McCrutcheon told The Texan that she expected to have a learning curve, but that her priorities included conducting an audit and an analysis of the ARB.

“An audit of the tax roll would make sure that people who are getting exemptions should be getting those exemptions,” said McCrutcheon. “And as far as the appraisal review board, making sure that people are getting fair assessments when they do come before the board. I’ve had a lot of horror stories about the process, and people say they just aren’t listening.”
