The Texas Constitution, common law, and the property’s status as surplus must be considered by an independent school district in determining whether the district may enter a long-term ground lease with a private entity that intends to develop the district’s surplus property for noneducational purposes that are expected to yield financial benefits that exceed the property’s current sale-value.
