For the first time, Texas voters are directly choosing some of the people who will oversee the property tax appraisal process.
Before now the appraisal boards were made up of an elected county tax assessor-collector and a board of members appointed by the taxing units . A new state law passed in 2023 restructures the appraisal districts to have nine members -- the tax assessor, five appointed members, and three elected non-partisan members who each serve four-year terms.
An appraisal district is a subdivision of the state and they are governed by its own board. Each appraisal district has a chief and a board of directors. The nine-member board is made up of the tax assessor, five members appointed by the members of the taxing units in the district, and, as of May 2024, three members elected by voters. The funding for the appraisal district comes from all of the taxing units, not just the county government.
