TDLR commission approves executive director salary increase to $235,000
Summary
Commissioners voted to raise the agency executive director's salary to $235,000, effective Sept. 1, after a motion in open session.
The Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation commission voted to increase the executive director’s salary to $235,000, with the raise effective Sept. 1, commissioners said during the meeting.
Why it matters: The commission approved the pay adjustment during open session, citing increased responsibilities tied to new program provisions and a larger agency workload.
What happened: A commissioner moved to raise the executive director’s salary to $235,000. The motion was seconded and, after brief remarks thanking staff and recognizing increased workload, commissioners took a voice vote. “All in favor, say aye. Aye. Opposed? Motion carries,” the record states.
Context and timing: Commissioners set an effective date of Sept. 1 for the adjustment during the same motion. The transcript records a short discussion acknowledging staff workload and the agency’s expanded responsibilities following recent legislative changes.
Process notes: The vote was by voice; the transcript does not include a roll-call vote or individual commissioner votes. Staff later asked for confirmation of the effective date and formalized the amendment in the motion record.
Ending: The commission directed staff to finalize the effective-date amendment and to update the record accordingly.
