Background and Discussion:

Probate Court 3 requests that Harris County consider equitable parking solutions for certain employees of the downtown division.  An aspirational goal would be to provide parking for all staff of the Probate Courts; Probate Court 3 employees work in the office every day.  Managing the movement in parking has become an administrative drain; therefore, having a method to provide a parking allowance and removing the administrative burden is the desired result. To provide employees a choice of parking location, this allowance will provide $100 per month directly to employees.

 

Expected Impact:

This request will provide a parking allowance to approximately 8 employees.  The current fiscal year cost is approximately $4000.00.  The annual fiscal cost of the allowance is approximately $9,600.00.
