About the candidates
Two candidates are running for Place 2 on the Collin Central Appraisal District Board of Directors in the Nov. 3 election.

The background
The Collin Central Appraisal District sets the value of property in Collin County each year and administers tax exemptions.
The district does not set taxes. It determines the value of each property so taxing entities, like cities and school districts, can calculate how much tax each property owner owes.
The district’s board is made up of eight at-large members plus the county tax assessor-collector.
The board supervises the district’s operations by performing administrative duties such as:
Places 1, 2 and 3 on the district’s board are all on the ballot for Nov. 3, but Place 1 incumbent Randal Shinn and Place 3 candidate Joe Corcoran are running unopposed.
