ON THE AGENDAHarris County Commissioners Court · 2025-10-16

The Court is asked to delegate authority to the County Engineer or their designee to approve, approve with conditions, or reject plats, and to update the Harris County regulations governing infrastructure approval and acceptance accordingly.

What it means for you

If approved, decisions on plat approvals for new developments in Harris County could be made by the County Engineer rather than requiring full Commissioners Court action, and county infrastructure regulations would be amended to reflect this change.
