Williamson County names Catherine Totti interim tax assessor‑collector, effective July 21

After returning from executive session on July 14, the Williamson County commissioners voted unanimously to appoint Catherine Totti as the county's tax assessor‑collector effective July 21, pending receipt of required bonds and a scheduled swearing‑in.

Commissioner Cynthia Long made the motion to appoint Totti and proposed that the swearing‑in and acceptance of bonds be placed as the first item on the agenda for the date of the appointment. Commissioners praised the quality of candidates who applied and thanked those who interviewed, noting the selection was difficult because of the field of applicants. The appointment passed 4–0.

Implementation steps identified during the meeting include obtaining the appropriate bonds and arranging a formal swearing‑in event; the court directed staff to place the acceptance of bonds and swearing‑in on the July 21 agenda.
