County powers and duties
Electronic. Updated biennially.
Compiled after every Legislative Regular Session by the Office of the Attorney General, this series comprises a list of Texas counties' powers and duties as they relate to regulating land use, regulating structures, platting and subdividing land, and providing and regulating water, sewer, and other utility services to residential property. Though compiled primarily for county judges, this title serves as a great reference to researchers interested in county powers. No commentary is provided; this is simply a listing of relevant statutes that is updated after every legislative session.
