changes that can be done to constitution of Texas to serve a better purpose
The constitution of Texas is a very paramount document that keeps the nation to carry its duties smoothly. This constitution has a long historical trail. Even the current law has got many weaknesses and strengths. It limits the government in getting involved in problems that arise in Texas. Thus there need to be some changes that will allow the government to work better in serving the nation. This paper will discuss three changes that can be done to this document to serve a better purpose.
Firstly, I would propose the change in the legislature, to provide an exemption that is temporally from the taxation on ad varolem of a piece of the value appraised for the properties that are damaged by a disaster. Disaster can cause a lot of damage to the [property, so the owners are left to wrestle with other valuations.. thus, the legislature should provide temporary relief for ad valorem taxes on the features a when a disaster occurs.
A secondly, I would also suggest that good infrastructure should be put into place for the reasons of the floods. There should also be the provision of funds to assist in the financing of the drainage, controls projects, and ways to mitigate the floods. Currently, there are no mechanisms of funding that exists to help the cities and county governments to prepare in case of flooding. The cost of recovering the damages caused by the floods is higher than the one used in prevention measures.
The last change that I would like to recommend is to permit a person to hold offices that are more than one and act as a municipal judge at the same time. This change would be able to give room for the election of more judges, thus allowing the people of Texas to elect more qualified judges who can oversee the violations of ordinances.
