Nearly 400 public servants make up the Office of Harris County Commissioner Rodney Ellis. Together, they keep roads and parks in shape, connect neighbors to county services, shape policy, run youth and senior programs, and more. This is your team — here to serve every Harris County resident fairly and equitably.
The office is organized into seven main teams. Development and Infrastructure handles roads, bridges, parks, trails, community centers, and traffic signs. Community Relations acts as the bridge between the precinct office and residents like you. The Policy team researches and recommends county policy to Commissioner Ellis. Programs runs community-focused events and services for youth, adults, and seniors. Communications keeps you informed through social media, email, video, and the office website. Human Resources supports the staff who serve you. Administration keeps everything running behind the scenes. Chief of Staff Brandon Dudley leads the full team alongside a group of department directors.
Use this overview as a guide the next time you need county help. Match your issue to the right department — infrastructure concerns go to Development and Infrastructure, neighborhood questions go to Community Relations, and so on. Reaching the correct team from the start saves you time and gets you answers faster.
