Request that the County Judge execute a Memorandum of Understanding with the Toll Road Authority (HCTRA) to establish a cooperative framework between Harris County Purchasing Department (HCPD) and HCTRA to ensure the efficient, transparent, and compliant procurement of goods and services in support of departmental operations.
Harris County asks the County Judge to sign an agreement with HCTRA to improve how both agencies buy goods and services.
Harris County Commissioners Court introduced this item on June 12, 2026. It asks the County Judge to sign an agreement with the Harris County Toll Road Authority (HCTRA). The agreement would set up a shared framework between the Harris County Purchasing Department and HCTRA. The goal is to make buying goods and services more efficient, clear, and compliant with rules for both departments.
This agreement would shape how Harris County buys goods and services for toll road operations. Residents who use toll roads or pay county taxes may have an interest in how procurement rules are shared between agencies.
