Bexar County allocates 304 appraisal-district votes to nominated candidate
Summary
The Commissioners Court approved a resolution allocating the county's 304 appraisal-district votes to the previously nominated Reverend Dr. Ralph E. Barksdale for the Bexar County Appraisal District Board of Directors.
The Bexar County Commissioners Court voted Dec. 9 to allocate the county's appraisal-district votes to the candidate it nominated in October, Reverend Dr. Ralph E. Barksdale. Commissioner Calvert moved to approve the resolution, Commissioner Moody seconded, and the court voted "aye"; the presiding judge stated the motion carried.
The presiding judge explained the process: after local governments nominate preferred candidates, the appraisal district publishes a slate and asks each body to allocate its votes to a preferred candidate. “Doctor Barksdale has been present engaged as a member of the board of directors and I believe that our community will be well served with him fulfilling another term,” the presiding judge said. The court discussed the allocation as 304 votes in this meeting record; the judge's remarks included both “300 votes” and “304 votes” in close sequence, which creates an inconsistency in the transcript on the precise vote total reported.
The resolution allocates the county's votes to Reverend Dr. Ralph E. Barksdale for the next term on the Bexar County Appraisal District Board of Directors. No amendments or conditions were recorded in the discussion; the court adopted the resolution by voice vote during the work session.
