Council casts votes for Collin County Central Appraisal District board candidates
Summary
Council reviewed candidate outreach and cast their 17 allotted votes for the Collin County Central Appraisal District board, allocating 9 votes to one candidate and 8 to another; the motion passed unanimously.
City staff informed the council that the Collin County Central Appraisal District had asked municipalities to cast their votes for five open one‑year positions; the City of Murphy has 17 votes to allocate. Council members discussed candidates, referenced outreach from an incumbent (Richard Grady) and settled on allocating the votes between two candidates — 9 votes and 8 votes respectively — then approved the motion to cast those votes unanimously. “Collin County Central Appraisal District contacted us to request that you all cast your votes for the Board of Directors,” the staff representative said as the item was introduced.
There was brief discussion about incumbency and outreach from candidates; the council's final motion named the incumbent Richard (Rick) Grady and another candidate (Lindsey Bueller) as the recipients of the allocated votes. The motion carried with all members voting in favor as recorded in the transcript.
