Mayor Wilkerson to propose resolution rejecting CAD budget amendment after missing properties found
Summary
Mayor Wilkerson told the council he will bring a resolution at the next meeting to reject the Central Appraisal District's proposed budget amendment after staff discovered 17 properties had been omitted from the tax roll, raising concerns about fairness and repeated funding requests.
Mayor John "JW" Wilkerson said he attended a recent Central Appraisal District (CAD) meeting and expressed concern that 17 properties were omitted from the tax roll, shifting a disproportionate burden onto current taxpayers. He said he will bring a formal resolution to the next council meeting asking the city to reject the CAD's proposed budget amendment and to send a clear message about the city's position.
"I intend to bring a resolution to the next council meeting to reject the CAD's proposed budget amendment," the mayor said, explaining that retroactively seeking back taxes would be impractical and likely provoke resident backlash. The mayor urged the council to pursue a firm stance and suggested the city proceed based on current circumstances while seeking accountability from the CAD. No formal action was taken at the April 8 meeting beyond the mayor's announcement; the matter will return on the next meeting agenda.
