Ellis County appraiser requests short extension to valuation‑notice mailing; commissioners accept update
Summary
Ellis County Appraiser Eugene Rupp told commissioners the office requested a state extension to move valuation‑notice mailings from March 1 to March 17 because of recent staffing changes and the appraiser's temporary mobility issues; he said he expected to meet the extended date but did not rule out another extension.

Eugene Rupp, Ellis County appraiser, told the commission his office requested a state extension to mail valuation notices, moving the deadline from March 1 to March 17.
Rupp said the office lost staff early in the year and has since hired replacements, but that training new employees takes time. He also reported personal mobility issues that affected his ability to complete work on the original schedule.
"I'm very hopeful we will meet that, March 17 extension deadline," Rupp said, while noting he would not entirely rule out asking for a second extension if circumstances required it.
Commissioners accepted the update and offered well wishes. No formal action was required; the appraisal office will proceed under the approved state extension timeline and return to the commission if additional changes are necessary.
