Taxation without representation should be illegal

The Falls County Tax Board has five representatives. Precinct 1 and 2 have four representatives. Precinct 3 and 4 have one representative. This is lopsided. The Appraisal Review Board has five representatives which are appointed by the Tax Board. Four of them are from Precinct 1 and 2, one from Precinct 3 and 4. This is lopsided and unfair. I think that something needs to change. Perhaps the Commissioners Court could appoint one from each precinct at least. This way everyone could have representation.
