dc.description.abstract | The State-owned submerged lands and islands, comprising
some 1,500,000 acres of land, and their natural resources constitute an
important and valuable property right belonging to all the people of Texas.
It is the belief of the Committee that the value of such lands and resources
as public property for fishing, hunting, recreation, health and other uses
in which the public at large may participate and enjoy should be considered
as paramount, and private development should be approved only if it does
not significantly impair such values. Further, it is the view of this
Com-mittee that such lands should not be sold except by express authorization
of the Legislature. The Committee is of the opinion, however, that in
some areas private development of these lands would not materially interfere
with or affect the public interest and that in such cases an executive
agency of the State should be authorized to lease the lands for industrial
purposes if the county or city, as the case may be, approves such lease. | |
