Harris County Commissioners Court approved multiple out-of-state travel and training requests for county employees under File 26-2092. County policy requires full Commissioners Court approval before public funds pay for any out-of-state travel. The item was introduced March 17, 2026, and passed June 11, 2026. Specific departments, employees, destinations, and costs are not available on the filing page alone. For details, contact Mary.Cesar@harriscountytx.gov or review the June 11, 2026 agenda packet at agenda.harriscountytx.gov.
County tax dollars pay for employee travel outside Texas. State law requires Commissioners Court to vote before spending public funds on out-of-state trips. This vote puts that spending on the public record.
