Houston and Harris County clerk Anita Rodeheaver lost appeals to the Supreme Court over how local property tax appraisal boards are formed. The ruling involves the 1979 Texas Property Tax Code requiring a five member board elected by taxing units and a three fourths rule to alter board size or voting methods. Harris County saw 43 taxing units seek to shift from five to nine directors and to switch voting strength from tax dollars to population.
