Members of the Hays County Citizens Elections Commission could be appointed this week.
On Tuesday morning, the Hays County Commissioners Court will discuss and take possible action to appoint members to the commission, which was created in September “to serve Hays County as an independent advisory commission in the area of effectively identifying voting center locations and assessing the locations after each election period.”
The commission will include the following representatives: One representative from each independent school district, including Hays CISD, San Marcos CISD, Dripping Springs ISD and Wimberley ISD; one representative from each municipality, including San Marcos, Kyle, Buda, Dripping Springs and Wimberley; one representative from each County Party Chair, including the Democratic Party and the Republican Party; Texas State University Student Party Chairs, including the Democratic Party and the Republican Party; one rural community representative; one representative of the disabled community; one representative from the League of Women Voters; and two appointed citizen representatives per member of the commissioner's court. The Elections Office will act as technical advisory to the commission.
