Dear Mayor McMinn:

Senate Bill 312 as enacted by the legislature on April 23,
1987 to become effective on January 1, 1988, amended Section 6.05
of the Property Tax Code. In effect it further clarified that
the appraisal office must be located in the county for which the
district is established and defined the method by which real
property and acquisition of buildings or other improvements must
be approved by the taxing units.
Specifically, in Subsection (b) it calls for the board of
directors of the appraisal district by resolution to propose a
property transaction which requires approval of the taxing units.
The chief appraiser then notifies the presiding officer of each
governing body entitled to vote on the proposal by delivering a
copy of the board's resolution, together with information showing
the costs of other available alternatives to the proposal. On or
before the 30th day after the date the presiding officer receives
notice of the proposal, the governing body of a taxing unit by
resolution may approve or disapprove the proposal. If a
governing body fails to act on or before that 30th day or fails
to file its resolution with the chief appraiser on or before the
loth day after that 30th day, the proposal is treated as if it
were disapproved by the governing body.
Subsection (d) states that the acquisition of real property
by an appraisal district before January 1, 1988, may be validated
before March 1, 1988, in the manner provided by Subsection (b)
(above) of this section for the acquisition of real property.
Since the property currently owned by the Lubbock Central
Appraisal District was acquired prior to January 1, 1988,
Subsection (d) applies to our situation and calls for the
procedures in Subsection (b) to be carried out in accordance with
the mandates of Senate Bill 312.
We are providing the presiding officer of each taxing unit
entitled to vote with the resolutions, minutes, value estimates,
cost comparisons and a breakdown of how much each entity
contributed to the purchase of our current offices in 1982.
Please review the contents and inform your governing body of the
necessity to take action on the matter of whether
the Lubbock Central Appraisal District should continue
1715 - 26th STREET P.O. BOX 10542 LUBBOCK, TEXAS 79408 (806) 762-5000

ownership of the existing office or whether it is the taxing
unit's desire for the district to relocate either through lease
or acquisition of some other real property.
Resolutions from the governing bodies of three -fourths of
the taxing units entitled to vote on the appointment of board
members must be received by the chief appraiser no later than the
loth day after the 30th day the notification is delivered to the
taxing units. In this case action must be taken prior to January
31, 1988 and a copy of the resolution or ordinance delivered to
the chief appraiser prior to February 9, 1988.
Again, we have included the materials from the 1982 purchase
for your review and we are available to provide any further
information or clarification that you might need. If you would
like to discuss the matter, please call Roger Sage or me at your
earliest convenience.
