City of Round Rock denounces bills targeting local control

At Tuesday morning’s Round Rock City Council meeting, the council unanimously approved a resolution to oppose several bills in the special session targeting local control. Bills the council specifically named include ones that address property tax, spending caps, tree protection, annexation and the bathroom bill. The resolution initially included language that would allow the city to oppose a texting-while-driving ban, but elected to remove that provision as the statewide ban will go into place Sept. 1 and any legislation during this special session wouldn’t have the ability to change that.
