Sec. 51.332. INCREASING DISTRICT'S POWERS

(a) A district operating under the provisions of this chapter which did not at the time of its creation have the powers provided in Section 51.331 of this code may assume the additional powers in the same manner and by the same procedures as provided in this subchapter, except that it is not necessary to hold an election to confirm the order establishing the district's increased powers.

(b) The board may not issue a money obligation to finance the increased functions, facilities, and powers until after the electors of the district have authorized it by a constitutional and statutory majority vote as provided by this chapter to control the issuance of preliminary bonds or construction bonds as the proposal may require.
