• Boards and Commissions
• Rules applying generally and specific to SBB
• Local Government Code Chapter 54, as it relates to Quasi-Judicial Enforcement.
• Rules of Procedure
• Public Information Act
Mr. McMiliian provided an overview on the composition, terms of office, qualification for
membership, attendance, meetings, removal of member process and types of Boards.
Mr. McMillian informed the Board that members could not serve on any other City of
North Richland Hills board or commission. Chairman Crowson asked if that was correct,
as he is a Board Member for the Gas Board of Appeals. Mr. McMillian said he would
look into as it could be based on the type of Board it is and he would get back with
Substandard Building Board Meeting
February 8, 2022
Page 2 of 4
Chairman Crowson with an answer. Mr. Wait stated he was on the Library Board and he
was told he could only serve on one Board and he was removed from the Library Board.
Mr. McMillian informed the Board that Chapter 54 Texas Local Government Code
allows a Municipality to enact if they want to have a Substandard Building Board. Not
every Municipality has a Substandard Building Board. This allows a municipality to
create to the Board and enact provisions into your city code to form the Board and the
Board to carry out that function.
Mr. McMillian presented all the case types that could be presented to the Board and the
possible outcomes including civil penalties and different types of orders that can be
issued by the Board. Zoning issues sometimes come up when dealing with substandard
structures but the Substandard Building Board does not have authority over zoning.
Mr. McMillian asked Ms. Martinez if we have issues with agricultural animal. Ms.
Martinez replied yes. We actually got a call this week about a goat in a residential
neighborhood. Goats are not allowed in residential area. The resident was informed of
the violation and the goat has to be removed from the property.
Mr. McMillian went over the Rules of Procedures which included what the quorum is,
types of action the Board can take, procedures on the hearing process, questions that
come across the Board, what is required in the notices that go out and if a Board
member is disqualified from voting on a matter.
Mr. McMillian informed the Board that under the law, Public Information is considered
any information that is written, produced, collected, assembled, or maintained under a
law or ordinance or in connection with the transaction of official business by a
governmental body and for a governmental body owns the information and has a right
to access to the information. Public information can be a book, paper, letter, document,
e-mail, Internet posting, text message, instant message, other electronic
communication, printout, photograph, film, tape, microfiche, microfilm, Photostat, sound
recording, map, and drawing and a voice, data, or video representation held in
computer memory.
Mr. McMillian advised the Board to be careful conducting Board business on personal
devices as those emails/text become city property and if requested are subject to
disclosure under the Public Information. Mr. Crowson stated this is why he set up a
separate email address to conduct city business. It is so important to get personal
emails separate. Mr. McMillian stated that was great idea as it makes everything easier.
Mr. McMillian went over how public information is requested and the penalties for
violations of the Public Information Act.
