Review of Agency Rules

Proposed Rule Review

Texas Commission on the Arts

Title 13, Part 3

The Texas Commission on the Arts (Commission) will review and consider whether to re-adopt, re-adopt with amendments, or repeal Chapter 31 concerning Agency Procedures, Chapter 32 concerning Memoranda of Understanding, Chapter 35 concerning a Guide to Operations, Programs and Services, and Chapter 37 concerning Application Forms and Instructions for Financial Assistance. This review is done pursuant to Texas Government Code, §2001.039.

The Commission will assess whether the reason(s) for adopting or re-adopting these chapters continue to exist. Each section of each chapter will be reviewed to determine whether it is obsolete, reflects current legal and policy considerations, reflects current general provisions in the governance of the Commission, and/or whether it is in compliance with Chapter 2001 of the Texas Government Code (Administrative Procedure Act).

Comments on the review may be submitted in writing within 30 days following the publication of this rule review in the Texas Register to Gary Gibbs, Executive Director, P.O. Box 13406, Austin, Texas 78711-3406. Any proposed changes to the sections of this chapter as a result of the review will be published in the Proposed Rules Section of the Texas Register and will be open for an additional 30-day public comment period prior to final adoption of any repeal, amendment, or re-adoption.
