(b) The presiding officer of the executive committee shall send the order and map required under Subsection (a) to the comptroller by certified or registered mail. (c) The order must include the effective date of the tax. (d) The comptroller may delay implementation of the sales and use tax in the added territory for one calendar quarter by notifying the presiding officer of the executive committee before the 11th day after the date on which the comptroller receives the order and map under this section that the comptroller requires more time. If implementation is delayed, the tax takes effect on the first day of the second calendar quarter that begins after the date on which the comptroller receives the order and map. This subsection does not apply to an authority created by a contiguous municipality. (e) On the date of annexation of territory to a subregional authority created by a contiguous municipality, a tax imposed by the authority takes effect in the added territory.
