REMOVAL.
Text — Current through the 89th 2nd Called Legislative Session, 2025
(a) It is a ground for removal from the commission if a member:

(2) violates a prohibition under Section 434.004;
(3) fails to attend at least half of the regularly scheduled commission meetings held in a calendar year, excluding meetings held while the person was not a member of the commission without an excuse approved by a majority vote of the commission; or
(4) cannot, because of illness or disability, discharge the member's duties for a substantial part of the member's term.
(b) The validity of an action of the commission is not affected by the fact that it is taken when a ground for removal of a commission member exists.
(c) If the executive director has knowledge that a potential ground for removal exists, the executive director shall notify the presiding officer of the commission of the potential ground. The presiding officer shall then notify the governor and the attorney general that a potential ground for removal exists. If the potential ground for removal involves the presiding officer, the executive director shall notify the next highest ranking officer of the commission, who shall then notify the governor and the attorney general that a potential ground for removal exists.
