On July 9, 2026, Harris County Commissioners Court will consider a request from the Office of Management and Budget to issue Permanent Improvement Tax and Revenue Certificates of Obligation, Series 2026A. These are a type of long-term borrowing used to fund construction, repairs, and improvements to county facilities and infrastructure. The order would set interest rates, terms, and the sale of the certificates, and would pledge county property tax revenue and other revenues to repay them.
Harris County plans to borrow money by issuing certificates of obligation. Repayment would come partly from property taxes paid by county residents. Neighbors may want to know how much is borrowed and what it funds.
