Statute text

Sec. 1. In order that the expansion and improvement program of the State Highway Commission may be carried forward in an orderly and expeditious manner the title to and control of that certain narrow strip of land consisting of six (6) separate tracts or parcels and being 4.89 acres, more or less, owned by the State of Texas and the Texas State College for Women, are hereby transferred and conveyed to the Texas Highway Commission for the widening and material improvement of State Highway No. 24 in Denton County, Texas, from North Locust Street in the City of Denton easterly to the Denton-Collin County Line, as shown on the right-of-way map on file in the State Highway Department at Austin, Texas, and more particularly described as follows, to wit: [Detailed description omitted.] Sec. 2. The fact that the improvement and widening of State Highway No. 24 from a point on North Locust Street in the City of Denton easterly to the Denton-Collin County Line has been long delayed because of the inability of the State Highway Commission to obtain the right of way necessary for the widening and improvement of such Highway, creates an emergency and imperative public necessity that the Constitutional Rule requiring bills to be read on three separate days in each House be suspended, and said Rule is hereby suspended, and this Act shall take effect and be in force from and after its passage, and it is so enacted.
