Construction Trade Advisory & Appeals Board — Oct 16, 2025: Calendar corrected; posting-of-violations policy discussed

The board met Oct. 16, 2025. A quorum was established; there was no public comment. The board approved an absence for Member Gentry (July 17, 2025) and disapproved Member Jimenez’s absences. Minutes from July 17, 2025 were approved. The 2026 meeting calendar was amended to correct two dates (January 15 and July 16). Staff reported legal counsel advised against routinely posting violations online; staff will follow Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation and Texas State Board of Plumbing Examiners practice of posting only when disciplinary action is taken and will notify the public when website infrastructure is ready. Chairman Merdes urged consideration of broader public posting practices used by the State Board of Professional Engineers. A new Assistant Director was noted in the Building Official report.
