Chapter 504 is silent as to the qualifications of a board member other than "appointed by the governing body" Therefore, the provisions of qualifications in EDC A's bylaws of "at least eighteen (18) years of age and residents of Simonton, Texas and/or Fort Bend County, Texas" does not conflict with State law. The bylaws are allowed to be more restrictive on qualifications. For EDC B: Chapter 505 of the Texas Local Government Code speaks to EDC Bs. Chapter 505 has express restrictive qualifications. ireference specifically Sec. 505.052 which says, in part, (b) Each director of a Type B corporation authorized to be created by a municipality with a population of less than (2) be a resident of the county in which the major part of the area of the 20,000 must: (1) be a resident of the municipality; municipality is located; or (3) reside: (A) within 10 miles of the municipality's boundaries; and (B) ina a county bordering the county in which most of the area of the municipality is located.
