Clifton ISD trustees adopt resolution disapproving Bosque Central Appraisal District's 2026 operations budget
Summary
After public comments, the Clifton ISD Board adopted a resolution formally disapproving the Bosque Central Appraisal District's approved 2026 operations budget, voting 5-2. Board members cited reserve levels and transparency concerns during discussion.
The Clifton ISD Board on Sept. 15 adopted a resolution disapproving the Bosque Central Appraisal District's approved 2026 operations budget, passing the measure 5-2.
Board discussion followed public comments from representatives of the group "Fair Appraisals for Bosque County," who raised concerns about the BCAD 2026 budget during the open forum. "A motion was made to adopt a resolution to disapprove the 2026 budget of the Bosque County Central Appraisal District," the record shows; Heather Willmann moved the resolution and Nick Brown seconded it. The motion passed with Brown, Steve Conrad, Alex Montes, Julie New and Willmann voting yea and Matthew Domel and Josh Ritzmann voting nay.
During the board's deliberations trustees compared BCAD budgets from other Texas counties and discussed the size of BCAD's reserve fund and transparency in the appraisal district's budget process. The board recorded the vote and adopted the resolution as a formal expression of disapproval; the resolution itself and any next steps for communicating the board's position to BCAD were included in the meeting packet but not read verbatim in the transcript.
The action is a formal local-government statement of concern; the transcript does not record additional binding penalties or immediate financial steps by Clifton ISD against BCAD. The board did not ask for or record additional staff directives in open session beyond adopting the resolution.
