Cheryl Delaney, Finance Director
On October 8, 2009, the City Council nominated Joan Kunkel to serve on the Travis Central Appraisal
District (TCAD) Board of Directors. Section 6.03 of the Texas Property Tax Code, states that each taxing
unit must determine their vote by resolution and submit it to the Chief Appraiser by December 15th. The
eastern jurisdictions, in which Round Rock is located, may cast one vote each for the eastern jurisdiction
nominee. This resolution will allocate Round Rock's vote to Joan Kunkel, the only nominee.
The TCAD is responsible for appraising property in the county at its market value for purposes of
property taxation. The ten -member board is instrumental in developing and maintaining an appraisal
district that is well managed and fair to both individual taxpayers and the entities that depend on
property tax revenue to fund local government operations.
