Relating to the delegation of certain authority of a county judge in certain counties.

SB 1813 amends Texas Local Government Code to allow county judges in specific large or coastal counties to delegate certain duties to county commissioners. It applies only to counties with populations over 1.5 million, or counties with 350,000-370,000 residents adjacent to the Gulf of Mexico and next to a county with over 3.3 million people. The bill updates the code to define these eligibility criteria and formalizes the delegation process. The law takes effect September 1, 2025, and directly affects county governance structures in those designated counties.
