Background and Discussion:

On November 8, 2022, Harris County voters approved $200 million bonds for parks. Some Precincts may have already spent cash on parks. A reimbursement resolution is a way Precincts can be reimbursed for monies spent on park capital expenditures and instead be charged to commercial paper allocation from the 2022 voted authority.  Any capital expenses for the parks incurred 60 days prior to the date commissioners court approves the reimbursement resolution can be reimbursed with commercial paper.

 

Expected Impact:

Parks capital expenditures will be financed with debt rather than cash.

 

Alternative Options: N/A
