YES! BARW, we do have something to vote for in
the May 4th Uniform and Special Elections.
Early voting April 22nd – April 30th
By way of explanation, I found the article by Charles Bain at the Texas Scorecard.
Last November’s election brought changes to the makeup of the Harris County Appraisal District board, finally giving voters an opportunity to weigh in. Voter-approved Proposition 4 included a provision allowing for the election of appraisal district board members in counties with a population of 75,000 or more. HCAD’s board, which, until now, consisted of the county tax assessor-collector and appointed members of the various governing bodies of the county, city, school districts, and community colleges, will add three new elected members to its ranks.
Established in 1980, HCAD is the largest appraisal district in the state and one of the largest in the country. It annually appraises the 1.9 million parcels of property for property tax purposes for each of the nearly 1,000 taxing units within its boundaries.
The election will be held on May 4, and new members will take office on July 1 for a term of service that ends December 31, 2026. We will be voting for three At-Large board positions. Place 1, 2, 3. Here is a link to the ballot:
