Under Texas Government Code § 2306.930, the state department responsible for overseeing migrant labor housing has the authority to suspend or revoke an operator's license if that operator violates the applicable subchapter or its implementing rules. Any suspension or revocation proceeding must follow the formal contested-case hearing procedures established under Texas Government Code Chapter 2001 and the department's own rules. Notably, any such hearing must take place in the county where the affected migrant labor housing facility is physically located, keeping the process geographically tied to the community involved.
Plain English — not legal advice.
Operators of migrant labor housing facilities in Texas should be aware that § 2306.930 gives the department direct authority to suspend or revoke their license for regulatory violations. A compliant operator generally maintains thorough records of adherence to all subchapter requirements and department rules, so that if a contested-case proceeding is initiated, documentation of compliance is readily available. Because any hearing under this section is held in the county where the facility is located, operators typically ensure that local records and representatives are accessible for such proceedings.

Migrant labor housing residents may find it relevant that § 2306.930 provides a meaningful enforcement mechanism: the state department can suspend or revoke a facility operator's license for violations of the rules governing that housing. If residents believe conditions at their facility violate applicable standards, they may consider filing a complaint with the Texas Department of Housing and Community Affairs, which administers this program. Tenant-rights organizations familiar with migrant labor housing can help residents understand what violations may trigger a license action and what options are generally available to those affected.
