BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF TEXAS:
SECTION 1. Section 51.002(f-1), Property Code, is amended
to read as follows:
(f-1) A [If a county maintains an Internet website, the]
county shall prominently [must] post a notice of sale filed with the
county clerk under Subsection (b)(2) on the county's Internet
website on a page where the county posts other auction information
and that is publicly available for viewing without charge or
registration. Along with each notice of sale posted under this
subsection, the county must post the date, time, and location of the

post on the county's Internet website the form a person must use in
that county to request a statement under Subsection (c), except
that if the county assessor-collector permits a person to use a form
prescribed by the comptroller for that purpose, the county
assessor-collector may post a link to the location on the
comptroller's Internet website where the form may be viewed instead
of posting the form.
SECTION 3. This Act takes effect September 1, 2023.
