During the recent Benbrook City Council meeting, a candidate for the Tarrant Appraisal District (TAD) Board of Directors presented their qualifications and vision for the role. The candidate emphasized their unique experience with the Appraisal Review Board (ARB), which plays a crucial role in assisting property owners with their appraisal protests.

The candidate highlighted that, as of July 2024, the TAD Board of Directors will appoint ARB members for two-year terms. They expressed a commitment to bringing clarity and understanding to the ARB process, which they believe is essential for enhancing the governance of the appraisal district. Notably, the candidate pointed out that no current board members or other candidates possess similar experience.

Since January 2025, the candidate has actively participated in TAD's closed-door meetings, representing various entities that supported their candidacy in the previous election, including cities and school districts across the region. They outlined a plan to implement recent changes from the 89th legislative session, focusing on uniform and equal appraisals to ensure fair treatment for all taxpayers and taxing entities.

The candidate concluded by stating that their top priority would be the accuracy and integrity of the tax roll, underscoring their dedication to improving the appraisal process for the benefit of the community. This commitment to transparency and fairness in property taxation is expected to resonate with residents concerned about equitable treatment in property assessments.
