HCAD, Director, At-Large, Place 3: who gets your vote?
What this role does
HCAD directors select the chief appraiser, adopt the appraisal district’s budget, and set district policies. They do not decide individual property values or overrule appraisal protests.
This board governs the appraisal agency; it is not the appraisal review board that hears property-owner protests.
- Chief appraiser selection
- District budget and policies
- Not individual appraisal decisions
