Williamson County commissioners will appoint a new tax assessor-collector for the county following the retirement of Larry Gaddes.
The county is currently accepting applications for the position.
What happened
Commissioners accepted Gaddes’ resignation at a June 9 meeting, after nine years with the county. He is one of nine tax assessor-collectors in Texas to earn the designation of certified tax administrator, according to county documents.
Gaddes will take on a new role as deputy executive director of the Texas Department of Motor Vehicles, according to a county news release.
How it works
The commissioners will interview candidates and appoint a new person to fill the role until the November 2026 election. Those interested in the role can apply by sending a resume and qualifications to [email protected].
The executive committees of the local Democratic and Republican parties will vote to nominate an individual to place on the November ballot. Voters will then decide on a new Williamson County tax assessor-collector who will serve a term until Dec. 31, 2028.
