Bill Summary
Relating to the regulation of food production on single-family residential lots by a municipality or property owners' association.
AI Summary
This bill amends the Local Government Code and the Property Code to allow for the growing of fruits and vegetables, as well as the raising of a limited number of domestic fowls, rabbits, and beehives on single-family residential lots, regardless of municipal ordinances or property owners' association restrictive covenants. The bill also allows for cottage food production operations on such residential lots. However, municipalities and property owners' associations can still impose reasonable regulations on these activities, such as limits on the number of animals or beehives that exceed the minimum allowed by the bill.
