Relating to the authority of sheriffs and constables to enter into contracts to provide law enforcement services in certain counties and county financial authority in relation to sheriffs and constables in certain counties.

This bill allows sheriffs and constables in Texas counties with populations of 3.3 million or more to contract directly with local entities - such as homeowner associations, businesses, or property owners - to provide law enforcement services in specific areas they control (e.g., neighborhoods or commercial zones they own or manage). It explicitly prohibits county commissioners courts from blocking these contracts or dictating their terms. The law applies only to Texas’ largest counties, including Harris, Dallas, and Tarrant. It clarifies existing authority without creating new funding or altering standard law enforcement responsibilities.
