Releases |
| | | Records consist of copies of letters of appointment by
Governor Ann Richards, copies of biographical information sheets and vitae on
the appointees, press releases about the appointments, some clippings and
photographs of appointees, and a few other related records. These records cover
appointments made by Governor Ann Richards from 1991 to 1994. The Governor of
Texas appoints the Secretary of State, the Adjutant General, executive
directors of several agencies, members of numerous state boards and
commissions, ship pilots and pilot boards at ports, and regents of
universities. The Governor also fills vacancies in district attorney offices
and judgeships, and various other posts. The appointment letters are addressed
to the Secretary of State or the Texas Senate, notifying them of the governor's
appointments. The letters are brief, giving the name and address of the
appointee, the position, and the length of term of appointment. Biographical
information sheets and vitae provide personal, professional, and community
service information about the appointees. Press releases provide synopses about
the appointees and their qualifications. Most documents, except the press
releases, are duplicates of materials in the Appointments files series. Records
are arranged alphabetically by key word in the agency, board, commission, etc.
Folders for regents of colleges and universities, judgeships, and district
attorneys are filed separately, after other appointments. |

somewhat chronological. Arrangement of records from January 1992 to January
1995 is numerical, which is somewhat chronological by date received in office.

invitations from legislators separated. |

Ombudsman Files, 1990-1995
(7 ft.).
|
| Scope and Contents of the Ombudsman Files |
| Governor Ann
Richards created the Office of the Ombudsman to provide citizens with a means
to register their opinions, secure needed information, and obtain assistance
with concerns they had about state agencies, boards, and commissions through a
toll-free hotline. The office directed those concerns to the governor and other
state officials, referred citizens to sources of assistance, and, when
necessary, investigated state services to determine whether policies or
procedures needed to be changed. The Ombudsman's mission was to cut red tape
and bureaucratic stonewalling by reporting to the Governor state agencies that
failed to meet the test of the highest quality of service, efficiency, and
financial management. Annette LoVoi served as the Governor's Ombudsman during
Ann Richards' tenure in office. |
| Records are correspondence with attachments including clippings
and legal and financial documents, reports, notes, a few audiocassettes and
photographs, and a computer tape, dating from 1991 to 1995. Most of the records
are complaints (with some praise) from citizens about nursing home care,
insurance coverage, harassment, discrimination, various state agencies (such as
the Texas Employment Commission, the State Board of Insurance, and the Texas
Alcoholic Beverage Commission) and waste in state government. One box contains
several files on the Texas Alcoholic Beverage Commission's hiring practices,
the Texas Department of Health's regulation of nursing homes, and problems with
the Employees Retirement System of Texas. There are also briefings and reports
created by the Ombudsman regarding specific problems at various agencies;
correspondence and resource material on the Governor's Youth Summit, and a
computer tape of database files. Records in the first box appear to be grouped
by subject. The citizen correspondence is filed generally by year, within each
year there is no order, although it appears there was intent to file
alphabetically by correspondent. |

| Scope and Contents of the Governor's Commission on People with
Disabilities Correspondence |
| The Governor's Committee on Employment for
the Handicapped was first created by Governor Dolph Briscoe in 1978 through
Executive Order DB-40. Executive orders by governors William P. Clements in
1981 (WPC-14A) and 1987 (WPC 87-16) and Mark White in 1983 (MW-10) continued
the committee, with Executive Order MW-10 changing the name to Governor's
Committee for Disabled Persons. In 1991 the Governor's Committee on People with
Disabilities was created statutorily by Senate Bill 381, 72nd Legislature,
Regular Session in order to continue the functions of the Council on
Disabilities, which was abolished on the recommendation of the Sunset
Commission. Functions of the governor's committee set forth in SB. 381 include
monitoring the state's compliance with the Americans with Disabilities Act of
1990 (ADA), providing information to the public regarding ADA, serving as a
liaison with other organizations assisting the disabled, promoting coordination
of services for persons with disabilities, making recommendations to the
governor on programs supporting persons with disabilities, monitoring the
implementation of a long-range state plan for Texans with disabilities, and
issuing awards and other recognitions to persons and organizations making a
difference for persons with disabilities. Virginia Roberts has served as
executive director of the governor's committee since January 1981. |
| Records are correspondence and memoranda with attachments
including minutes, agenda, clippings, and printed material. Records date from
1980 to 1994 and are the correspondence files of the Governor's Committee on
People with Disabilities. Subjects include implementation of the Americans with
Disabilities Act, complaints and praise from constituents regarding
accessibility to public places, the Sunset Commission review process, a
long-range state plan for Texans with disabilities, activities of the Council
on Disabilities, mayor's committees on disabilities, conferences and workshops,
and awards ceremonies. Correspondence is arranged in reverse chronological
order by year. Within each year, correspondence is sometimes in reverse
chronological order and other years is in no particular order. |
