Texas Transportation Code § 452.151 Station Or Terminal Complex: System Plan

Sec. 452.151. STATION OR TERMINAL COMPLEX: SYSTEM PLAN. (a) An authority may not acquire an interest in real property for a station or terminal complex unless the station or terminal complex is included in the public transportation system in a comprehensive service plan approved by a resolution of the executive committee. A mass transit facility of an authority is not a station or terminal complex under this subchapter unless the facility is included in the authority's comprehensive service plan under this section.

(b) A station or terminal complex may not be included in a public transportation system unless the executive committee first finds that the station or complex:

(1) will encourage and provide for efficient and economical public transportation;

(2) will facilitate access to public transportation and provide for other public transportation purposes;

(3) will reduce vehicular congestion and air pollution in the metropolitan area; and

(4) is reasonably essential to the successful operation of the public transportation system.

(c) On making a finding under Subsection (b), the executive committee may amend the authority's comprehensive service plan to include a station or terminal complex.
