SPECIFIC PERFORMANCE.
Text — Current through the 89th 2nd Called Legislative Session, 2025
(a) The legislature expressly finds and determines that:
(1) the presence of a professional sports team in an approved venue project built or renovated under this chapter provides a unique value to the municipality or county that built or renovated the project that cannot be adequately valued in money; and
(2) the municipality or county that built or renovated the approved venue project would suffer irreparable injury if a professional sports team breaches its obligation to play its home games in the approved venue project as required by an agreement between the sports team and the municipality or county.
(b) An agreement described by Subsection (a)(2) shall be enforceable by specific performance in the courts of this state. A waiver of this remedy is contrary to public policy and is unenforceable and void.
