Cleburne's ETJ Is a Parcel-by-Parcel Line
Cleburne's ETJ can reach up to two miles past city limits. But it is not a neat ring. Some parcels have been released, and nearby cities help shape the line. Use the live map for the parcel in front of you. Cleburne does not zone land in its ETJ.
Since January 1, 2024, Johnson County has handled most new plats there. Some older cases may still be with the city. Police, fire, roads, water, and sewer may each use a different line. Being in the ETJ alone does not add Cleburne property tax. Buying or splitting land? Compare the city map with the taxing units in the appraisal record, then ask the county which plat path fits.
