Enrolled Bill Summary

House Bill 608 amends the Local Government Code to authorize a county judge, at a meeting of the county commissioners court to select public members of the committee to review grievances regarding the salaries and expenses of elected county or precinct officers, to make a list of alternate public members from which an appointment may be made to replace an initial selection who refuses or is unable to serve or to fill a subsequent vacancy. The bill allows the county judge to make this list by repeating the process that was used to make the initial selections at the same meeting.
