SECTION 1. Section 6.05(d), Tax Code, is amended to read as

follows:

(d) Except as provided by Section 6.0501, the chief

appraiser is entitled to compensation as provided by the budget

adopted by the board of directors.
No portion of the

provided by Section 6.0501, the chief appraiser may employ and

compensate professional, clerical, and other personnel as provided

by the budget, with the exception of a general counsel to the

Act does not receive the vote necessary for immediate effect, this

Act takes effect September 1, 2025.
