Request by the Toll Road Authority for approval of an Interlocal Agreement with Harris County Emergency Services District No. 13 to provide reimbursement for emergency services they provide on the HCTRA tollway system (Precincts 1 and 3).

Emergency Services District No. 13 already responds to incidents on HCTRA toll roads, but this agreement would make the county officially responsible for reimbursing them. It helps make sure the district is fairly paid for work that benefits all toll road users.

This is an Interlocal Agreement — a formal cost-sharing deal between two public agencies. The Harris County Toll Road Authority (HCTRA) would pay Emergency Services District No. 13 back for emergency responses on toll roads in Precincts 1 and 3.

The item was introduced on June 4, 2026, and is now before the full Commissioners Court for a vote.
