Mayor to propose resolution rejecting CAD budget amendment after tax-roll omissions
Summary
Mayor Wilkerson announced plans to bring a resolution rejecting the Central Appraisal District's proposed budget amendment, citing discovery that 17 properties were omitted from the tax roll and concerns about repeated funding increase requests.
Mayor John "JW" Wilkerson told the council he planned to file a resolution at the next meeting rejecting the Central Appraisal District's proposed budget amendment after the discovery that 17 properties had been omitted from the tax roll.
The mayor said the omission shifted tax burdens to current taxpayers and questioned the practicality of retroactive collection; he also expressed frustration with repeated requests for funding increases from the CAD. Wilkerson intends to send a firm message and urged the council to consider rejecting the CAD amendment when it returns to the agenda.
No formal resolution was voted on April 8; the item was announced as forthcoming and the mayor asked council and staff to prepare for the next meeting.
