Background and Discussion:

On May 22, 2025, Harris County Commissioners Court approved a resolution, on behalf of the Flood Control District, a Conservation and Reclamation District, to be permitted to participate in the 2025 election for the Harris Central Appraisal District (HCAD) Board of Directors, as prescribed by state law. As such, Commissioners Court, on behalf of the district, may now nominate a candidate who will then be listed on the ballot in the fall taxing unit election to choose HCAD directors. The ballot will include candidates nominated later this year by the other voting taxing units. Additional action relating to the HCAD director elections will be brought for the Court’s consideration and action in the coming months.

 

Expected Impact:

Approval of the resolution guarantees the Flood Control District’s entitlement to nominate and vote for candidates in the upcoming Appraisal District director elections as provided by state law.
