Aaron Flores, city secretary, briefed the council on a ballot for the Dallas Central Appraisal District (DCAD) board of directors and confirmed that Farmers Branch is entitled to 14 votes that may be allocated among nominees. After brief discussion about experience and continuity, a motion was moved and seconded to split the city’s 14 votes, allocating seven votes for Pauline Medrano and seven votes for Clyde Hairston.
