Honorable Kenneth D. Gaver, M.D. - Page 2 (H-1037) The Legislature has considered and rejected legislation which would expressly authorize community centers to purchase real property. Senate Bill No. 350, 65th Leg., Senate Bill No. 204, 64th Leg. In light of the statutory language and the failure of the Legislature to amend such language, in our opinion community centers do not have authority to purchase real property. SUMMARY Community centers for mental health and mental retardation services do not have statutory authority to purchase real property. ery truly yours, OH Attorney General of Texas APPROVED: DAVID M.
