Current law authorizes the Harris County Commissioners Court to pay out of the county general funds costs and expenses for the transportation of senior citizens for civic, community, educational, and recreational activities within and outside the county. House Bill 1929 amends the Local Government Code to grant this authority to the Dallas County Commissioners Court. The bill additionally allows the commissioners courts of both counties to pay for the transportation of the senior citizens' caregivers for such activities and conditions the courts' authorization to pay for a senior citizen's and a caregiver's transportation costs on a majority of the costs and expenses being paid for the transportation of senior citizens.
