Texas Health and Safety Code 221.028 – Committees
(a) If permitted by the articles of incorporation or bylaws, the board of directors, by resolution adopted by a majority of directors in office, may designate one or more committees consisting of two or more directors to exercise the board’s authority in the management of the development corporation to the extent provided by the resolution, articles of incorporation, or bylaws. The designation of a committee or delegation of authority to a committee does not relieve the board of directors or an individual director of a responsibility imposed by law.
(b) Other committees not exercising the authority of the board of directors in the management of the development corporation may be designated. Those committees may be, but need not be, limited to directors, and shall be designated and appointed by:
(1) the board of directors by resolution of a majority of directors adopted at a meeting at which a quorum is present; or
(2) the president, if authorized by the articles of incorporation, bylaws, or a resolution of a majority of the board of directors adopted at a meeting at which a quorum is present.
