Background and Discussion:
The Flood Control District entered into an interlocal agreement with Harris County (Agreement 2023-30) to engage multiple County departments for various services including Property Acquisition, Security, Law Enforcement, Fleet, Information Technology, Legal, Wage Rate Compliance, Fire Marshall’s Office, and Housing & Community Development. This agreement replaced individual agreements providing all these services in the past.
In response to direction from Commissioners Court to identify ways to reduce administrative timelines and expedite the CDBG program, the Flood Control District is proposing to amend the interlocal agreement to add six dedicated resources from the Purchasing Department to support HCFCD’s CDBG program and other operations through FY2026, with an additional 5 positions proposed in FY2027.
Expected Impact:
This ILA is the governing framework for the provision of various needed services to Flood Control District from Harris County departments. This amendment will provide dedicated services from Harris County Purchasing Department that will be used to expedite CDBG program delivery.
Alternative Options:
Reinstitute multiple individual agreements with Harris County departments, and/or develop capabilities for those services in-house.
