City staff told the Waxahachie City Council that nominations for two one-year appointed director positions on the Ellis Appraisal District (ECAD) Board of Directors are due soon. The ECAD representative said current directors Rick Keeler and Walter Erwin have indicated interest in reappointment. The city reported it holds 154 votes (about 7.7% of the boards voting pool) and that approximately 667 votes are required for election under the current allocation math.
Council discussed timing for nominations and agreed to table the resolution for candidate nominations until the Oct. 6 meeting to provide time for member recommendations and to meet the ECAD nomination deadline.
Formal action: Council voted to table the resolution for candidate nominations for the ECAD Board of Directors to the Oct. 6 meeting.
Why it matters: The citys appointed votes on the appraisal-district board affect local representation in property-value administration and board governance.
