CITY COUNCIL MEMORANDUM
 
City Council Meeting: June 20, 2023
Department: City Secretary
Subject: Resolution 23-R-51 - Consideration and/or action by the City Council of the City of Schertz, Texas, approving a resolution nominating a candidate to fill the vacancy on the Comal Appraisal District Board of Directors. (S.Williams)

BACKGROUND

At the meeting of May 24, 2023, the Board of Directors accepted the resignation of Brad Howell and authorized the Chief Appraiser to notify each taxing unit entitled to vote by resolution to fill the vacancy.

Section 6.03 (1) of the Texas Property Tax Code states:
(l) If a vacancy occurs on the board of directors other than a vacancy in the position held by a county assessor-collector serving as a nonvoting director, each taxing unit that is entitled to vote by this section may nominate by resolution adopted by its governing body a candidate to fill the vacancy. The unit shall submit the name of its nominee to the chief appraiser within 45 days after notification from the board of directors of the existence of the vacancy, and the chief appraiser shall prepare and deliver to the board of directors within the next five days a list of the nominees. The board of directors shall elect by majority vote of its members one of the nominees to fill the vacancy.

If the City of Schertz intends to submit a nominee, we need to deliver a resolution naming their nominee to the Comal Appraisal District office by 5:00 p.m. on Monday, July 10, 2023.
