The Fort Bend Central Appraisal District (CAD) is overseen by a three-member Board of Directors, selected by local taxing entities such as counties, cities, school districts, and special districts. These board members advocate for the interests of the taxing authorities, setting the direction for key decisions, including hiring the chief appraiser and approving the annual budget.
