Sec. 286.030. TEMPORARY DIRECTORS
-
(a) On the date a commissioners court enters the order required by Section 286.028, the commissioners court shall also appoint the temporary directors of the district.

If the petition fails to name or state the number of directors, there are five directors.

(d) From the time the district is created under Section 286.027 until the elected directors take office, the temporary directors serve as directors of the district.
(e) The commissioners court shall fill a vacancy in the office of temporary director by appointment.
