Livestock, 8 a.m. tomorrow, E1.010, for a public hearing, to consider SB 1204 and the previously posted agenda.

Calendars, 5:30 p.m. today, E2.022, for a formal meeting, to set a calendar.

MESSAGE FROM THE SENATE

A message from the senate was received at this time (see the addendum to the daily journal, Messages from the Senate, Message No. 3).

HB 170 - POINT OF ORDER

Representative Rinaldi raised a point of order against further consideration of HB 170 under Rule 6 of the House Rules on the grounds that the chair failed to properly lay the bill on the table subject to call after considering its senate companion.

The chair sustained the point of order and submitted the following statement:

Representative Rinaldi raised a point of order against further consideration of HB 170 on the grounds that the chair failed to lay the bill on the table subject to call after its senate companion was laid out and subsequently recommitted to committee, thereby contravening house practice and possibly violating Rule 6 of the House Rules. See Rule 6, Sections 1, 16, and 17 of the House Rules (explaining daily order of business and prohibiting deviations from posted calendars); see also Rule 6, Section 10 of the House Rules (obligating the speaker to give the place on the calendar of the house bill to any eligible senate bill and to lay before the house the senate bill to be considered in lieu of the house bill). The point of order is sustained.
When the house reached HB 170 on the calendar, HB 170's senate companion, SB 97, was eligible to be laid out in its place. The chair laid out SB 97 in accordance with Rule 6, Section 10 of the House Rules, and SB 97 was ultimately recommitted to committee pursuant to a motion made by the bill's sponsor. See Rule 7, Section 18 of the House Rules (motion to recommit). Typically, at this point, the chair would have laid HB 170 on the table subject to call based on the author's motion. Instead, the chair continued through the calendar until Representative Rinaldi called a point of order on HB 170, which, the chair conceded, had neither been considered in its regular place on the calendar nor laid on the table subject to call consistent with house practice. Because HB 170 was listed on the calendar but not disposed of in a manner consistent with house rules or practice, the bill was out of order and the chair was compelled to return HB 170 to the Committee on Calendars.

HB 170 was returned to the Committee on Calendars.

PROVIDING FOR ADJOURNMENT

At 5:04 p.m., Representative Farrar moved that, at the conclusion of the reading of bills and resolutions on first reading and referral to committees, the house adjourn until 10 a.m. tomorrow in memory of Ernest Eguia of Houston.
