Harris County OMB reports monthly on unpaid federal grant balances, capped at $100M to reduce financial risk.
The Harris County Office of Management and Budget gives Commissioners Court a monthly update on unpaid federal grant money — called Accounts Receivable (AR). The county set a $100 million cap on this balance to limit financial risk from federal funding delays. This July 9, 2026 agenda item (File 26-4521) continues that monthly review. Questions can be sent to Mary.Cesar@harriscountytx.gov.
Harris County tracks unpaid federal grant money owed to it. If that balance gets too high, the county could face cash flow problems that affect local services. This monthly check keeps the balance under a $100M cap.
