Court selects salary grievance committee composition and draws public members from grand jury list
Summary
Ellis County chose the composition of the salary grievance committee (six countywide elected officials plus three public members) and the County Clerk randomized the 2025 grand jury list, naming Lesley Wilson, William Sayeg and Carlos Molina as the first three public members.
County Clerk Crystal Valdez explained the statutory process under Texas Local Government Code Section 152.014 for appointing members to the salary grievance committee. The court opted to retain the traditional composition: six countywide elected officials (sheriff, tax assessor-collector, county treasurer, county clerk, district clerk, county attorney, and county judge) plus three public members drawn from the grand jury pool.
Valdez used a computer randomizer to order the grand jury list; she read the first three names aloud: Lesley Wilson, William Sayeg and Carlos Molina. The remaining 29 names will serve as alternates in the randomized order. Commissioners approved the composition option by unanimous vote; no further action was required at the meeting.
