HB 204 Texas House · 89th Legislature, 2nd Called Session (2025)

Relating to the governance and territory of the Harris County Flood Control District.

HB 204 clarifies the governance and territorial boundaries of the Harris County Flood Control District. It states that the district's area matches Harris County's full borders (unless modified by other state laws like the Water Code), and requires a public election by September 1, 2028, to decide if the district could expand to include neighboring counties. The bill updates the district's foundational rules while keeping the Harris County Commissioners Court as its governing body. This directly affects Harris County residents and the district's operations for flood control, water management, and drainage.
