Request for approval of the issuance of a purchase order in the approximate amount of $13,000 to Winpark for the lease of 18 parking spaces at 1218 Prairie Street for the period of May 1, 2026 - September 30, 2026.

Harris County needs short-term parking for county employees or operations near downtown. Leasing spaces from a private company is a common way to fill gaps when county-owned parking isn't available nearby.

This is a financial authorization request — a formal vote by the five-member Commissioners Court to approve spending roughly $13,000 on a five-month parking lease. The vendor is Winpark, a parking management company. The item was introduced on June 1, 2026, and is filed as case number 26-3833.
