TDLR deputy executive director Brandy Myers briefed the Auctioneer Advisory Board on the impact of Senate Bill 2075, a legislative change the agency designated a strategic initiative.

Myers said SB2075 aligns advisory board terms across TDLR by creating staggered six‑year member terms and generally moves presiding‑officer terms to two years. She said the law also replaces a previously authorized slot — the administrative head’s designee from another state agency — with a position requiring a representative of an auction school. Myers said the change does not increase the board’s membership; the board will remain at seven members but with the auction‑school representative replacing the prior designee option.

Myers noted the statutory change takes effect Sept. 1. Board members asked for clarification about how the new auction‑school representative will be recruited; Myers said the vacancy posting will include the new qualification and that implementation teams at TDLR will work through the details of bill implementation.

Why it matters: the change alters the pool of eligible advisory‑board candidates by creating a seat focused on auction‑school representation and standardizes term lengths and staggering across advisory boards.

Next steps: TDLR staff said they will post the new vacancy requirement when the position is ready for recruitment and will provide updates to the board as the agency’s bill‑implementation teams complete their work.
