YCT Nay. HB 3459 diminishes property rights for homeowners in coastal areas. The Texas Supreme Court has ruled that one cannot lose their property simply because a hurricane washes vegetation onto it. This bill attempts to chip away at that ruling and would allow the Land Office to take private property without just compensation.
