Leander ISD to nominate John Havenstrite to Travis Central Appraisal District board
Summary
Because Senate Bill 2 resets TCAD appointments, Leander ISD administration recommended the Board adopt a resolution nominating John Havenstrite to the Travis Central Appraisal District Board. The packet includes eligibility requirements and a timeline for nominations and vote submission.
Administration explained that changes from Senate Bill 2 require that the terms of all currently appointed members of the Travis Central Appraisal District Board expire at year‑end and that taxing units nominate candidates for the new board. The district packet described eligibility (resident of Travis County and two‑year residency in the district prior to taking office), submission timelines (nomination resolutions due Oct. 14; ballots prepared Oct. 30; votes due mid‑December), and Leander ISD's voting entitlement (155 votes for TCAD). John Havenstrite was presented as the district’s nominee; his biography in the packet describes prior municipal finance experience, service on the Eanes ISD Board of Trustees, and current role at the We Are Blood nonprofit.
Administration recommended the Board approve the resolution nominating John Havenstrite. The packet included sample motion language and contact information for the Travis Central Appraisal District's chief appraiser. The agenda materials do not contain the Board’s recorded vote or final outcome.
