Enact legislation that amends the Transportation Code to restrict TxDoT from charging municipalities for project overruns on projects in which a municipality has no supervisory control.

Any Texas Department of Transportation (TxDoT) project affecting a municipality requires that the municipality cover all project overruns. A municipality is not allowed to be a participant in the management of a project that affects a municipality. A municipality is not allowed to comment on contract bids awarded. At this time, if there is an overrun, TxDoT does not assume the cost of completing the project, and the cost is passed on to the municipality. If a municipality does not have any input on a project done by TxDoT, then why should the municipality be penalized for these overruns
