RE: FILLING OF VACANCY ON BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE

Dear Mr. Owens:
Pursuant to the provlslons of the Texas Property Code and resolutions adopted in
1981 by at least three-fourths of the taxing units entitled to vote on the appoint-
ment of the members of the Board of Directors of the Harris County Appraisal District,
an election is being conducted by the County Clerk to fill the vacancy created by the
resignation of Mr. Fred Hartman, Chairman of the Board of Directors.
It is the right and the responsibility of the governing bodies of all cities and towns,
other than the City of Houston, participating in the District to select a person to
fill the unexpired portion of the term to which Mr. Hartman was elected.
Prior to November 1, 1984, nominations to fill said vacancy were received in the
office of the County Clerk. The names of those nominees are:
MARTA GREYTOK
GARY JONES
SAMUEL D. SIMS
The governing body of each such city and town shall be entitled to one vote for the
candidate of its choice whose name appears above. The vote shall be expressed by
resolution of each such governing body. The resolution or a certified copy thereof
shall then be delivered by the presiding officer of such governing body to the
County Clerk on or before November 30, 1984. (Resolution is enclosed).

The County Clerk will then count the votes, declare the candidate who receives the
highest number of votes elected, and, prior to December 15, 1984, submit the results
of such election to the governing body of each such city and town, to the candidates
nominated, and to the Secretary of the Board of Directors of the Harris County
Appraisal District. In the event of a tie vote, the same will be resolved by a
method of chance chosen by the County Clerk.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. Should you have any questions regarding
the procedure discussed herein, please call my Election Department at 221-6411.
Respectfully submitted,
