§ 45.156. CONTRACTS WITH SCHOOL DISTRICTS. (a) Any
district, acting by and through its board of trustees, may contract
with any athletic stadium authority organized under this subchapter
for the use of any stadium owned by the authority. The contract may
be for any period not exceeding 75 years and may contain terms
agreed on by the parties.
(b) The district may enter into a contract for the use of the
stadium for any purpose related to sports activities and other
physical education programs for the students at the public schools
operated and maintained by the district.
(c) The consideration payable by the district under a
contract may be paid from any source available to the district. If
voted, the district may pledge to the payment of the contract an
annual maintenance tax in an amount sufficient, without limitation,
to provide all or part of the consideration. If voted and pledged,
the maintenance tax shall be assessed, levied, and collected
annually in the same manner as provided by general law applicable to
independent school districts for other maintenance taxes. A
maintenance tax may not be pledged to the payment of any contract or
assessed, levied, or collected unless an election is held in the
district, and the maintenance tax for that purpose is favorably
voted by a majority of the qualified voters of the district. The
election order for an election under this subsection must include
the polling place or places and any other matters considered
advisable by the board of trustees.
